What are your shooting sport goals for 2013?
JTH:
I'd like to:
1) Shoot to my capability level at major USPSA matches, and
2) Get above 90% of possible points (including penalties) during local USPSA matches, and
3) Break 10 seconds on Smoke & Hope (by timer, not including flight time). Got 10.20 last year---need to drop that by 0.2 seconds.
Last year, I only did #1 once (out of four times) and I don't think I made #2 more than once or twice. I just rush too much, and drop a few too many points. I keep getting between 85-89%. [grumble]
More dryfire practice!

ARG! And just blew goal #2 already with the first match of the year---89.15% of the total possible points. [sigh]
I have GOT to slow down. Had my 3 D-hits been 3 C-hits instead, I'd have made my goal. Even if TWO of them had been C-hits...well, drat.
Okay, NEW version of goal!
Goal #2: Make 90% + of total possible points for all local matches EXCEPT for the first one.

You seem to be well on your way, considering you got third in Production in the match today as a D-class, beating out 5 C-class shooters! (Including a couple that are more than halfway to B-class.)
