Despite the frost and the snow, the shooters participating in the Regional Winters do not give up and still go up to the platform.
Last weekend was spent under the banner of frost and snow throughout the Lombardy region which, however, did not frighten the shooters who competed for both the sixth round of the Olympic Pit Regional Championship and the opening round of the "Regional" of Double Trap.
Just to feel the pulse and evaluate how the pressure is within the norm, it is enough to consider that on the Mantuan platforms of the Tav Mattarona - Rivarolo, as regards the Trap in the West area, 143 shooters showed up while in the East, or in Arluno, 123 shooters were competing.
Even the first of the two rounds of the Double Trap Lombard Regional Championship did not suffer any repercussions. Looks now focused on the next appointments on Saturday and Sunday next, with still news of cold temperatures and probable snowflakes as possible bogeys.
But "captain winter", even if he insists on doing his job with a frown and a decided excess of zeal, once again it seems that he has found in the shooters and in their attachment to our sport ... bread for his teeth.
