I try and convince the readers to send us "Shooter" poses so they too could be blog "superstars," but I guess I'm being a bit to hypocritical...as I had yet to actually throw my "Shooter" up on the page. Well, there have been several occasions to which I had the opportunity in some great locations, I just seemed to be missing one key piece to the puzzle...a camera. Well this past weekend "Hot for Teacher" and I went out and one of the main thoughts in my mind was to have her take a great "Shooter" pic of me. I attempted to talk her into shooting with me, but she's just not ready for it...yet...

This is an eagle statue in Roger Williams Park in Providence, RI. I actually attempted to climb up on the shoulders of this beast, but maybe I'm just getting to old for that sort of thing. For those of you that don't know who Roger Williams is, well he pretty much built Rhode Island with his bare hands. He is the Chuck Norris of Rhode Island.
Jack and Buck will be doing the critiquing on this one....enjoy....
Cobra here with my evaluation of this shooter....Good lord, where to begin? First of all, is that really Cpt. Morgan or a pilgrim? Plymouth Rock, ho!!! I think upon closer examination his hat is actually brown and more 'Indiana Jones-like" but here it looks like something worn at the first Thanksgiving. Next, the hypnotizer looks good to me but his form lacks...commitment. When you give The Shooter...you must GIVE it. Commit to it, get a better angle there, stare down that millenium falcon and let him know you mean it. Finally....The Shooter can not be done with sunglasses on. I'm sorry, it just can't. You have to look into the eyes of the beast you are about to slay and let it know...."You will be mine". Now, I've seen Cpt. give The Shooter before to an unsuspecting woman and I have to say....this was not his best effort. All of that being said....I know that Cpt. is originally a southpaw and is performing The Shooter from his weak side, so I have to grade on a curve. I like the environment that is surrounding him, there isn't a cloud in the sky and there is a smile on his face. On top of that, it wouldn't surprise me much if this 'beast' now sits in the residence of the Cpt. He is that kind of guy. If I had to grade just off of this performance, Cpt. is looking at a B-, but....because I know Cpt. very well and I know of his exploits....his grade is raised to a solid B+. You fools think you can do better??? Get out there and do it. Hopefully Paine gets his eval up here soon.....We may even have Buck throw up an eval just to give some more shit to Cpt.
Buck here with my evaluation of this shooter.... I think if you could skew that eagle statue to the side and put a bit of an angle in its neck that it would be performing the perfect shooter. Honestly.....look at it. Outstreched left wing just leaning into the side of the picture, right wing tucked back in the perfecting position ready to be let loose and dangle freely at the side. The eagle is ready to pounce and take control of any situation. Now back to Morgan. Cpt. you don't look so much as a man performing the shooter and preparing to say "How you doin?" to some unsuspecting young lady, but rather a famished man weathering the unbearable load of years the good Lord has thrust upon your shoulders. You look weary, you look puzzled, you look like your wearing depression era slacks/trousers.....What's up with that? But, seriously other than the violations in style your overall presentation is decent. Good mechanics, OK posture. Left knee is at a good angle of attack, but your back is looking a bit stiff. You need to let the shooter flow freely and a smirk on the face wouldn't hurt either. You're having fun out there Cpt., let the people know it! I give the eagle an A for a rock solid performance and the potential it can exude in any scenario. I give Cpt. a B on form and D on presentation, which we'll average out to an overall grade of C.

How did you get "Hot for Teacher" to go out in public with you with that getup on?
I had the leather coat on and a whip, but she made me take it off...
I think that I'm going to leave Shooter critiquing up to Professor Paine...you two jokers don't know what you are talking about...I have seen both of your attempts at shooters, Buck yours being the first and I must say that it wasn't nearly as impressive as mine...and you Jack, I'm not even going to get started on you....
I told you Buck that he would get defensive....
I'm simply waiting for a more "professional" opinion....
Mine was with the World Series trophy. I could have been doing the shooter while popping a squat on a toilet next to it and it still would have been money...
Paine was introduced to the whole Shooter revolution by me.....so take that for what its worth. He's currently out of action for the moment as he's in the process of moving to Minnesota.
Awesome. I didn't know you guys had made the graphic for the evolution of the shooter. I love it.
Cpt. Morgan gets all the credit for the tshirts and designs. He's the one who puts all the hard work in on that stuff. A job well done.
Extra P, that one is for you...great idea with that...I will have to see if I can get it on the tshirts....Jack...I may bring out your "shooter" for some a one on one match between yours and mine and see who comes out the victor?
Ya, Cpt. Love the graphic and yes I would wear a shirt with that on it.
I saw an accidental "Shooter" the other day and it was a thing of beauty. I was working at the desk and someone in the office leans over to loosen up their back. He let the arm hang while the other was on his knee. I thought it was a joke at first. I asked why he was doing the Shooter in the office but he had no idea what I was talking about.
If I bust out the shooter, women flock to me and faint. I would perceive that as flirting on my part and would deem that as disrespectful to The Lovely Dentist so I'm going to pass.
I hope you spread the word like the Gospel
