Question: saw the shooting finals (ling down, targets) and their jackets are very heavy duty technical, all sorts of straps & layers etc. Anyone know why … seems very complicated & expensive?
(Im sure there’s a similar question on shooting forums about bicycles)
Minimises movements of the shooter, leading to greater accuracy.
One of the Malaysian shooters (Gold medal winner at last Comm Games) has had to pull out as her jacket got lost in transit. They’re appealing her exclusion.

Pretty sure they let her shoot in the end.
ahhh … thanks
Shooting isn’t til Thursday.
