VI Shooting
What is Vi Shooting?
Visual impaired shooting is an adapted version of sighted shooting for people with visual impairment.
This sport is open to anyone with a visual impairment. The discipline of VI shooting is a challenge of accuracy and control in which the competitor uses an air rifle to fire a series of shots at a stationary target. Competitors use an audio signal to guide them in their aiming, with the audio signal rising in pitch as the point of aim moves nearer to the centre of the target.
At this time Beverley Target Club offer Supported Shooting, whereby the rifle rests on a stand which takes the weight and provides some stability. This approach is used for beginners, but many continue with this method. There will also be a sighted assistant with the visually impaired shooter to assist in loading and safe shooting.
