I am a 40 year old native of Sweden, I've spent that last 8 years in Denmark but am now back in Sweden. I'll still work in Denmark and since Wille will live 50% in Denmark my ties to Denmark will be close.

These pages will mostly be about shooting. My shooting career started in 1984 when my best friend thought he had found a way to beat me. He was upset that he had better grades but always lost in anything physical, he had been shooting for 2 years and thought he had found a way to beat me in a sport. After 4 tries with the air rifle it was time for the 1984 Stockholm 10m Junior Air Rifle Championships (some 200 shooter). I shot a good match and went to the final where I finished 4th. My friend did not and was upset. We remained friends but it bugged a lot until he found a "sport" where he won...chess.

My air rifle days were numbered and it wasn't until 1990 when I had to do my mandatory military service that I had contact with a weapon again. In the service I shoot as much as I could and took all the shooting service medals that was available. I excelled at shooting and really liked being in front of the pack. In 1991 my service days was over and I went to Colorado to study. I bought my first handgun, a Baretta 92FS. Mel had one in Lethal Weapon and it look cool, that was all I need to know. Thinking back it’s a wonder that I ever hit any of the 15kg (30lbs) watermelons that often acted targets. I also had a Marlin .22 rifle and a Colt Government Officers ACP and the only one that I hit anything really well with was the Marlin.

In 1992 back in Sweden again my best friend and I had a go with serious .22 bullseye shooting and I've never had my butt kick that hard before, he hit the target and I didn't. I found out how my friend from -84 must have felt. My working hours and the fact that I sucked stopped my career again. It was not until I moved to Denmark in 1999 that my working hours once again allowed me to start shooting. Like so many others in Denmark shooting starts with the internationally unheard of 15 m indoor bullsye pistol. I had once again found my form from -84 and quickly found myself in the front of the pack. My shooting evolved to different calibres and disciplines. I currently compete in about 15 different disciplines. It's now that I for the first time in my life start to shoot 9mm seriously. The chairman of my club was so nice to lend me one of his spare guns a Infinity 9x19. I didn't know it then but have become aware of how lucky I was to start shooting with the best of the best.

In April 2003 after much persuasion I took my IPSC license and my first thought after gaining my license was "why didn't I know abut this when I was 18?" it was by far the most fun I had experienced on a range and I had some talent. That talent will be exploited to max as I now train hard with the goal of climbing as many podiums as I possibly can.
