facelessman Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Heh, I put up an 80.8% last week, but chances are it'll bump off an 86.x% I have... (like the 85.x% that got bumped off by a 76%, lol). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facelessman Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Shot an all classifier match last weekend in Prod and Lim. Couple dismal performances in Lim, but had one 85.x%. The overall "match" I actually beat myself, with a stock G17 and WWB ammo, lol. There's another all classifier match in two weeks. If it doesn't happen in Limited that weekend, it won't be happening for a while. I'll more than likely be shooting Production the rest of the year (maybe some L10 in there too).

bigbear_98 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Put an 83 out on sunday. This is going to be hard... I was thinking about it a little harder. I haven't even done anything as an A yet. Am I ready to be M? I hate to have the card and my skill level not be on par? Not that I'm going to sandbag anything, but being a Master and shooting like a master may be different.

beltjones Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 My theory is that it's really hard to get bumped to M. If I put in a lot of work and my scores say I'm a master, then maybe my skills have improved to the point that I'm an M. It's going to be a lot of work, that's for sure. If I get the M card and get spanked at matches, well that will just make me work that much harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas H Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 Put an 83 out on sunday. This is going to be hard... I was thinking about it a little harder. I haven't even done anything as an A yet. Am I ready to be M? I hate to have the card and my skill level not be on par? Not that I'm going to sandbag anything, but being a Master and shooting like a master may be different. I made M a little while back, and boy did I not feel ready for it---I thought that I could only consistently shoot A-level. (And occasionally B. ) Went to a couple of majors, however, (A3 and Nationals) and found out that indeed, I was ready. If you practice classifiers to get good at classifiers and make M, that is one thing. But if you practice shooting and then on classifiers make M---then even if you don't feel like you shoot M-level all the time, you will still be shooting well enough to run with the M-folks. You may not be winning but you'll be in the right crowd at the end of the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pastorjohnd Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Since this is my first year in USPSA it will probably be more like my race to "B", but I could use the accountablity.

HOOLIHAN Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Shot a classifier match in Idaho Falls on the weekend. My best stage was an 89.83% (CM 09-10). Best 4 averaged 78.22% First time being able to shoot outside since November, can't complain about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beltjones Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 Ok, now for my personal update. I shot a couple of good classifiers in the last month, one that was in the 80's that helped bump me up a point. The other was 09-01, which I smoked but it only came out to a 75%. That one is kind of a joke if you're shooting Production or Revolver. And last Saturday I drove 60 miles to a match and was feeling very good, except that somehow I slept funny on my left wrist the night before and it was extremely sore in the morning. After the first two stages it had been aggravated to the point of a full-on sprain, and I called it quits for the day. Several days later I still can't grip a gun! So now I'm "rehabbing" and hoping I can get back in the saddle sooner than later (and practicing strong-hand-only dryfire, muahahahaha...).

I just can't keep my head on long enough to be consistant. Another thing to work on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
