Like every single olympic sport can only be performed in a very specific and particular set of circumstances. What is this bizarre gatekeeping?
It’s like if they wanted to have motorsports in the Olympics but they only did go-karts and 49cc motorcycles. The people who show up to compete will be talented, but they aren’t driving F1 or MotoGP.
What do you mean? Why is more power in the equipment being used automatically better? Shooting is a test of accuracy. I’m sorry you see sports through such a boring lens but most of us don’t. And in any case, that’s just your opinion of what you are more entertained by - there’s no need to disparage the sport and disrespect the athletes just because you’re not personally interested in it.
What do you mean?
Olympic shooting is so specialized and restricted that you can no longer claim its champions are the best in the world at the general sport of shooting.
Why is more power in the equipment being used automatically better?
Because more power is required to reach the distances where everything matters more.
Shooting is a test of accuracy.
Uh-huh. Do I really need to explain how one degree of error is a bigger issue at 1000 meters vs 50?
there’s no need to disparage the sport and disrespect the athletes
When OP is implying my tribe can’t shoot I take it as disrespect and I’m compelled to belittle the competition itself in response.
