Shooting a Pro-Am style this weekend.....

[jhenke]

Any good advice on the steels?

1. Don't miss
2. Reload fast
3. Move faster
4. Don't just start spraying bullets when you feel like the par timer is about to beep you to stop

LOL. Thanks Jesse. As always, I appreciate the help.

Whats that do again? Ive heard the term but the life of me i cant comprehend its importance. :

If the steel doesn't fall, you're not pulling the trigger hard enough! I learned that right here!

 

[Jeffrey Hite]

Relax, and shoot only as fast as your experience will let you. Going too fast will cost you in the long run. Have fun.

5. Don't worry, be happy

Thanks guys. I'm getting excited to shoot this. Something totally different.

Ugh. At least I had fun sucking. Knew what mistakes I was making and yet continued to shoot the same. If I could, I'd turn my back on myself in disgust.

At least I got my first pistol match out of the way. Gotta start somewhere.

What part of "don't worry, be happy" did you not understand?

I'm going to need 75% less worrying and approximately 32.33% more happy from you.

I did start out with saying I had fun. Seriously, it was tongue in cheek. No worries. I know what to correct. We just don't have any ranges here to practice anything like a competition. No steel. No multiple targets. Straight on paper. Now that I've done it, I know what needs work. I'll see how the IPSC match goes at the end of the month.

It's pretty rare to find a range that lets you practice the dynamic stuff that we do in the action shooting sports.

Im pretty sure NY hasnt outlawed dryfire

True, it's one of the few things left. LOL.

I have plenty to work on. First time drawing from a holster and I notice, I tend to over trigger my Glock, pulling my shots. My hand is a little big. Do they make a good grip cover for a Gen 3? My buddy has a Hogue, but says it moves around a little.

You can just go ahead and assume that any post I make is a joke.

 

[jhenke]

With a name like poopgiggle, I figured so much.

We all suck the first few (dozen) times. I know I had to "right size" my expectations! Be safe, have fun, and dry fire!
