rc2125 Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Got a break from bad weather and got to enjoy my first IDPA match in southwest Michigan yesterday. It was a great time and got the "first match jitters" outa the way. Everyone was very helpful and answered any questions that came up. Had some neat stages to run through, focused on making hits while concentrating on fundementals and got through it just fine! Can't wait for the next match!

Paul Burtchell Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 (edited) Welcome to the forum and congrats on the first match. Welcome to the addiction. Safety first, of course, and all "Zero's" will take you a long way in IDPA. Edited July 13, 2008 by baerburtchell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me personally, I found that attending my first match was the most difficult. After I discovered how cool shooters tend to be, I love travelling around and shooting at new venues. Keep shooting and you'll find that the more you shoot the better you'll get. Wow... that was like so... insightful! I find that I love hanging out with people that shoot. I feel it is the creme de la creme of friendly society! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
