Hi-Power Jack Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Anybody remember, a year or two ago, a young woman posted that she was just starting out in USPSA and planned to become a GM with 1-2 years, If I recall correctly? About 300 responses came in, for about 5-7 months, and I haven't seen anything lately re: this. Anybody know how she made out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Probably just like most others who say they are going to make GM in 1-2 years.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted December 18, 2015 Author Share Posted December 18, 2015 That was my prediction, at the time, BUT, who knows? I'd love to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bret Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Or it could have been Candice Juliano A86759 whom it seems joined uspsa not that long ago and is now a GM Candice has been shooting less than 1.5 years is the 1st woman GM in production. After IPSC Nationals she went from M to GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your match scores will show your real shooting capabilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwx40x40 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 So how many female GMs are there? I was under the impression J Duff was the only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bret Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 So how many female GMs are there? I was under the impression J Duff was the only one. I think Jess is an Open GM, Candice is a GM in Production. I think there are only 2, but I am not certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sure, i heard it was 500, and she moved the targets closer, and used an open gun, and took steroids and EPO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bret Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) What is the point of being a paper GM? Do you get sponsored because of it? I guess it's cool to say you are the 1st GM in something but unless you shoot at that level in matches, what does it really matter? Edit: I am not saying she is a Paper GM, I have no idea how many times she shot the classifiers. I met her and she is a nice girl and a good shooter.

z40acp Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) You don't get GM for just a couple of great classifiers. Isn't it an average of six. Edited December 19, 2015 by z40acp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motosapiens Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 You don't get GM for just a couple of great classifiers. Isn't an average of six. and you can reshoot all 6 over and over if you want. pretty much any decent b class shooter could pick the right 6 classifiers, shoot them all 10 times, and pick 6 gm scores up.

I've NEVER shot any stage at a GM level - an "A", at most. I rarely practice classifiers but I have run El Pres in practice before. I was able to luck a couple of 100% runs after a few runs trying to hero or zero it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
