Yes. It’s now going to Southern MD PS. Follow Delmarva sectional FB page. Check the shadow hawk defense FB page for the backstory if you wish.

My data are for limited. HHF from USPSA site. Barring a typo, they should be correct. As far as ranking- I took several factors: number of metric, partials, no shoots, poppers, walls, barriers. Also the setup width and distance. Each one starts at 100% and declines for the number and weighted PITA factor, resulting in a final %.

It’s not so bad if you look at the most likely classifiers. Lots of the changes are moot because few clubs run them...Big Barricade II and Take ‘em down for example. So I ranked the most likely classifiers based on ease of setup and the average change is under 3%. Out of the 76 classifiers, these 45 are most likely (at least at indoor or space constrained clubs) IMO. The take away is that there are only a third or so that need to be avoided if you are inclined to improve classification. The ones that increased 6% or more are in red. Top 45 ranked most to less likely....

What was the result of doing this? Was your vision faster for transitions? Easier to see recoil arc? I’m righty with left eye dominance but I don’t know of any issues it causes for me. No double vision or anything. So should I try the tape?

I really like my simple Polaroid cube. Easy operation- Hold button on, two clicks record, one click off. Water resistant and plenty of accessory options on amazon. You could have it setup with head mount under $100.

That’s crazy. You should just re-register using middle or nick name first and real last name.

I happen to be in the same boat (class, goal and current drills). I’d recommend getting Cha-lee’s book, Path of focused effort. It had some great info in there: grip, footwork and and transitions in particular.

Good stuff! Enjoy your new glock! Great camping pistol to boot...

Sandbaggers won’t like the new guys coming in under this set of HHF’s. Sort of evens the field for them, no? Newly minted B class guy might have shot an el prez in 5.95 all Alphas. That’s 74% in limited now....

Really interesting. Thx for doing that research. I had no idea reshoots were so prevalent. Also feel a little better about some of my botched classifier runs...

You wouldn’t happen to be a GM or M, would you? Asking for a friend

Anyone know when the next summary of headcount by class and division will be published? Latest I’ve seen is 2015...

Double tap!

Revised with a few corrections. El Prez original HHF corrected. ”Six” is not retired....just 8% higher. All this is based on Limited division.

Thanks for posting that, Charlie. I had been testing incorrectly on my dyno.

Good point. Will double check that the length is appropriate.

Sorry I was slow on the uptake there. I am using the OAL recommended by the builder. Anyway- I’ve had zero gauging issues or ammo issues since switching to the Shockbottle XL Hundo. Best invention since the wheel.

One aspect of IDPA that makes sense is the fact that the highest classification is reserved for people who have won a major match. Distinguished Master, IIRC. I wouldn’t mind that one bit.

I have the FART and FA brass dryer. Both work really well. As others have stated, wet tumbling makes the brass shine like no other....

Impressive!

Soul crushing post!

Limited.

Sorry. Yep, 10.8...must have fat-fingered that one. Other corrections welcome!

Summary below is small in post. Click on image and zoom for better look.

Limited el prez is 22% higher HF. Went from 10.14 to 12.42
