Almighty Coach

Dancing, yoga, and runaway, ten days of inexplicable training, Holly felt only confused and overwhelmed.

Although Hawley is a shooting player, he is also a world champion for many years. He has seen many excellent coaches and knows what other people's physical training is. This strange training method is the first time he has encountered it.

Every time, when Hawley came home and thought about the training course of this day, he would feel that he was wasting time, but every time he saw Li Dai, he would involuntarily obey Li Dai ’s training arrangements. Li Dai ’s Every word that came into Holly's ears was full of authority, as if a general had issued a command to the soldiers, which must be executed without any doubt.

Holly does n’t know how to do this. In terms of age, Li Dai is younger than him, but Holly feels that even the head coach of the US national team ’s shooting project is not as good as Li Dai in aura. .

However, after these ten days of inexplicable short training, Holly also temporarily suspended his training course. He is going to Tennessee to participate in the shooting championship, which is also a shooting competition for the World Championship.

In the United States, the selection of the shooting world championships is the same as the track and field events. No matter how powerful you are before, no matter how good your past results are, or if you have won many world championships and Olympic championships, you must pass the domestic selection competition. Only after the screening, can you participate in the World Championships. The qualifying competition did not qualify and the world record holders could not participate.

The shooting championship was held in Tennessee. The main reason for the location of the competition here is that there are more shooting enthusiasts in Tennessee.

When it comes to more guns in the United States, many people first think of Texas. Texas cowboys never hide their love for guns. There are also online photos of Texas residents walking around the supermarket with M16 on their backs .

However, the number of guns per capita in Tennessee is higher than that in Texas. The residents here also love guns. The National Rifle Association often holds gun exhibitions in Tennessee. Whenever there is a gun ban, Tennessee There must be a march and rally to protest the gun ban. It is worth mentioning that the famous civil rights fighter Martin Luther King was assassinated by an automatic rifle in Tennessee.

In this place where gun sales are very good, it is a matter of course that the shooting sport has received more attention from people, and gun manufacturers will not hesitate to sponsor various shooting competitions. Here, well-known design athletes like Holly have become idols in the minds of many people.

...

On the wall of the hallway inside the shooting hall are hanging some posters about the basic knowledge of the shooting project. Li Dai stood in front of one of the posters and carefully read the content above.

"Lee, how are you looking at this? This is the basic knowledge of shooting. Generally, the first time people watch the game will pay attention to these things." Blake's voice sounded from behind, while handing a cup of cola Li Dai.

"I was watching the shooting competition for the first time." Li Dai took the Coke, and then said: "I am referring to the first time to watch the game live, before I watched live TV."

"It turned out to be this way." Blake walked to Li Dai and introduced: "The Olympic shooting game mainly uses three firearms, pistols, rifles and 12-caliber double-barreled shotguns. The double-barreled shotguns are mainly used for UFO projects. , Pistols and rifles are sports pistols. "

"In the official competition, the competition items of the pistol are men's 5m pistol slow fire, men's 25m pistol rapid fire, men's 1m air pistol, women's 25m pistol slow fire speed shot and women's 1m air pistol. Rifle, 5m rifle prone shot and 5m rifle three positions, of which 5m rifle prone shot is a men's exclusive project. "

"Among all these shooting events, the five-meter rifle three poses are recognized as the most difficult shooting event. The shooting distance is far enough, and the game time is very long. The three poses accumulate 12 shots, each shot is very important, and enter the final One more shot is needed afterwards. The five-meter rifle three postures are known as a marathon for shooting. "

Blake said that he brought Li Dai to another poster, pointed to a gun target painted on it, and then said: "This is the gun target used by the 5m air rifle, one to one real size, The diameter of this gun target is 154.4 mm, and the inside of the four rings is painted black. The diameter of this black area is 16.4 mm. "

Li Dai looked at this one-to-one gun target. He estimated that the range within 9 rings was as large as a dollar coin, which means that the score within 9 rings was equivalent to a 50-meter strike. One dollar coin.

For professional-level shooting athletes, a 9-ring is equivalent to an unsuccessful result. For example, the Olympic level contest, the first 12 shots must have at least 117 rings before they can be promoted to the final coach, which means 9 The number of rings cannot exceed thirty.

"Put a dollar coin fifty meters away, I may not be able to see it!" Li Dai secretly murmured in his mouth, and a long sigh followed his mouth: "Look at this gun target, me and Adam Holly Than, I am blind! "

"Who said no! Those shooting athletes simply have an eagle eye, and mortals like me often can't find matching targets even when playing consumer entertainment." Blake said with empathy.

Li Dai pointed to the gun target and continued, "Are there any sights on the guns used by athletes?"

"There is a sight on the gun, but the sight does not have a zoom function. There may be only a red dot on this sight, or it may be a cross, which can be used to assist in aiming." Blake explained these and pointed out the road outside. The fast food truck on the side went on to say: "Shall we get something to eat first? Adam Holly participates in a 5m rifle three poses, but a game takes a few hours! We can even go to a movie It ’s too late to come back. "

...

On the large screen in the shooting hall, the information of the game and the list of contestants are constantly being broadcast, and there is a group of spectators around.

"It's really a crowd of powerful players, the strongest shooters in the United States gathered."

"That is of course, after all, it is a qualifier for the shooting world championships."

"I saw Adam Holly's name. I think with his strength, it should not be difficult to qualify."

