The Greatest

[Harrylee]

Oh I have enjoyed watching this man over the years and still want to have one ounce of his skill. He is and was amazing to say the very least, the video is not the best but you can see what you need, the man was great!!!

WOW-ah!

[Buzzard45]

He was absolutely amazing!

[Bill K]

Awesome! Amazing! And that's having seen it for maybe the third or forth time.

[garyb]

Quite a guy.

[muggsy]

Yes, sir. And people complain about the long trigger reset on a Kahr Pistol. I can clear and empty my CM9 in three seconds, but I'm no Bob Munden. He is so far beyond what I can do there is no comparison.

[RevRay]

Yea, but if you watch closely his hits weren't usually center of mass ... though mine aren't either and I take 10 seconds to aim!

[Harrylee]

I think old Bob (rest in peace) cheated in a natural way. He had extraordinary eye sight of 20/10 so you look at something at 20 feet he looked at it and to his eyes it was 10 feet. Still doesn’t explain how he could throw a playing card in the air and hit it on edge and split it in half or his incredible speed. I think he could unload his six gun faster than me hitting the mag release with a full mag to unload my guns. Oh come on guys I know one of you can shoot a mosquito between the eyes if he looked at you funny. We all have our fun but the man was incredible. Here's one of him shooting coins

REV..Now that's being a little picky. Technically you are correct but how far off do you think he is? 1.00 - 1.5 and patterned.
Not trying to pick on you but.........

I've seen that quite a few times and I'm still amazed, especially with the TWO shots... and hits... that couldn't be separated by the electronic gear... only the frame-by-frame playback!

Jerry Miculek is pretty amazing, but he's not as fast as Bob was.

I tried that fast draw stuff... had to get a single-action .22 and tried to emulate Clint Eastwood in 1969... and, I have the two scars on my thigh to remember that experience.



Lessee... cock and draw at the same time, but don't get on the trigger too fast!

Here's my post on that. See post #12

Gee Wynn brings a new meaning of the old saying SHOOTING YOUR SELF IN THE FOOT.
Yeah I tried that fast draw years ago with my Blackhawk nothing bad ever happened but never got even close too being good. Glad to hear it wasn’t serious just a little embarrassing moment

[muggsy]

Your one hell of a man, Wynn. I don't think that I have the testicular fortitude to admit to anyone that I shot myself, except possibly to the Dr. in the ER. Should we now refer to you as "Hopalong", Wynn?

[hardluk1]

Some of the videos show Bobs wife Becky. She is a fast draw draw shooter too and very accurate with rifle or handgun.

[getsome]

Wynn you're a good sport for telling that one on yourself.......I being the safety concious gun handler that I am have never shot myself but I have tried to kill an apartment with a shotgun once....

Bob Munden was a super human no doubt, I have seen that video many many times and it always amazes me to watch what that man could do with a Peacemaker....

[wyntrout]

Some people DO have amazing "powers"... mental, physical, visual, and sometimes they all come together as with Bob.

My .22 was loaded with hollowpoints, but I don't think there was any expansion and I didn't hit anything important... artery or major vein. I knew I had fired the pistol early and immediately looked down to check my feet... whew! Missed... but as my eyes traveled back up the front of my shorts, I saw some threads sticking out and a red spot forming... didn't really bleed much and it was a while before I really felt a sting.

The campus and local cops got a good laugh at the campus clinic and they gave me crutches, but I turned around and took them back after trying to walk about 10 feet.

I was really glad that I hadn't tried that with my High Power loaded!
