marksmanship

noun

Etymology: From marksman + -ship or marks + -manship.

1. The ability to shoot accurately at a target.

   “One evening when it was barely even dusk a sentry let fly at me from a distance of twenty yards; but he missed me by a yard—goodness knows how many times the Spanish standard of marksmanship has saved my life.”

   “After a fine night on the grog, with bladder pressures reaching an estimated 4,000,000 psi (estimated by drunken scientists), the comparatively short range marksmanship required of an in-sink micturator is a significantly more approachable challenge than the tricky long yellow of the traditional method.”
