Joe also, like a pro athlete, consciously works to improve his mental game and performance under stress.On March 25, 2007 he shot a perfect 2500 score--only the sixth man to have accomplished that feat at the time.
In the same match, he recorded an amazing 9850 total 4-target score (2450, 2500, 2450, 2450). By all accounts, this is the best 4-target ARA Agg ever shot, by far. Other top rimfire shooters agree this will be the benchmark to beat for quite some time. Joes impressive performance was the direct product of hard work and dedication. And he is always evaluating new gear and new tuning techniques. He has attacked the rimfire game with a level of professionalism few other shooters, in any discipline, have matched.

This rifle, in Sierra Rainbow colors (center photos), proved to be a winner from the get-go. With his first Myers-built rifle, Joe shot his 2500 perfect ARA score, and a 4-target Aggregate of 9850 points, (2450, 2500, 2450, and 2450 for an Average of 2462.5). Joes latest ARA rifle (right photos) is another Bill Myers creation, virtually identical to the record gun, but with a red, gray, and khaki color scheme instead of the Sierra Rainbow purple, green, blue, orange, and turquoise pattern.

Friedrichs Formula for Success--Practice, Equipment Optimization, Mental Preparation EDITORS COMMENT: When preparing this story, I noted that Joe Friedrich is not the typical weekend warrior shooter. When he is not shooting rimfire rifles, Joe helps run a Go-Kart racing team which he sponsors. One can see how the racing influences his approach to shooting. He is constantly testing and tuning new equipment, just like race teams do. In the past month alone, Joe has acquired a new 2100 March Scope, and an Ahrens one-piece rest. And as soon as he got his hands on that rest, he began experimenting--adding weights to the base to increase its stability. Just as a race car is never fast enough, Joes rifles are never accurate enough. He is relentless in pursuing a little more accuracy, or a better state of tune. Elsewhere we note how Joe practices, in all conditions, day in and day out.
