Man, I would be pretty upset if I dedicated a bunch of my time to compete, and then a guy who got paid millions of dollars to train with some of the best experts in the field showed up as a competitor. That would be like entering an amateur competition and there's a fucking Navy Seal in line next to you.

Psst, (some) Navy SEALs (and ex-thereof) shoot competitions too. So there's the mega rich celebs, the SEALs, and the regular ol' civilian that'll actually win, and 200 other people.

My advice is "show up to have fun, if you win you win."
