My Latest Hobbies
Written on September 10, 2009 by Jeremy
Clay Target Shooting
About three to four months ago my brother got me into trap shooting. In case you aren’t familiar, it’s where you shoot clay targets, known as birds, out of the air. Let me note that I had never shot a shotgun in my life prior to this. After going to the local gun club for the first time, I was hooked.
I have since gotten into two additional forms of target shooting, skeet and sporting clays. If I ever get around to getting a video clip of myself I’ll make sure to post it so you will have some idea of what I’m talking about.
I’m actually surprised I got so interested in this sport. I have never hunted and probably never will. It’s probably a combination of wanting to get better and the feeling of getting a perfect round that really keeps me hooked. Of course having the club filled with friendly people, all willing to help out and provide tips, is another bonus…even if they are all 30+ years older than myself, lol.
Biking
Another hobby I’ve been getting back into is biking. I’m basically just trying to get some more exercise and lose weight with this hobby. It certainly beats using the elliptical indoors.
Golf
I haven’t been golfing in over a month (due to a back injury), which is quite a drought given the fact that I was golfing almost every day at one point this summer. The time off from golf has actually been a good thing, as I am spending a lot more time in the office. I’m sure I’ll be back out there before long and I imagine it’ll be more of a weekly activity than a daily activity.
