I know this is an old post, but I had to respond anyway. I did iaido, iaijutsu, and kenjutsu, along with other martial arts for a long time. I was what you guys would call a "tactical shooter" for a living during the same time frame (and still am). I'm new to USPSA, but view it mentally no differently than iai. I actually made the comment to my wife (also a tactical shooter by profession), who I met in the dojo, the other day that USPSA is our Iai now...
Iaido?
in Zen
