00:00.009 --> 00:02.099
Is there an Olympic athlete that you

00:02.109 --> 00:04.276
are hoping to run into at the , at the

00:04.276 --> 00:07.099
games ? Honestly , from my experience

00:07.110 --> 00:10.380
of last time though , it was just every

00:10.390 --> 00:13.340
athlete you you ran into was someone

00:13.350 --> 00:16.010
and had something that was just pretty

00:16.020 --> 00:18.187
cool about them , you know , and , and

00:18.187 --> 00:20.187
everyone's unique in a way there wa

00:20.187 --> 00:22.409
there wasn't just one person was like ,

00:22.409 --> 00:24.631
oh , you're amazing . It's like they're

00:24.631 --> 00:26.742
all amazing man . They all made it to

00:26.742 --> 00:26.459
the Olympics . They've got something .

00:26.770 --> 00:29.940
So who are your biggest supporters who

00:30.100 --> 00:33.590
we um first and foremost , my

00:33.599 --> 00:36.479
parents , I mean , they got me here ,

00:36.490 --> 00:38.546
they raised me , right ? And they're

00:38.546 --> 00:40.657
always supporting me no matter what .

00:40.909 --> 00:44.450
And then , I mean , it's the pit crew

00:44.459 --> 00:47.000
of the army marksmanship unit and

00:47.009 --> 00:48.787
that's something that I've been

00:48.787 --> 00:51.459
thinking about of late . It's just ,

00:51.750 --> 00:54.479
you know , people see the , the one

00:54.490 --> 00:56.750
person on the firing line , but what I

00:56.759 --> 01:00.569
see is the gunsmiths and all the

01:00.580 --> 01:03.049
work they put into it , uh getting ammo

01:03.060 --> 01:05.860
right , getting ammo , you know , the

01:05.870 --> 01:08.139
right stuff and , and tested and , and

01:08.150 --> 01:11.059
the gun shooting good and the coaching

01:11.069 --> 01:13.013
that goes into it through our team

01:13.013 --> 01:15.069
chiefs and assistants and , and also

01:15.069 --> 01:17.125
the coaching and camaraderie through

01:17.125 --> 01:19.347
the team itself , you know , I've got ,

01:19.347 --> 01:21.125
you know , a whole team of , of

01:21.125 --> 01:23.125
supporters . And so with that being

01:23.125 --> 01:25.291
said , I mean , it's like a NASCAR pit

01:25.291 --> 01:27.347
crew right there . They're , they're

01:27.347 --> 01:29.513
efficient , they know how to work with

01:29.513 --> 01:31.513
me . Um They're supporting me every

01:31.513 --> 01:33.680
step of the way through the good times

01:33.680 --> 01:35.791
and the ones that are kind of rough .

01:35.791 --> 01:38.010
So , yeah , those are my biggest

01:38.019 --> 01:41.910
supporters . What do you

01:41.919 --> 01:44.030
do to relax when you're away from the

01:44.030 --> 01:47.889
range ? I , uh I like to fish

01:47.900 --> 01:50.067
so I'll go fishing . I've got a little

01:50.067 --> 01:52.289
kayak that I've got all rigged up and I

01:52.289 --> 01:54.511
can , it's light enough that I can just

01:54.511 --> 01:56.400
manhandle it into the back of the

01:56.400 --> 01:58.400
pickup and go over to either to the

01:58.400 --> 02:00.511
chattahoochee or pons on post or , or

02:00.511 --> 02:02.567
just , you know , the flint wherever

02:02.567 --> 02:05.150
really . Um And , and , and go , we

02:05.209 --> 02:07.830
line and , and enjoy the , enjoy being

02:07.839 --> 02:10.470
out on the water . Um , but also if I ,

02:10.479 --> 02:12.590
if I'm not out on the water , I'm out

02:12.590 --> 02:14.923
working in the woods doing stuff either ,

02:14.923 --> 02:16.701
you know , bush hogging or , or

02:16.701 --> 02:18.789
clearing trees or doing stuff on the

02:18.800 --> 02:21.830
property . Uh I like doing it because

02:21.839 --> 02:23.950
it shows progress , you know , hard ,

02:23.950 --> 02:25.783
it's , it's hard work that shows

02:25.783 --> 02:27.950
progress and it's something completely

02:27.950 --> 02:29.950
different than shooting and it , it

02:29.950 --> 02:32.172
really has helped my mental state being

02:32.172 --> 02:34.339
able to be outside and , and enjoy the

02:34.339 --> 02:33.190
outdoors
