When asked what has inspired Patrick to succeed in his dream of being a Professional Xtreme Sport Shooter, he replies, "Athletic idols of other sports such as my personal idol Brett Favre. It is guys like Favre who through the pursuit and success of their own personal passions have fired me up to pursue my passion and success in exhibition shooting. In fact, you may find me pumping myself up with a little NFL anthem music or some cool NFL highlight DVD's to get ready for the shooting of one of my exhibition or television shows. My style of shooting is like Brett Favre's style of quarterbacking: I make great things happen by doing it my way, my style, my own personal technique. I do nothing textboo k style!"
Patrick hopes to accomplish a strong message to everyone, as he talk about educating people on the sooting sports and the professionalism involved in shooting.
In his own words: "I hope that I am able to connect with the next generation to educate and encourage their shooting and hunting involvement. It is my dream to someday see any or all of the shooting sports recognized as a professional sport on the same level as baseball or football etc.. My shooting campaign is promote the shooting sports as a professional sport as I am living proof, you can make a career out of your shooting passions.
