Reaping Knowledge
Shooting competitions are my second hobby. For a couple of decades I have competed in Olympic style fencing, both Foil and Epee competitions. This past weekend I Competed in the NC Fencing Divisionals in both the Division 2/ Division 3 Mens Foil and Epee qualifiers to the 2017 US Fencing Nationals to be held in Salt Lake City, Utah.
In the Foil event, things did not go so well. The second day (which I was more focused on) went much better. I earned first place in the event, qualifying me to compete in the Div 2, Div 3, and Vet 40 Mens Epee competitions at the 2017 US Fencing Nationals. I am the fencer in the black jacket in the photo, with the second and third place finishers standing in the photo with me.
Just an added note, My two competitors ages added together don't add up to mine.
