Another stating the obvious quiz. As I am more of a short burst of power type and have little endurance.
I am more suited to sports that require short bursts of energy. While not being so hot at endurance events.

Boxing
Squash and,
Wrestling

About right as I trained in Muay Thai in the UK and Thailand. Had with a fair few amateur and a couple of pro fights.

...... pleased that I am less suited to Lawn Bowls and Netball!

1. Squash
2. Middle distance swimming
3. Judo.

Not too bad. I used to play squash and swim when younger. Only sports I was really good at were cycling and underwater hockey (octopush).

Apparently not so good at shooting, lawns bowls and weightlifting. Not upset about those....

Like many previous posts, it suggested that I'd be less good at shooting. What is it about PHers that quite a few of us aren't suited to shooting?

1. Squash
2. Judo
3. Cycling (Long Distance)

Worst suited:

1. Shooting
2. Lawn Bowls
3. Atheletics (sprint)

I play hockey, used to play rugby but found it a bit slow and disjointed (physically well suited though), do a fair bit of shooting (more animals than targets), and a bit of mountaineering type stuff.

Squash doesn't appeal at all, I probably would do ok at judo though. Long distance cycling sounds pretty boring, though I used to spend a bit of time on the MTB.

Maybe the PC brigade are just trying to put people off shooting?

1 Squash (I play tennis and badminton)
2 Hockey (Well, nothing wrong with that I suppose. I can use a club.)
3 Rugby sevens (whatever that is)

1 Shooting (Was ok at that at uni)
2 Athletics (long-distance) (too right, running sounds about as exciting as watching grass grow)
3 Lawn bowls (see above)
