One thing we tend to ignore is natural ability.  Some people are just naturals at some skills when it might take the average person years to come close to duplicating that level of performance.

Getting 8 of 10 rounds (80%) on target from that distance under pressure and likely feeling the effects of adrenaline takes more than just range time.  Even Cops can't do half that well on average.  And this guy is only 22.

If all it took was hours of practice, anyone with enough motivation could have been Tiger Woods.   

I've taken a skill builder with this 1 guy who just transitioned from air soft to guns. He is one of the top shots in the SB.  IDK how much gun range time he has, but this was like his first SB and few months later his 2nd or 3rd one. But the key is airsofter to guns.

I read somewhere, forget where, but the good guy learned shooting from his Grandpa.  not from military or law enforcement.
so maybe he started shooting really young.  he may have 17 years shooting experience
I started shooting BB guns when I was 5 years old.  not to say I am a natural or anything like that, but shooting is something I really enjoy

in sports you can be naturally gifted or a genetic freak, but like they say "hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard"
even if you genetically gifted, you still need to train bc like they say "winners train, losers complain"
I like little quotes like that   

My buddies sons play airsoft, or used to.  One of them is pretty damn good.  Has an HK 416 clone and with just a front sight, out shoots his friends with RDS.  Pretty darn close to shot from the hip, Quick and the Dead level!

I find it amusing that when a Caucasian introduces firearms training to an Asian person their speech slows down and they increase the amount of hand gestures. I get this a lot when I go to the mainland. "Wall" is the new "Head" It's called the second stage of a trigger.

Congrats on making something about race when it isn’t racially motivated at all. Here’s your trophy:    you’d want the same
 if you were training with someone who was also having to engage with an audience while filming, unless you’re of equal or greater skill

Lucas Botkin always does that when filming with others. Either you haven’t seen much of his videos or you don’t pay attention, even with featuring others (including Garand Thumb and his brothers), he slows down to accentuate his words and actions. He did a video with Mojo (Marine, LE/ firearms expert) and did the same. Keep in mind he is Asian as well

Keep up the victim mindset. You’re gonna criticize him because he doesn’t use the same vernacular as you?

Lucas Botkin of T-Rex Arms is great with firearms. Either you haven’t seen much of his videos or you don’t pay attention, be sue when he gestures anyone (including Garand Thumb), he slows down to accentuate his words. He did a video with Mojo and did the same

oh my.
What is a Lucas Botkin? Was he former Delta, space shuttle dorr gunner? No matter. What an awesome shooter he is!
BTW, Garand Thumb stole that name from a CMP blogger way back when  http://garandthumb.com/about-me/ ...ask his dad Travis Haley
