Default RE: Who Practices Year-Round? Is it REALLY Necessary?

I shoot about 9 months out of the year. I take the winter off primarily.

Although during the spring and summer I shoot with my neighbors and we play games with 3D targets such as Big Bull ( it is like playing horse in basketball but the 1st person shoots and you have to follow them with the same shot and if you miss you get a letter) and we also play 21 ( in this game the 1st person shoots and everyone playing has to take the same shot. You then score by where you hit and the 1st person who shot must make a scorable hit for the others to follow. You have the 12 ring, 10 ring, 8 ring and the body which is 5.)

These games really help with hunting situations because you shoot standing, kneeling, sitting and from differnt elevations and angles at the 3D targets. Also the competition is there to really make you try to shoot well. It is also a lot of fun.
