Hit up the match at H&H this Sunday, I'll be there to make everyone else look good :)
 
Welcome! The only way to improve that score is to shoot some more matches. Make sure you click the contingency tan on the top of the forum and check out our virtual prize table. No other forum gives you an opportunity to win guns by shooting more.
 
How about practice, training, taking classes? Not going to get better by just shooting matches.

Mike Chambers became one of only a handful of Grandmasters in Oklahoma by just shooting matches in under 2 years. But I agree practice and classes help a lot too.

AP 1 from TDSA in Tulsa is a must have class for anyone serious about shooting a pistol.

Mike took AP1 before he started shooting matches but yes, he shot so many matches that they pretty much replaced any practice sessions

I'd bet with his abilities & skills, if he'd added a couple focused practice sessions in between matches he'd have probably made GM even sooner.
 
save up until you can.....seriously.
Practice is great as long as your not building on bad fundamentals.
This is where proper teaching comes into play.
Once you have a good foundation to build on, you'll be able to practice the correct way.

no you didnt, you just didnt screw up so much. You got more consistent. ie shooting to your potential.

You see, its real easy to not perform up to your ability, especially in a stress situation. (ie matches) More matches, the less stress you have. But you arent going to have a greater potential without training, and pushing and exploring your limits and developing skills.
