Sunny Day
"The time has come," the Walrus said, "To talk of many things: Of shoes—and ships—and sealing-wax— Of cabbages—and kings— And why the sea is boiling hot— And whether pigs have wings."

This is a great achievement. It is definitely a matter of great pride for all Indians.
The best part is he is not a product of our sports system.
He has a personal air conditionedpractice range with the latest computerised target management system. Plus he has a personal trainer - a Swiss lady.
We have a big open air training range in Mumbai but in a serious state of disrepair.
If similar facilities are made available, I am sure we could have aimed at 4 - 5 golds in the shooting category.
This, however, does not diminish in any way Abhinav's stupendous achievements. It is not his fault if he can afford the best facilities.
Thanks a lot Mavin. Yes, Abhinav is lucky to have afforded expensive training and equipment. But as you rightly pointed out, that does not take the shine off his heroid achievement.
