While at IWA, I had a chance to interview world champion pistol shooter Rob Leatham. Mr. Leatham has won the IPSC World Championship 5 times and the USPSA National Championship an incredible 24 times, among many other prestigious victories. He’s been described by Brian Enos as “the finest and most accomplished shot on the planet.”

Despite his busy schedule, he had no problem stopping to talk to me on several occasions, and posed for photographs with fans whenever asked. He’s a great example of someone who has accomplished very much in his life, yet is still down-to-earth.

I asked him about some of the basic components of pistol shooting, and his insights were extremely valuable. We discussed what he thought was most important, as well as a few things that he believes people focus too much on.
