How and at what age did you start with sport shooting and combined game shooting?
I started shooting in 2001 in shotgun disciplines, and over time, I switched to combined rifle and shotgun shooting. Now I'm competing in rifle shooting.
What do you like best about combined game shooting?
Pushing the hit limits on my accuracy further and further. And, of course, competing with friends.
Why did you choose CZ?
All of my hunting firearms are made by CZ, and they've never failed me, so deciding on which firearm to choose was easy.
How and why did you join the CZ Shooting Team?
I had already been cooperating with CZ for some time, so when I was offered to join the CZ Shooting Team in 2017 there was nothing to think about.
How do you prepare for a competition?
One of the things that led to my shooting career was the fact that there’s an excellent shooting range close to my house and training is convenient. Of course, I also do "dry" training at home, which is very important as well.
