Bernd Klinger has provided a great book for the beginner with numerous photographs to aid competitors in their pursuit. Equipment is covered in great detail along with clothing, sights, and a complete breakdown on all the positions. The photographs are detailed to show specifically what not to do and what we should all be working toward as a solid position. This book will not go into depth on the mental aspect and serious training issues dealing with competition. That is destined for a second book. This book will provide enough thought to review and diagnose a variety of situations with positions, equipment, trigger control, and breathing.
