Meet one of the top young practical shooters in Western Canada, 18-year-old Jonny Sniezek. Jonny got his first 22 rifle on his 12th birthday. Now Jonny's is a former Canadian Junior Champion. And at the Canadian Nationals 3 years ago, when he was just 15, he finished 10th overall.

Jonny says shooting keeps him very active. He says that it is a lot of running and requires fast thinking and good reflexes. It is a very intense sport, but also a lot of fun.

Congratulations Jonny. You are the CTV athlete of week sponsored by Big Chief Beef Jerky.
