Yeah...the one where you started at one end, ran backwards, hit port in middle, and then finished on other side. No problems on the one where we laid the markers down for the 180 on our squad...just one of those unfortunate times when the shooters feet worked faster than the brain. I know a lot of us don't practice moving backwards, and this is an example of why it isn't a bad idea to add it to your routine.

I enjoy RO'ing.......kinda feels like giving back a little bit to the sport.
I find it fun, since I get to interact with all the shooters and such...
It just sucked today when I had to do the DQ action. I appreciate any and all people who help--setup, tear down, scorekeep, etc.

I've been RO'ing for a few months now, since taking Troy's class.
I had to DQ my first shooter today.
Worst part is it's a great friend too! Rules are rules, of course, so I did what I had to do....... but it sure didn't feel good to do it.

If money is not an object, get a Dawson tuned Edge. You won't be sorry.
I have both, actually......and their is an obvious difference between the two in many ways. If you are used to shooting a 1911 anyway, the 2011 is a no brainer.... of course, this is just my opinion, I could be wrong.

I've shot several Glocks with it installed. It's a nice trigger, but for the same money, I'd go with the Vanek. Just personal preference, but I like it better--not as 'mushy'.

Keith,
If you want to stay in Production, I'd recommend snagging up a CZ-- Matt Mink/Angus could trick it out pretty nicely, and you wouldn't have a ton of cash invested in it. You know you are always welcome to shoot one of my Glocks...but I know the story there.

Just wanted to say--- great match, lots of fun....... excellent stages.
If you missed it...(and even if you didn't)...... make SURE you make the Doubletap Championship this coming year!! Thanks to all involved in making it a success.

Stockton was rocking on it. Him and forum member Harmon here were taking turns reshooting it for kicks after the match, and were both turning in times I didn't think could be done. Good stuff!

Very nice.

The beauty of the book is that at each level you progress, the material will become clearer. You've heard the adage: when the student is ready, the teacher will appear....... that's the way the book works. Skim it, read it, re-read it......... repeat as necessary.

It's ok..... Merlin knows Harmon.
He just likes to keep him on his toes. The wifey's Edge 'will' run the short ammo, but I load it longer 'just because'. 
I did stop using Precision bullets with Titegroup,though.....too smokey for me.

You can pretty much live anywhere in the metroplex and be near plenty of shooting action. Usually within an hour or so drive you can be at a match, plus Dallas has one that is really close. Anywhere in the city or the burbs and you'll be fine.

Now I'd definitely PAY to shoot the array I managed to run past......
Hope to see everyone there!

Man, I actually liked the hell-a-ports......

Here is what I found......
Sad news.
Friends,
"At the request of the family it is my sad duty to report the passing of
our founder, Jeff Cooper. Jeff died peacefully at home this afternoon
while being cared for by his wife Janelle and daughter Lindy.
There will be a private internment at Gunsite by invitation, with a
public memorial service at the Whittington Center at a date to be
announced.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
DVC,

A moment of silence.........

All I need is a little encouragement from time to time, something to show I'm getting better. I try hard to do well on classifiers, even though it'll line me up against tougher competition. Moving up in class means I'm getting better. Beating higher classed shooters means I'm getting better. Getting prizes is nice, but if that's what I'm after, it'd be easier on the ego and wallet to just go buy them. I'll still go to every match I can make, no matter how you hand out the goodies. The sport is about the journey of improvement. The rest is just window dressing.
+1. That works for me. Prizes are nice, but not too important to me. It's more about the tracking of self improvement. I've been shooting this now for a year and a half..... and yeah, I started at "D". I'm real close to making "B", and find it's awesome to be able to track improvements, spend time with friends, and have a grand ol' time.

There were a whole BUNCH of people breathing a sigh of relief to get you out of "B".
Congrats! "M" ain't far away now!-Mike

This one was a fun one today. It's one of those times that right or lefty, you get it on even terms. I don't remember what I shot it in, but it felt pretty good today.

Great pic! All the pics you've posted are great.....keep 'em coming!

+1 This is a video I'll add to my 'must have' list.

Worst part is it's a great friend too!
