AlphaSeeker Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 After shooting several indoor matches this winter, I was eager to hit the first outdoor "official match''. Having decent results, I confident signed up for USPSA membership, hoping to get an official standing. On the 5th stage, I was really pumped. I was doing better then I expected and this stage was perfect for me. I ran through it, mentally, a dozen times before my turn came. Buzzer sounded, aa on the near target, ac ac on the 2 @ 25yd, swing across and run for next two. Again, AA on the first, I am running now, Alpha and JAM..... I see the jam, I know what to do, still pointing at the target, forgot to tell my ass to stop running. Broke the 180 by a hair before I could stop. RO was a nice guy and I saw the look of regret on his face when he tapped me. Only one stage to go in the match. Had a great time though. Live and learn.

FireNHole Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Now that you got your DQ out of the way it may never happen again. You never know =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParaGunner Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 There are those who have been DQed and those that are going to get DQed. It will eventually happen trying to push your limits. Just keep practicing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateStaskiewicz Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 It happens to everyone. I got my first stage DQ at blue ridge 3 gun match last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyD Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Similar thing almost happened at my last match. Had a mag get stuck in the gun when I was advancing at an angle, ripped it out as I was running and I was damn near the 180, probably like 175. RO mentioned it said it was really close. Was on the first stage...would have really sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
