I always enjoy the shows and tips Mr.Knapp gave. Hope he enjoys good health and has a long happy retirement.As for P. Flannigan he's got a fast shooting gun.I've only heard good thing about the SX3. My son has one never had a problem. So what's wrong with it.

I just talked to Tom Knapp in Austin, TX at a Federal Premium Industry Meeting Function and he said he just came from a live show in Waterford, CA for an SCI function that was very successful for both Benelli and SCI. He did comment that he attempted his 9 clay record routine and he got 8 out of the nine and chose to leave it at that because of the conditions. He then told me that he intends to continue with his live shows until it was no longer possible for him to do shows safely. He anticipated at least 10 years more (ruling out winning the lottery). The word "Retire" was not mentioned. As far as I'm concerned, this guy is still in the game!

I just googled Tom's web page. He has appearances into Sept. then Tv shows to tape no mention of retirement. Good I'll get to enjoy more of his shows.Seems the young shooter got an spread some bad info from his gun dealer.Of course others have given what I consider worthless opinions also.No offence intended.

Don't fret. Tom Knapp is fully-booked for performances as far as the eye can see. Just google his website... the dude is working and busy and continuing to amaze everyone.

I have seen Tom Knapp once and he was awesome but so is Tim Bradley and Patrick Flannigan. He will be missed by all the people that enjoy great exhibition shooting.
