Classic_jon Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I have been trying to "Call my shots" for the last couple of months and my club had their annual end of year 12 stage match this weekend and the stages I did the best on I can remember seeing the red fiber of my front sight and *knowing* if I was going to hit what I was aiming at or not. I didn't really realize I was doing it until the RO commented on the fact that on one stage I was shooting at a popper that was about 30' away and I shot and did not transition to the next target because I *knew* I had missed it. I reacquired sight picture, hit it and moved on to the next target. I learned a lot in that match and had a LOT of fun too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benos Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Nice work! I always enjoy these "coming together/calling shots for the first time" posts. Once you've experienced your first, rock solid call - now it seems so simple. be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XD Niner Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Yes, it feels great when you can finally call your shots. I think it is a breakthrough that all of us must achieve in our own time and way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Lord Gomer Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 ...and then there was me, thinking about arguing with the RO (was either BOZ or Mark, don't remember) that I *couldn't* have missed that popper because I *saw* the sights when I pulled the trigger. Everyone else probably got a laugh that I ran away from the start position leaving one of the two poppers still standing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
