Dragon11 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I wish I could have been that disciplined at my first match. Just enjoy yourself, the rest will fall into place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtychemist Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I pride myself on hitting As. Everyone says speed comes with time. I've done three matches and a steel shoot and I can see my improvements and how shooting MY way works. W had an area 4 standard qualifier. 6 seconds par time 150, 95, 50 ft distances. 150 ft target I hit the for three. A, C, D. 50 ft was weak hand. 5 shots on the target. 7th for the entire stage out of 50 people. Pactice. Practice. Practice. Practice draws, reloads, mag changes, moving. http://benstoeger.myonlineplace.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=184:15-minute-dry-fire-program&catid=46:dry-fire-training-program&Itemid=64 I do this for AT LEAST an hour three times a week. I've seen myself get better mag changes and smoother draws. I look at the timer for my squad and see if I'm drawing around the same time as the other people. If I think they are fast and see a 1.8x draw to first shot I feel confident in my level of competition. I shoot single stack so I already have to look at a stage differently. By the USPSA membership and keep it up. Ask the guys if they know of other shoots happening. Sign up for different squads and you'll get lots of good help. Then pick someone you think shoots well and at watch yourself vs them. Make your own goals of coming in not last, top half, top 15, etc. it's fun to watch yourself improve and hear people compliment your shooting. Just wait until you try a man on man steel shoot.
