This was my first IPSC match and, other than the rain, I had a great time. The 3-2-1 format kept things interesting and left no place to hide.

The rain was a real challenge. At stage 7 we were about 3 hours behind schedule on the one day Friday format. After the rain stopped around stage 10, we hustled through and finished the match as the sun set on stage 17. Stage 17 had a swinger protected by no shoot steel. I was one of the early shooters on the squad and it was difficult to see.

One of the issues I’ve had with reloading over the years is sorting out cases from manufacturers…

Club match. Kept up with the local 20 year old heat on a couple stages. Totally blew the classifier.

First time shooting since nationals and an overall match win. Woot!

Nationals performance wasn’t what I wanted but it was what I deserved. Multiple penalties on stage 7 (FTSA and 2M) from a mental error cost a lot in the results. I ended up 125 of 275 and 9th Senior.

This was my first year checking the Senior box and I was invited to shoot on a squad with some of the best Senior shooters. I had a great time on the squad and hope to do it again.

I played match director for this match. I ended up shooting most of the stages on staff day and 2 during the main match.

Last match before Carry Optics Nationals. I made a rookie mistake on the last stage and didn’t…
