We are seeing more and more videos every day. Videos of everything. People walking down the road. People having lunch, or picking their nose at a stop light in their car. There are cameras everywhere. There is no reasonable expectation of privacy anymore, so people are more careful with things we do than we were 30 years ago.
There are no exceptions with shooting videos being posted. Chances are if youre shooting a stage, it may be being recorded. We live in a fortunate time when we can analyze shooters, methods, and efficiencies. We can get the equivalent of many hours of practice simply by sitting on our butts and watching videos of shooting done right....and wrong.
There are times when videos will be put up for viewing, where we will see a rule be broken and not get caught or called. This is just going to happen. It is now part of the game. Video evidence cannot be used to make a call and won't be made after a match. I hardly ever see anything mentioned in the comments of these videos. Probably because etiquette dictates people don't want to be the one who points it out. I can understand these videos leaking through with someone just video dumping to you tube or wherever of their local match.
What surprises me is the number of shooters posting their own videos with very obvious 170 violations or other obvious infractions. It may be holding their offhand pistol straight down beside the holster while shooting the other or pointing the pistol straight across the firing line 180° when they turn to move or holding the shotgun or rifle straight up or down 180° or their holsters almost touching each other. I know sometimes there's doubt when watching a video and you cant tell. But sometimes there is no doubt and thats what I'm referring to. Think of the fuss for one of a shooters' championship runs where a blatant violation wasn't called. It'd be rough on the 2nd place shooter to see it. There are probably videos of me breaking some kind of rule out there, but hopefully not one that I posted.
I'm just saying maybe watch your own shooting videos before posting them.
