    Notable
    Mike shoots right handed, but he is left eye dominant. He learned this when he was starting shooting 7-8 years ago. He had been shooting with his right hand and looking with his right eye, but it was making him dizzy. Most shooters have both eyes open when they shoot, but he has to have his right eye closed and uses his off-set scope mount to help him focus. He has adjusted to this very well.

    Quotable
    "If you play against the other guy, you might lose. You need to focus and play your game. Slow down and take your time. If you start missing, don't play catch up. The slower you shoot, the better you do." He says, "You can be quick and lose and you can be slow and lose. With this speed format, you can be in or out pretty quick."
