00:04.440 --> 00:07.300
Malone 15 moving target range . Uh ,

00:07.310 --> 00:09.700
competitors are given about 4.5 minutes

00:09.760 --> 00:12.310
to engage 24 targets . They've got 32

00:12.310 --> 00:14.860
rounds between the two of them . Uh

00:14.870 --> 00:17.000
really test the fundamentals of rifle

00:17.000 --> 00:19.080
marksmanship being sight , picture

00:19.090 --> 00:21.034
trigger squeeze , breathing . It's

00:21.034 --> 00:23.257
compounded by all the physical activity

00:23.257 --> 00:25.312
throughout the day . They've already

00:25.312 --> 00:27.479
done the run the foot march , obstacle

00:27.479 --> 00:29.590
course orienteering . Uh , as you can

00:29.590 --> 00:31.646
tell , it's heating up out here . So

00:31.646 --> 00:31.140
these guys are pretty tired when they

00:31.140 --> 00:33.196
get here and they've got to focus on

00:33.196 --> 00:35.690
relaxing breathing and engaging these

00:35.690 --> 00:38.260
moving targets as they pop up pro non

00:38.260 --> 00:40.093
supportive position and kneeling

00:40.093 --> 00:41.982
position . It's pretty physically

00:41.982 --> 00:44.260
demanding . Really , really test their ,

00:44.260 --> 00:46.316
their focus and mental resolve , the

00:46.316 --> 00:48.482
kneeling position , the best way to do

00:48.482 --> 00:50.593
it . Uh you get down , you put a knee

00:50.593 --> 00:52.816
in the ground and you actually sit down

00:52.816 --> 00:54.927
all day on your heel and you can rest

00:54.927 --> 00:56.982
your elbow on your knee . So kind of

00:56.982 --> 00:59.204
bone supports bone , but it's tiring to

00:59.204 --> 01:01.260
get in that position . So that's the

01:01.260 --> 01:03.038
most stable , It's not the most

01:03.038 --> 01:02.830
comfortable , most comfortable , You

01:02.830 --> 01:04.990
kind of stand up , prop your leg up ,

01:05.000 --> 01:07.167
but then you get wobbly because you're

01:07.167 --> 01:09.389
so tired , so it's tired either way and

01:09.389 --> 01:11.444
doesn't feel real good . I think the

01:11.444 --> 01:13.556
most challenging aspect of this event

01:13.556 --> 01:15.667
is combining the stress behind trying

01:15.667 --> 01:17.940
to engage your targets with being

01:17.940 --> 01:19.996
physically tired and everything that

01:19.996 --> 01:21.884
comes with it . I think the small

01:21.884 --> 01:23.773
things add up your tired stuff is

01:23.773 --> 01:25.996
smallest sweat , getting in your eyes ,

01:25.996 --> 01:27.884
combining that with the stress of

01:27.884 --> 01:29.940
wanting to hit these targets because

01:29.940 --> 01:31.884
for the competition specifically ,

01:31.884 --> 01:33.996
it'll reduce your time and that's the

01:33.996 --> 01:35.060
overall point is to win it .
