jtrump Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) http://www.uspsa.org/uspsa-display-match-results-detail.php?indx=14185 Shooting single stack division, Jonathan and they spelled my last name wrong haha. What do you guys think? I know I was a nervous wreck, and I know now what I need to practice on. picked up 2 mike's on a stage for simple crowding the barricades, the other Mike no idea.. But that was the most fun I can say I've had with my clothes on in a long long time!!!!! Edited April 19, 2015 by jtrump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtrump Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 From looking at the scores, I'm not really certain if I need to pick up the pace at the cost of dropping a few A's into C's? I know where the Mikes came from they were my fault but it seems the time played a big role in the overall outcome. Or work on shooting as many A's but just faster hah.. Damn it I'm going to be shooting a lot more now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyK Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Good for you.. The first match will usually hook you and keep you coming back. As I remember, the 3rd or 4th match is the one that slams you to the wall and makes you grit you teeth and say " I can do better than this and I am going too" After that, money has no meaning, only "A"s count.

GunBugBit Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 A USPSA-sanctioned match is a near-term goal of mine. Good for you for taking that step! I understand the nerves, I was nervous just at my recent first-ever local match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desmo412 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I have been playing this game for a few years, and have met most of my short term goals as far as classification....I still get sweaty palms on every stage at local matches before the beep. No matter how much I tell myself "I am here to have fun....standings do not matter", I still feel pressure to do well. I think I'm starting to have flashbacks of my dad yelling at me from the stands during little league games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawmangr Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Looks to me like you did well on your first match. Much better than I did Keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greyhounder Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Safety is the first concern,too many new comers see the speed so many have and try to copy that right off. WAY to get DQ'D or worse, work on reloads,double taps,dry firing. Speed comes with experience,don't rush it and enjoy. Have seen people at beginning get DQ'D and never return great sport enjoy and good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunBugBit Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I probably should have been DQ'd for my finger wandering into the trigger guard during a mag change at my first match but they let me keep shooting. Now I'm practicing mag changes with very intentional finger placement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
