Micah Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 Happy almost New Year guys and gals! I have not been up to much during my time off: just working out, yoga, and this new shooting workout homicidal program for shooters. I pledged at work that I would be one of the very few to return having lost weight, as opposed to gaining it. The 2012 season was a difficult, but exceptionally valuable season for me. -Finally saw the end of my divorce, and just very recently paid off the remaining balance of "divorce dues" -Began to find the joy in shooting once again...something that was completely lost for far too long -Lost a crap ton of weight -and at the end of the year, COMPLETELY switched platforms. All it all, I got my butt kicked infinitely more than kicking butts, and that is a good thing: It enabled the learning for what needs to happen in 2013. Page break for a picture of myself and soon to be wife during "Christmas Eve" So, what does 2013 have for me? -Moving in to a new home -Beginning ANOTHER PhD program -Getting hitched -Instating a no tolerance for BS in my shooting or shooting surroundings. If you take away from my self image or are corrosive at all, we will not be interacting any further. -Winning matches like it is my job using my knowledge, experience, fitness and desire to excel. On, and I want to be able to flip up like a ninja from start positions that require us laying flat on our backs. I've been working on it, and so far=OUCH! (and plus, I am tobacco free and will NEVER allow myself contact with it EVER again. Not ever NEVER ever! DONE) Happy New Years to you all, and may 2013 be the best year of your life to date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Anderson Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 This is beautiful: Instating a no tolerance for BS in my shooting or shooting surroundings.

Micah Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 Still tobacco free after 8 days...today I discovered the extra time that I get in the mornings NOT having to pop in a chew and wait 20 minutes before going to the gym. Might shoot a match this Sunday....15f...hope it's sunny! And wouldn't you know, the 1st darn trigger pull this morning during dryfire broke the trigger return spring. I checked my gun log and the last one broke exactly 1 month ago. It would seem that the spring needs replaced quite often if you do a lot of dryfire. To combat this issue presenting in matches, I will have a MATCH ONLY spring that I will use for...um...matches, then take it out and replace it with a dryfire/livefire/who cares about results club matches spring.

steel1212 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 How about dry fire with the backup gun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 How about dry fire with the backup gun? I'm certainly utilizing some of that "found" time to extend gun handling at home Corey. It's funny that you mention the backup SP-01...the finish is still so new and unfunked by holster wear and tens of thousands of maligned reloads that I have not given it a proper dryfiring. I need to take an Ativan or two and just bang it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davisjarrett Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Function being that you like to find obscure videos from the Internet and post them here? Kidding, well sort of. Crazy amount of concentration and spatial awareness there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 ^ You are absolutely right! Actually, there was no incorrect answer. Balance, zen, concentration, having the ability to perceive things that few people can...it all fits. Already half way though January...nothing has really changed routine and ritual-wise...still focusing on dryfire and physical fitness. Spare time has been shifted from perusing the forums to reading scholarly articles and research binders heavier than a bullet order from MG. All of these things in perpetual tandem of wishing away winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Shot a match today...first live rounds that I have shot in over a month. I feel that I did pretty well, but I have two major takeaways from the day: 1) Holy freaking crap I need to be practicing strong/weak hand like my life depends on it! 2) This is the first tobacco free match that I have EVER shot! That's ten years of shooting. I *might* have video...I hope I do...it would be the first time you've probably seen me shoot without a fat chew in my lip.

SirLoin Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 First of all, congratulations on getting engaged! I've been away from shooting/the forums, and am only now catching up. Given that you've tried tons of bullets, how would you rank the plated/moly bullets, like Berrys, Bayou, Frontier, and Xtreme? Which would you say is the best/worst?

Micah Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 I have used Berrys, Bayou, BBI and Precision moly-style bullets, and out of all of those I prefer the Bayou. The covering on them is so hard, it is almost as if it is plated. The Bayou bullets are the cleanest in the barrel, as well as the cleanest in the air out of the rest.

SouthpawG26 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) Awesome. That dude was so perfectly camo'd with the green sweater against a green backdrop, with green pouches and green Velcro, I thought I was just watching a head floating in a green space..

SirLoin Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Thanks for the heads-up on the bullets, Micah. Appreciate it! Jet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
