| About Olympic ShootingOlympic Shooting isn't an event you're likely to see covered on the TV very often, though it is certainly as much fun to watch as, say, tennis. But that's not up to me... nobody at the TV networks ever consults me in these matters. Hmmph. Oh well, all I can do is offer you some online coverage and hope it satisfies your interest in the subject.About Olympic Shooting: Olympic Shooting has been played at most of the Olympic Games. The lineup of shooting activities has changed quite a bit over the years, as have the guns used, but it is still a big part of the Summer Games, and should continue to be for a long time to come.
Olympic Shooting History: Olympic Shooting has changed a lot over the years since it was first played in 1896. Shooting first began as a means of survival, rather than competition, and was a valuable tool for self-defense as well as a good means of obtaining food through hunting. Naturally when any group of people are doing the same thing, some do it better than others, and this is no doubt the reason why shooting competitions began.
