Hobbies: Competitive shooting, USPSA and IDPA.
I wonder how that would work on my resume?

IMHO, I don't list hobbies.. I didn't even want to have future employers see
my personal blog site in case they had a political, social or religious stigma
against something I may have blogged about. Sometimes hobbies can help,
sometimes not.
What if the hiring manager hates your hobbie? had a former employee who
always left early on Friday's and wasn't available for on-call because of
kayaking..

Damn it! Which should we use? A one page or two page resume? I just
finished adjusting headers, footers, fonts, added National Guard
experience,
2 semesters of teaching at ITT-Tech, canoeing and kayaking as hobbies, etc.
