It's the 3rd Tuesday again!
JimP:
Not likely. There are shooters of ALL levels (and not a few noobs), and if your gun functions reliably, you WON'T be the slowest competitor. A lot of guys ignore the single most important feature of a Defensive Pistol: It must go Bang! every time. It doesn't matter how accurate it is, how big a hole it makes, or anything else. If you draw and pull the trigger, and it goes "click" when it should have gone "Bang!", you haven't even scared the BG.....
Jay:
Very true, Jim, but as most people that know me will be glad to attest, one of my many faults is that I have this stupid competitive nature that I just can't shake.
Dumb, I know, but I can't help it.
JimP:
It's not about winning .......... it's about training. It's about getting better than you are. Because you will never be good enough if you don't train. And you can't be an impartial judge of your own performance...........
JimP:
Bueller?................ Bueller?............. Bueller?.............. Anyone?
Come and watch, or better yet, get a safety/rules brief (now required of new shooters) and shoot. Bring a carry gun, holster, 40-50 rounds, and a cover garment (not difficult this time of year!)
If you've never done anything like this before, walk through it at first, concentrating on getting technique down. Speed will come with practice........
Good trainin'.....
Jay:
We may make it up there tonight, but not sure yet. Nick's grandpa passed away and the funeral is today. Kim and her boys are going, not sure what time they will be back around tonight or if they will be in the mood to go. Nick might stay at his dad's, not sure. I will get ahold of you later if it looks like we are going to make it.
