It’s only natural; hunting is in our genes. Being the best is in our DNA. The evolutionary drive that the spoils go to the winner is built in our cells. So it only makes sense that when shooters and hunters are exposed to a shooting sport that mimics hunting wild game, we embrace it and use it as the yardstick to measure our skills.
