One of the greatest
shooters and men who ever lived. He's been a hero of mine all my life. I've still got my autographed to me copy of No Second Place Winner.
I believe I have read it a thousand times and watched him putting on his dog and pony show as he called it for the NRA in Fast and Fancy Shooters at least that many times.
I still use and practice his techniques today. Using plastic and wax bullets I attempt to practice his point shooting skills. I also attempt to replicate some of his holster tricks.
I do believe this little book was one of the greatest ever written on shooting.
Long live the memory of Bill Jordan!
Here are some links you might enjoy. One is to Paladin Press where they have the DVD.
