Americans Sharpen Shooting Skills Sunday, June 20, 2004Shooting Sports LOS ANGELES — Shooting for sport is becoming more and more popular across the country. Along with Pilates and windsurfing, clay target shooting and handgun target shooting are some of America's fastest growing sports. Some 20 million Americans participate in recreational gun activities.Those who shoot clays call it "golf with guns.""It is being looked at more as a sport and recreation, it is not all about hunting," said Rick Matulich of the San Diego Shotgun Sports Association.Target shooting dates back to the 14th century, and it became an Olympic sport in 1896. And while some worry about recreational gun safety, the government says a person is more likely to get hurt riding a bike, playing basketball or swimming."It is a great sport," said Bret Erickson , 2004 U.S. Olympic shotgun team member. "It is a sport for all ages; it is a sport for the whole family and it is a huge growing sport."http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,123134,00.html
