Akkid17 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Man, I wish I had the option to set up a range in my backyard and be able to run drills. Best I can do is dry fire in my living room, visualize courses I've run previously at a local range and do some static drills at the range (don't allow you to do shoot and scoot on normal range days). Plus living in alaska a vast majority of competitions be it 3-gun, ipsc, steel challenge etc. are non-registered shoots and they are at least an hour away and usually spread out time wise. I would love to have a "real" uspsa, ipsc, idpa or multi/3-gun matches that I don't have to fly to and that are often enough to be able to have to choose between them. If given the chance even without any practice I would go to competitions, paticipate, have fun, be safe, pay attention to what's happening around the different stages, meet folks and shoot! Maybe that's just me. I guess I just like shooting and trying new things too much to let those opportunities, -Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Gaines Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 How fast is fast? Travis Tomasie did a .60 sec reload in a match, according to lee Dimaculangan. Now that is sick!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Anderson Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 That's quick. It's tough to dry fire with par time quicker than .60 because at .50 there's just two beeps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should probably re-word that better, It wasn't exactly .60 sec, but it was in the .60's somewhere, maybe .64-.65, it was 5yrs ago. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylehb Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Training is important, but I'd say half of training is going to matches, and making mistakes. And don't spend too much time ingraining habits before you try the real thing, ultimately you may realize that you want to change a lot of little details when it comes to training based on your match experiences.
