On July 24, in the 10-meter air rifle competition of the Tokyo Olympics, Chinese athlete Yang Qian won the first Olympic gold, and one of the shots was a 10.9 ring. On the target paper for the ten-meter air rifle competition, the 10.9 ring is only 0.5 mm in diameter. In other words, placing a one-yuan coin with a hole in the center of it ten meters away, if it can hit the small hole in the coin, it is equivalent to the 10.9 ring shot by Yang Qian.
Therefore, shooting is a particularly delicate project, which tests the athlete's psychological quality very much. A slight change in mentality will miss the target.
Shooting was originally a sport for men and women. It wasn't until the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games that it was set up as a special women's team. Shooting items are divided into three categories according to the types of guns, namely rifles, pistols, and shotguns. There are different project specifications according to different distances and shooting postures.
Shooting is not the same as military sniper. Airsoft shooting is generally carried out indoors, and the range is shorter than that of sniper. Sniper rifles can easily sniper targets over a kilometer. Pay special attention to the outdoor temperature, humidity and wind speed. Secondly, the air gun not only has a smaller target than a sniper rifle, but also has a much smaller recoil than a sniper rifle.
It is interesting that shooting athletes do not require good eyesight, because shooting sports emphasizes a kind of overall muscle memory, focusing more on the gun and the whole body instead of the target. In the scope of the air rifle, there is no magnification function at all. This means that Yang Qian and other shooters can only aim at the front and rear target holes in the scope and their naked eyes. In addition, it is the "aiming feeling" that is beyond vision, which is cultivated by years of hard training.
