I know we can't make policy here but I have a question:
I enjoy shooting HFT. At 68 the muscles and bones enjoy the rest on the allowed use of a bucket. But I still get around pretty well. It occurs to me that it would be nice and we would bring more shooters into the sport if we allowed wheelchairs. Some of my associates (my fellow disabled veterans) and similarly aged would enjoy some competition in their lives. Maybe the regulations allow this. I don't know. I was just wondering.

On GTA and CAPOF, if you are in a wheelchair, shoot the comps. They want you to shoot the comps. This is all about having fun, not being left out. The only thing is, they say, that you can not use the chair as a rest, that's all. Check out the rules. They want you to shoot the comps and have fun doing it.
