Sorry, did I offend you somehow? I wasn't detracting from his skill. I was pointing out that, having the freedom, in both time and money, to invest in these skills, is a luxury that I don't have in my life right now. I was a certified NRA instructor at one point, and I can tell you that shooting skills like that certainly take some talent, but they mostly take trigger time and training. You yourself might be as good as he is, with the same amount of training time. Quite frankly, I have not spent much time at the range the last couple of years, and I know that my skills have gone way down, because shooting is a degradable skill which must be refreshed often in order to stay up.
I suppose that I do have a certain amount of wry amusement at how worshiped movie stars are in this culture, often times without regard to the access and resources which they have earned themselves. In any case, I didn't realize that you were so vested in this guy and his shooting. Forgive me for offending you please.
