You might fare better with my other hobby then.

I shoot 10 metre Air Pistol to Olympic competition rules. Easy enough, you
just have to hold a 1 Kg pistol at arms length with one hand, line up the
sights perfectly, hold it still, and squeeze the impossibly sensitive (500
gramme pull - sounds a lot but it is nothing) trigger without disturbing
it.
Sounds easy? - you have to do it 60 times, and the 10 ring is only 16mm
across.

Tim.
