Ive always expected to be last.
Then I do my best & I'm usually not.
I'm tickled that I was 14th in the last match on Sunday & 3rd in the vtac standard.
It's not just a signature line, I've worked for it.

And i'm sure you deserve it. However there will be some shooters. Thankfully low in number, who one day throw your game due to some low voiced comment or snide remark towards you.Quote:

The hard part is that I'm not just trying to 'game' it for the competitions. My aim is to learn everything & then apply it where & when I can. The competition is the best training.
You even say when you've had a less than stellar day at the range. Few do so. There's been times the dirt is more scared of me than the targets are. We all have those days.Quote:

For example Ive rested my barrel on the vtac wall more than once in the same string, forgotten to close the bolt when reloading between barricades, or just plain picked a bad position & run out of time.
I shot my first dueling tree last Sunday too.
Now I need to find a texas star to try.
Go to any match for YOURSELF.
Be safe and follow the rules, do your own thing otherwise, and ignore any idiotic criticism that might make it to your ear. Do not let that kind of stuff interfere with your personal progress at whatever speed that happens to be.
If you're there with friends offering constructive advice, that's a whole different deal of course.
Night folks
At the crack of dawn this morning a mean little screaming squirrel learnt whose tree it isn't.
