Personal: Collyn and her sister, Olivia, keep their parents busy between their trap shooting and hunting, but the pay-off has been numerous awards for both young women in American trap and an appointment for Collyn to the national development shotgun team, for whom she'll be shooting international trap in Cairo at the World Clay Target Championships. Collyn is naturally right-handed, but being born blind in her right eye has forced her to train her body to shoot left, an obstacle that doesn't seem to have affected her shooting, or her golf game either, for that matter. She is currently in high school and will graduate in 2005.
