I think I did well in the "Pathetic" division. I got both first and last. :)

But you got second in your ACTUAL division, so I'm thinking "NOT pathetic."
JTH:
72 shooters on a day with just about PERFECT shooting weather. Seriously, that was a good time.
(Well, other than my "hey, let's use ALL the rounds in this magazine!" string of fire on Smoke & Hope. Yeesh. Not good when you hear your entire squad laughing behind you at the end of the string...)
Good to see everyone out there, and if you WEREN'T there---boy did you miss out. It was gorgeous out, and tons of fun.

Well, I felt pathetic, particularly on the first couple of stages. What are these bumpy things on top of the gun for? :)
But again, I feel like I'm making progress with my shooting. That's a victory of sorts.

EVERYBODY needs to shoot these Steel Challenge shoots. They're fun (nothing like the sound of ringing steel.) They're a great benchmark for gauging your shooting skills. You'll learn stuff, like the need to look at your sights and the value of trigger control. And last but not least, you'll get to hang out with some great folks.

Lorimor:
Please take heart from my own sterling example of ultra-rapid handgunnery progress.
In the past month, I've rapidly progressed from Total DQ to Absolutely Dead Last: Open Class (35/35) to maybe 3-4-5 or so up from the very bottom of the Open classification in yesterday's Steel Challenge.
Growth at warp speed, that.
If you or anybody wants, I'll give certified lessons. All that needs to be done is to pay for range fees, ammo, and loan of Kimber Commander or Officer's Model (or moral equivalent) for an indeterminate period of time.
Jeez....if I can progress so well so fast, I can teach you or anybody................
