This Husker lady shoots and makes it on "The Blaze"

after reading her bio I found out she attended the University of Nebraska.  She speaks like 7 languages, loves to shoot (better than any of us) and she is very beautiful.  I think I am in love.  too bad I am 15 years her senior and married (damn ha) .  just writing that makes me sound creepy :)

Today, we need a nation of Minutemen, citizens who are not only prepared to take arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as the basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom.   J. F. K.

I have seen many of her YouTube shooting videos and didn't know those things about her;... well except she is beautiful and a great shot. 
Her vids were always linked with the Gunwerks videos.

She can't see the card from where she was shooting, so she must have noted the location of the card on  the chunk of wood it was mounted on, then aimed at the air an inch or two above that location.   Amazing shot.   I would have been happy to hit the block of wood.

Was that a Henry .22 lever action she was using?

I think it's a Henry Repeating rifle.

That looks like western Nebraska, like maybe the Wildcat Hills.

Kirsten is the reason I follow UNL Rifle.  (The only Husker team worth my time ;) )
I have had a couple conversations with her, and am trying to get her to come back and visit at a NFOA event sometime.
