ZoomZoom Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Rip van winkle here. Stopped shooting USPSA and 'action' matches 18 years ago [at 31] to return to racing motocros racing [but that's another story!] At the end of my "career" I was shooting "B" scores at USPSA matches though never classified. Bought an open .38 stupor with a c-more, "holster" [hahaha] and mag pouches from the classifieds a week ago. Today I clamped that holster [holster! hahaha] on a wide western dress belt and backed up 40' and did some one shot draws. 1. After 70,000+ rounds with my old Chapman 007 years ago, that holster is NOT where I think it should be! 2. Picking up the dot in a c-more fast is going to take some practice. A lot. 3. Shooting for A's I was slooooow. Bout 1.5 seconds I'd guess but I don't have a timer. 4. The gun shoots high for me as sighted. 5. I am not unhappy.

ZoomZoom Posted August 18, 2006 Author Share Posted August 18, 2006 Nicely done, Sir!Feels good, doesn't it? Well....yes and no. I was happy with my shooting but it's a little depressing to know how far I have to go to get back up to speed. No pun intended. I'm not sure I'll ever be as fast/good as I use to be.

XRe Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Dry fire is your best friend for your current woes! Time spent there will pay off in spades! I took 6 years off, myself. Was good to get back to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmitz Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 (edited) 31 years of age plus 18 means you're still considered Young TGO isn't that fast anymore but still beats the youngones, it's all about tactics and experience.... Go for it! Edited August 19, 2006 by schmitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
