Micah Posted August 18, 2009 Author Share Posted August 18, 2009 Plenty of meetings have me nice and busy again...but nothing can really compare to the madman schedule that I had last year balancing work and classes. I had planned on hitting the range a little this week, but the weather continues to decide to disallow such an activity: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkeeler Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Your going to let a little weather stop you from live fire practice man I thought you were dedicated. Man I am disappointed!

Micah Posted August 18, 2009 Author Share Posted August 18, 2009 Since I ditched the blue on the slide, the blue elsewhere needed to go as well. (I DID workout and dryfire today as well, so it's not like I just f-around with my gear ) Ironically, my shoes are now black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Di Vita Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 If it rains at a major are you gonna bow out? The rain = excellent training opportunity. Use it as often as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezco Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 PB, I don't remember there being a Black Smurf. It's not going to be the same here in SW Ohio without the Blue thing going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 Shoop Da Woop! I'm here in Brighton allowing my brain to wake up before I shoot the MI Sectional today. Forcast is calling for rain...but fortunatly (a la Jake's prod) I practiced in the Ohio monsoon this week I love shooting in the rain, and it gives me the advantage. Going to be a fun day, and a fun weekend of shooting as I am jotting back down to Ohio to hit the MRPC club match on Sunday. Good luck to all of the competitors shooting MI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micah Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Michigan was an excellent match, made groovy by the great staff and stage design. Despite a few ding'dong penalties (I'm the ding-dong) and a brutal beating from the standards stage (need to recheck my sights at 25y) I felt that my shooting overall was good.MRPC was today, and I shot with the KY crew who kept the humor lively the entire match. All in all, I shot 13 fun stages with friends, and couldn't ask for more. Good times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good times I'm starting to hate my job being on call is killing my shooting opportunities! Looks like you guys almost swept MI and from what I heard had a hell of a time at Miami today.

Micah Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 Sorry you missed the matches Corey I suppose having a job and missing a few matches is better than having no job and missing all matches. Here is the video from the MI Sectional: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micah Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 Video of the MRPC match that I shot yesterday: I had several occurrences of mags sticking in my magwell, which I attribute to not cleaning the frame in a LONG time. The Texas Star was problematic for many shooters as it did not want to drop plates, and I knew I was in trouble when an Open shooter put two 38 super rounds on a plate and it still didn't fall. This wasn't my first time shooting a star clean, but it was the first time that I had 6 perfect hits on a 5 star plate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveU Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Nice video and nice shooting. It was fun shooting with you guys. I couldn't slow the video down enough to see if your makeup shot on the last stage went around the barrel too... Probably hard to tell on video.

dcarter Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) PB, We will not bring out the star again until we get that little problem fixed. We just need to take a grinding wheel to the plates and it won't be a problem anymore. Thanks for the heads up. We didn't have any re-shoots on our squad. Nice job in MI! Looked kinda cool seeing all my homies taking so many divisions. Edited August 25, 2009 by dcarter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Hefta Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 PB, You really make that G34 rock! Your splits are sick, how are your hits? I am sure they are A's and C's being that you are a GM. I am at a crossroads in my own skill level and wanted to pick at your brain a bit. I love watching you vids, keep em coming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 Thanks Dan! My hits are (usually) mostly A's with some C's depending on the stage and my perceived time on said stage. As an experiment, the other day at the MRPC match on the last stage I decided to "Push it" which resulted in a sloppy performance. Thinking in terms of speed never works for me...rather I just see what I need and move on to the next array. Feel free to shoot me a pm or give me a jingle if you wanna pick away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Conrad created one hell of a match today in Circleville. Although I had a few errors in patience, fundamentally my performance was sound. My hits were excellent and I dropped very few points in 4 out of the 5 stages, and overall I was pleased that I shot the match clean. ONE thing that happened today that has never happened before was that I fell. Crazy man...crazy. After exiting the Cooper Tunnel I lost my footing and ATE the ground. I was bummed after that stage from the perceived time that I had lost, but after watching the video it was not as bad as I had first assumed. (protip: the video music correlates with the falling theme ) More shooting fun on Sunday at Oxford ETA: I'm having issues with photobucket...video to come when I get the problem resolved.
