WFargo Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I saw a post by Double Alpha Academy on Facebook that Josh Lentz had won the US IPSC Nationals. Congratulations Josh!! First thing I do is check YouTube if there are any vids uploaded already.... nothing... and in fact... I always have problems finding 'new' vids of revo-shooters in IPSC... it kinda bums me out.... I would love to see some up to date footage of Josh, apparantly the best revo-shooter in the US, to see what his strategy is / how he approaches the different stages... It's the same here in Europe. We have Sascha Back absolutely killing it in the revo-division.... and I can't find anything on youtube on the man.... Ah well... just wanted to share my 'frustration'..... hopefully someone will upload something in the upcoming few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWP Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 There's lots of videos of Josh killing it on his Facebook. He's crazy fast. There's always a guaranteed way to watch those guys shoot, sign up for the big matches they are at and squad with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WFargo Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 Hahahaha! Excellent Waktasz! good plan! and cheap rate! I've checked Josh's Facebook pages, but no vids there. Probably only when we're 'friends' so I sent him an invite, of course explaining who the h#ll I am, and why in God's name I'm sending him an invite...

AzShooter Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Congratulations Josh. That's a mighty accomplishment and you've worked hard for it. I'm happy to see the variety of winners these past few years. I can't wait to watch this year's match on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw he posted some vids from IPSC Nats so they are definitely there. I'll be at the match anyway so might as well follow him around right? I just have to pay someone off so I can switch squads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFargo Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 Josh was kind enough to accept my Facebook invitation and yes, I got to see a lot of video's of him shooting! Excellent. In the mean time I also got a link to YouTube videos from Sascha Back so I'm happy as a pig in mud. It's just very valuable watching the pro's. Usually I will be the only revo-shooter in my squad at a match and at my club there's only one other revo-shooter. Within the Netherlands IPSC competition I believe there are no more than 20 revolver shooters in total! And as strategy / positioning is of the utmost important for us revo-guys, it's just really important to be able to see what the top shooters are doing.

This is what I'm doing in September, will be on squad with a bunch of revo pro's and to be honest my main concern is simply keeping myself from making a complete fool of myself. Seemed like a good idea at the time but as zero hour approaches.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Phil Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 I saw that when the squad had 6 or so openings. Problem was it was Sunday P.M. I wanted to shoot with them kinda bad... So I could steal their secrets LOL. But, my wife made me (made?!) sign up on Sat and then we leave on vacation... Hope you shoot great! You will enjoy it that's for sure!!
