We've got a steel match coming up on the 20th, and a USPSA match on the first Sunday of March...

Had the chance to go to ENGC on Sunday March 6 to watch the USPSA matches. What I saw was a very organized, controlled shoot, with about 50 competitors. There were some very strong shooters, and there were some that were there for the chance to improve their own abilities. All said the same thing.
" What a great time ".

For all of us that only shoot at stationary targets in some field somewhere, You need to give this a try.
This will get your heart-rate up. And if you are a "rookie" like me, I know that they would be more that happy to help you thru your 1st event as long as you are honest with them about your abilities, read and understand the range safety rules, and don't try to be the next "top shot".

Check out the links on this post, and make sure you have eye and ear protection, even if just a spectator.
