wayne,
you mean you get nervous when you have to stand infront of a lot of people watching shoot a pistol? try to give a speech now and then, same type situation right?
my advise:
get comfortable with your subject matter, this case your shooting, by practicing dry firing and live firing in the nude on your front porch. do this technique about 5 days before your next match. you'll be sooo relaxed and shoot so well (if you put your clothes back on). your neighbors and the police may forgive you, but shooters never forget or forgive!!
believe me on this matter. i still get nervous. just relax and have fun and in about 12 years of shooting you'd wish you could get nervous.
dvc ya,
