Laser tag

Hi! Please, help me with the phrase

Your laser tag chops are almost nonexistent.

What does the word chop mean in this phrase?

As I understand, Laser tag is a game with laser guns or something.

Thank you very much!

"Chops" means skill or ability. It has its origins in jazz slang, I think from the "embouchure" or mouth positioning required to play various instruments.
