Hancock also set an Olympic record with his score of 148.
When the AP asked Hancock what gold medal is sweeter, the U.S.
Army Sergeant said this time was.
‘‘Being able to stand back up there again and listen to the
national anthem again, it’s got to be better,’’ said Hancock, the first skeet
shooter to win consecutive Olympic titles. ‘‘But it hasn’t set in fully yet.’’
Hancock was able to hear The Star Spangled Banner, of
course, because his ears were being protected by Electric Shooters Protection’s
Stealth ear protectors, ESP’s most popular model.
The event took place at the Royal Artillery Barracks in
London.
Hancock told the AP he wasn’t sure if he
wasn’t going to compete in these Olympics, but after deciding too he’s not looking back now.
Hancock was the youngest competitor and will have his eyes set on Rio in
2016.
If the best shooter in the world qualifies again, we’ll be sure to sponsor him with in ear hearing protection again too.
If the best shooter in the world qualifies again, we’ll be sure to sponsor him with in ear hearing protection again too.
Frank Thompson, who also wore the Stealth ear protectors
didn’t finish in the medals, but represented Electric Shooters Protection and
his country proudly and we salute him for that.