"But it is difficult for him to get the first place. After all, Prince has also come to participate. In the last two years of the National Shooting Championship, Prince has shot Holly in the last shot!"

"Oh, lore? Do you think that is really lore? Obviously, Holly's last shot is not well shot. He leads every time and throws the last shot every time."

"Yeah, the nickname" The Last Shot of Tragedy "is not in vain."

When everyone talked about Holly's last shot, he shook his head helplessly.

...

Adam Holly appeared in the shooting gallery and was immediately surrounded by a group of fans. As Blake said, on the international stage, people remembered him because of the last shot missed during the Holly Olympics. In the United States, he A world champion, he is still a hero in the hearts of the people.

Signing, taking a group photo, and finally meeting the fans, Holly took his rifle, walked to the venue of the game, and began to debug his equipment.

"Adam, I heard that you are going to retire a few days ago, and thought you would not come to the competition. Now it seems to be totally fake news!" A curly-haired young man came over.

The curly-haired youth is named Prince, and is Holly's main domestic competitor. In the past two years of the National Shooting Championships, Prince has defeated Holly and has become the United States' "first brother" in the 5m rifle project.

Holly looked back at Prince. He did not answer, but responded with cold eyes, like an elderly lion king, facing the aggressive challenge of a young lion.

Prince went on to say: "I heard that you recently signed up for a fitness training center? To be honest, this is really something I can't imagine! We are shooting athletes, not those with developed limbs, running and jumping on the sports ground. Guys. Shooting is also a quiet sport. How can physical training help us? You are in a hurry, and I think you are also in a hurry. "

Prince knew that Hawley went to the fitness training center. This is not a surprise. Prince is Hawley's main competitor. It is a normal thing to keep an eye on the opponent's situation.

Facing Prince's remarks, Holly still didn't speak, but he felt as if he had been stabbed in the heart.

"Prince is right. I shouldn't waste time on physical training. Think about what I have done these days. I listen to the brainwashing music and dance. I lay on the mat and practice yoga in front of the mirror. Going to the training center, what's the use? Oh, besides that massage, Coach Li's arm massage is indeed very comfortable. But what I need is not the relaxation of the arm, what I want is not to be inaccurate in the last shot! Maybe in I really did something wrong in this matter. When the game is over, I have to end this training contract after going back. "

Hawley began to worry about debugging his rifle.

...

Li Dai and Blake really had a meal and waited for them to return to the arena. The game has been more than half, and the big screen shows the results of the players participating in the competition.

"Hawley's current score is 76 rings, ranking first, while Prince is 75 rings, ranking second. There are three others with 74 rings, nine people with 73 rings, and a large row behind The score is 72 rings. It seems that the gap is very small. "Li Dai said.

"This is the case of the five-meter rifle three-poster game. The gap is actually not large. After the 12 shots are completed, the gap between the players entering the final will never be greater than 5 rings. In fact, as long as the difference is more than 3 rings, it is equal to It is to say goodbye to the ranks of winning the championship. In the last shot, it is impossible to recover the gap of more than 3 rings. "Blake explained.

In the five-meter rifle three-poster game, the prone position, the kneeling position, and the standing position hit four shots in each of these three positions, for a total of 12 shots and a full ring of 12 shots. These 12 shots are only calculated for integer rings. For example, the player scores a 9.5 ring. When calculating the score, it is only counted as 9 rings. There is no rounding, and only the fractions are simply removed.

Under this scoring rule, there is no difference between a 9.9 ring shot and a 9.1 ring shot. There are actually nine rings when scoring, but a 9.9 ring shot and a 1.1 ring shot. It is the gap between the 9th ring and the 10th ring.

After 12 shots, the eight people with the best scores enter the final contest. Each person shoots another shot, and the decimal point is calculated for each shot. At this time, the best score of the gun target is 1.9 rings, so in theory, the last shot is able to score 19 rings.

In the last ten shots, due to the calculation of the decimal point, the gap between the 9.9 ring and the 1.1 ring is no longer a ring, but a .2 ring. This situation is obviously more difficult for chasers who are behind the ring number. . Previously, one shot could chase one ring, but now one shot can only catch up to a few points, and there is only a chance of ten shots.

In the world's top competitions, the strength of the contestants is very strong ~ www.readwn.com ~ The players who can stay in the last eight are the strong players in the strong hands. Anyone can hit numbers above 1.5 rings, so in the last ten shots, once the gap exceeds two rings, the probability of catching up is almost zero.

...

The five-meter rifle with three poses is worthy of the title of "shooting marathon". After Li Dai returned to the arena, he waited another hour for the contestants to complete the first 12 shots.

"The results came out. Adam Holley's total score was 1174 rings, including 399 in the prone position, 39 rings in the standing position, and 36 rings in the kneeling position. Holly's prone position was much better than the standing and kneeling positions." Li Daiwang scored Said the card.

"This is normal. The 5m rifle project has a special prone position competition, so the contestants will practice the prone position specifically, and the results in the prone position will also be better. You see that the second overall score is Prince. His performance in the prone position was also 399 rings, and the third and fourth place in the prone position was 39 rings. "Blake continued:

"Prince's result is also 1174 ring. Currently he and Holly are tied for the first place. The third and fourth place are the 1172 ring. They still have the hope to catch up, but the fifth place starts and basically withdraws from the championship. The battle is on. Next, it's time for the final ten shots to win! "
