Todd Jarrett
In an interview published by an Australian IPSC shooting magazine, Jarrett stated: "I got started in competition in 1983, shooting bowling pins. In 1984, I started shooting IPSC on Friday nights at an indoor range in Richmond, Virginia with some co-workers."[2] Another published interview mentioned that between 1988 and 2001 he shot about 1.7 million rounds, during practice. “I had a gun in my hand for two hours every day for 10 years to develop my skill level. Now it’s not so much practice anymore, it’s more of a maintenance thing. I wasted the first million rounds just learning how to shoot.”[3]
Todd Jarrett is also the cousin of NASCAR racing driver Dale Jarrett.
