Legit, the guy reminds me of my grandfather teaching us punk kids to shoot. Just utterly casual, but with decades of competition and practical shooting experience behind being able to be casual and smooth with whatever gear he had on hand.
We went camping the first time me and my next oldest cousin were expressing an interest. It was air rifles and air pistols that first time. My grandfather sets things up, takes the air pistol, assumes the same stance as this guy on the pic and drops a group so tight it was one small hole. No prep, no thinking, just a lifetime of practice.
I'm all enthusiastic, get my turn, and miss the entire target lol. Not a single pellet hit. But boy, was I imitating my grandfather. I thought so anyway lol.
