For those who saw my post yesterday, well tonight was the IDPA match, and it was TOTALLY AWESOME! I've never had more fun shooting than I did tonight. The match was exceptionally well organized, managed, and all the shooters were as friendly as could be (especially in helping the new guy). I'm sure I had everyone wondering who the new idiot was, because after I shot each stage I know I wandered about with a big goofy grin on my face for a while.
I think I shot pretty well, although it doesn't really matter because it was FUN! I shot ESP/Unclassified, and overall I shot about the same as the low Sharpshooters (high 80 seconds). No Masters showed up, and the Experts pretty much hovered around the high 60 seconds mark. Sharpshooters were mostly in the 80's, and Marksman were mostly in the low 100's. I was actually very surprised to find out I had the best time for the 1st Stage out of the ESP shooters, and was 4th overall on the 1st stage. So, aside from having a ton of fun, I actually did o.k. too.
Of course now I'm totally addicted! How can I go back to the regular shooting bay now?! I'm ruined!
Well anyway, I had a really great time, and I can't wait for June to arrive, since they are going to run two matches as well as a classifier. This is gonna be great!
Best Regards - Brad
