Miko, geared up for 120 round stage
The London Telegraph had an article in August about a 6 year old Practical shooter in the Philippines:
Miko travels across the country participating in national junior competitions.
Competing against children ten years his senior (in the 9-17 age group), Miko is now looking to travel to America to test his talents.
For Miko’s father, Cresencio "Mike" Pascua Andres JR, the boy’s passion and natural ability for practical shooting has been carefully monitored by his family and shooting community.
"It is within the family and friends that Miko was influenced to love and enjoy the practical shooting sport," says Mike. "Because of his interest, we took turns in teaching, training and coaching him on the basics of the sport."
Cool… I’m impressed he can rack a slide at 6.
BTW: Practical shooting is one of the fastest growing sports in the Philippines.
