If it had nothing but some manufacturer's logo on it I'd be right there w/ya, but when you start putting the site, sponsors and shooting associations on it, it becomes a symbol. Wear it proudly my friend.

Wow that was completely over-thought out.
It is indeed a shirt..not a tattoo

It's definitely a matter of perspective. Coming in as a new shooter I obviously see someone wearing the the shirt differently than you vets probably do. Let me ask you guys this, what goes thru your mind when when you see a soldier in uniform vs some guy in surplus camo? Hopefully there's a level of disctinction there when it comes to professionalism and expertise. That's what new shooters see.

I felt somewhat mortified the first time I wore the jersey, but in the end, it really is just a shirt.Sasquatauch said:

I have to say this thread took a turn that I did not see coming.
So now I don't know if you are supposed to be a GM shooter to wear one of our jerseys or if it is OK to suck as long as your helpful?

Let me throw one more long-thinking idea out there. NASCAR got it's start from moonshiners. Moonshiners eventually got to racing their cars against one another for fun. It drew attention and now you have have one of the most lucrative and athlete-accesible sports in the US. See a coorelation?

I bet Burk's sampled a little moonshine before

So in order for one to feel comfortable in a boomershooter jersey there has to be a moonshine race between military and dudes wearing camo while newbies sit along the sidelines?
Hell, sign me up !! Ill be wearing my boomershooter jersey holding my D class card.

I can't recall the last time I saw you at a match. I think you were at a Heartland match when I shot my snub nose revolver. You probably beat me then. Good jobDux-R-Us said:

I'm not good at all but I'll gladly wear the jersey. I didn't think skills were a requirement. Safety, promoting the sport, promoting the forum and having fun should be the requirements of members who wear the jerseys.

It's a bonding thing. Plus I'm gonna really make the shirt look good.
Always remember it's not how you do, it's how you look.

Good post Steve. It's worth every penny when someone at Walmart or the gas station asks what I do too. The more people that see shooting as a sport the better.Steve McGinley said:If you're wearing a shirt to shoot a match, might as well wear one that gets you a chance to win a pistol
I didn't get one before this year because I knew I wasn't good enough to represent, but after shooting matches with all the good folks on here it isn't about how good you are, it's about getting out shooting matches, promoting gun owners to becoming shooters, and having fun!
I'm good enough to finish last at a match (been there, done that), but I've got a shirt on the way!

Its even better when.people ask about the sport when they see you wearing your jersey AND you remembered to put pants on before you went out.
Don't ask but I think.I.may have gotten a few more females involved in the sport after that day

Ouch. Speaking of cold, you guys are brutal. Love it. That is the way it should be, everyone busting balls and having fun.
