Join me as I talk with Graeme Foote about Project Mapleseed, a Canadian version of the American Appleseed marksmanship program, as well as his recent competition in the Snipers Hide cup.
Graeme is a talented photographer and the owner of http://www.amputee-shooter.com where he documents his journey in competitive marksmanship and inspires others to overcome their challenges. Being born with only one hand, Graeme has has seen rifle marksmanship as an extremely positive sport where the playing field has been levelled. Graeme and his friends have also started an "Action Rifle Rimfire" league where they introduce others into PRS style marksmanship while shooting affordable .22 ammo.
