I dont even have opportunity to try a practice run before the match... learning curve here I come!

[Irving]

GilpinGuy, how's your aquaponics set up doing?

[ChickNorris]

Irving! You shoot Uspsa...

[Irving]

I have shot uspsa, but I wouldn't look to me for any advice. You looking to get involved?

[ChickNorris]

The Big Ben is going to be a hybrid of that flavor & prs-ish.

[ChickNorris]

Pretty sure the three rules are, be safe, be safe & shoot the brown paper, yes?

[ChickNorris]

Oversimplifying of course, but that is the gist, no?

[Irving]

That sounds super fun. Is that what you meant when you said you hadn't shot up close before?

Maybe glance at the rules, because I don't know, but often pistol targets need to be engaged at least twice. So see if your favorite range will let you do double and triple taps.
There is of course much more to competition shooting than being able to pull the trigger fast. In fact I'd say that's one of the last skills you should work on, BUT I've seen many people with admirable marksmanship skills being intimidated about going fast just because they've never actually tried it before.

[ChickNorris]

O...k...

Well I didn't know about much when I showed up for Hoser's or the PRS match & I did fine. I'm just nervous because it's new & there will be super talented people there.

[ChickNorris]

Best part about that is that there will be super talented people there to watch & learn from.
