I saw this in the paper over the weekend, my nephew is one of these guys so I figured I'd post about it:

The Slidell Police Department’s Marksmen Team has only been competing since May, but their excellent aim and skill has earned them plaques, trophies and accolades from the competitive shooting community.

Officer Nick Knight said he got hooked on competitive shooting after being at a contest. He and Officer Danny Milan approached Police Chief Randy Smith earlier this year and proposed that the department form its own shooting team.

Congrats to these hard working officers. Keep up the good work!

Shooting Minor, no less-- and finishing 3 stages with a giant chunk of flesh taken out of his *trigger finger*.

They are all a great group of guys, and a blast to be around. Definitely going places.

I will be in New Iberia getting instruction from two of the best shooters on the planet.

And I could shoot the match from there to Slidell and still beat Dave, haha.
