Leo
    D'Amour


    
For many rifle shooters the ultimate goal
    is perfection at long range. After years of rifle shooting my
    personal expertise ends at about 300 yards. After which my accuracy
    takes a drastic dive for the worst. Mr Leo D'Amour however smiles
    when I talk about distances of 300 yards. His expertise is perfection,
    at the ultimate 1000-yard mark. Mr.Leo D'Amour started competitive
    shooting in 1960. In 1971 he made the Canadian National Team.
    Years of practice and dedication to the sport have earned him
    the title of Master Shooter in Canada and High Master
    in the USA. This is the ultimate goal of many target shooters
    young and old. 


    
"At 73 years of age it is the only
    sport that I can still kick a young guys butt", jokes
    Mr D'amour, with his usual friendly smile. In fact once again
    he has shown his marksmanship in wining the first time ever "F"
    Class World Championship shooting at a distance of 900 meters.
    "I have to use a scope now", says Mr. D'Amour
    with a smile. "I am not young as I used to be".
    The F Class competition is a class of long range international
    shooting, which allows the use of a scope on the rifle. 



    Mr Leo D'Amour has earned the respect of all international shooters,
    representing Canada, in countries like, Australia, New Zealand,
    England, South Africa, and the USA, taking home many trophies
    as proof of his expertise. Among his achievements he is a former
    president of the PQRA, as well as coach for the Canadian Palma
    and Bisley Team.


    
It is an honor for us at CTVSP
    to say that Mr. Leo D'Amour is a member at our range.
