Feinwerkbau P8X Air Pistol Review

Interview with Paul Hughes, Sport Shooting Psychologist
Paul Hughes is a brilliant mental coach that I got to meet thanks to his posts on Instagram. Luckily, I got to be part of the first cohort of his course and it was totally worth it 🙂 My mental game has improved a lot and the tools he provided (review of the course coming soon) are proving helpful in my profesional and personal life. He’s been the lead psychologist of the Olympic Great Britain shooting squad among other positions and now he’s made himself available to the world 🙂 (contact details at the end of the interview). As a sports psychologist, he doesn’t work in isolation with athletes, rather directly on the range alongside shooters and coaches. His focus is on helping athletes to minimise psychological error and enable their technical skill to be delivered consistently.

Sport Psychology Applied to Sport Shooting
Hector Montalvo Angulo is a Spanish level 1 national pistol coach that I met thanks to an invitation to participate in an online competition via WhatsApp during the first COVID lockdown. Among the many things that were shared in that group was this conference he gave at the olympic shooting federation of Valentia (Real Federación Valenciana de Tiro Olímpico). As soon as I started reading it I thought that it had to be published and Hector immediately gave permission.

10m Air Target Range Construction Book Review and Giveaway
I love practical books (I’ve written three manuals myself and a target shooting journal) and when I saw Graham sharing his book on social media I immediately contacted him to get a hold on a copy and write a review. Why? Because I could see the potential for helping out sport shooters around the world and make it easier to bring in more people to practice and love sport shooting through having a lot of inexpensive and easy to build and maintain air pistol and rifle ranges. Graham has delivered.
