monicataliani Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 I love reading range diaries. Pharaoh , excuse me, Micah is digressing and novelizing, but i learn a lot from all these diaries and posts. What Sarge is saying is get a Glock. I think. Anyway, thanks for posting, takes a lot of guts.DVC. Hi! I totally agree! They are my favorite thing to read on here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monicataliani Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 I did section 2 tonight. I practiced about an hour total. It felt really good. Everything seemed super smooth. I have been focusing on doing things correctly instead of quickly lately. I could feel a difference today. I was much faster even though I wasn't trying for speed. I also devoted a lot of thought to my weak hand grip as well as keeping my knees bent while "shooting" and moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexOsensei Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Great! I had the same sensation. Trying to be' fast=slow ;relax=fast. As I suggest ,use the cam to see if make any errors. And be' sure to have the target aimed rightly . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monicataliani Posted February 7, 2012 Author Share Posted February 7, 2012 I did the Miamisburg Monday Night Shoot tonight. Soooooo much fun! I felt pretty wound up for the first string and my grip felt absolutely terrible. I have been working with my weakhand grip and now I can really feel a difference. I readjusted mid section during this stage at one point. It was really distracting. The second string I felt kind of choppy because I wanted to shoot alphas and try to go a bit faster. My grip again was really distracting. The third I took a little mental break for a second prior to starting and told myself just to go back to trying to shoot alphas since it was farther back and had some tricky spots. I ended up shooting the third string faster than the second! I am uploading both the first two strings from last week (1/30/12) and then all 3 from tonight. And to top it off- NO failures!!! (I know, it is horrible that I am thinking "OMG I hope my gun works" when stepping up to make ready instead of thinking about shooting.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexOsensei Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Monica U r working hard, and u have to focus again on ur magazine change, u work every time with the gun low.. u have to watch the magwell when u insert the magazine. And when u drawn , u have to move the 2 hands togheter (the left toward the chest and the right to take the gun) and the gun moves up for holster and forward toward the target.. in this way when u r forwarding the gun u can se the sight and begin to aim... I hope I write all clearly..ehehe.. obviously I repeat what my Master tell me continuously.. ahh.. and when u have to slide the gun...always at the eyes level!! reloading http://youtu.be/2xG8aOIB5x0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monicataliani Posted February 7, 2012 Author Share Posted February 7, 2012 Last nights scores....25.25, 34.04, 33.77, 35 As, 2Bs, 27Cs, 8Ds, 1NS. Saw I hit NS so made up the shot or it would have been worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexOsensei Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Too many C . U have to be more accurate. Only As and can occur just some C. Slow down ur speed. U are building now ur skills and u have to shot only when all is good. I am working in this way. No compromise only do all good. I know,maybe, I 'll need more time to became quick, But if u have good fundamentals u can go far. That's my opinion. Dont shot if it's not A this is the rule.

monicataliani Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 I'm pretty sure I'm having separation anxiety from my mnp being gone and I dropped it off less than 12 hours ago! Can't wait to get it back! In the mean time I am going to dry fire with an mnp 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobert1 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I'm so sad Monica. I had to send mine off to the west coast. I may have to use my CCW gun Monday. You may have another chance to beat me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobert1 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I could not believe Jonathan offered the xd for my use. Doesn't he know tjat if Monica isn't happy nobodys happy. Also he has to go home with you. If I should beat you Monday night he will surely pay dearly. To answer your question, YES. I do have 10 XD mags and would very much like to use the XD tacticle in 9 mm. THANKS !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Taliani Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Or was it an elaborate attempt at sabotage? A clipped spring here, a missing part there.... I'll throw it in the range bag. Do you need a holster, pouches, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobert1 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Yes Jonathan. I will need a holster. I have mag pouches. My XD is the 4" service model. I doubt the holster would allow the extra length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
