    Your first match and you squaded with Tim Herron?? What a lucky person you guys are! I have heard nothing but a great things about Tims class. Please go take his class if you can! Good luck on your journey! I just passed my first year in USPSA and this is a great sport!

    Great advice for new shooters. I see too many people come out and watch a match then they never come back and shoot. You guys showed how welcoming the shooting community is.

      It depends where you go like anything else in life. Some places you are made to feel welcome, and others not so much.

    For those considering their first shoot, you will be shocked at how welcoming and helpful the other shooters will be. It's part of the USPSA culture. And you ran with Tim Herron! That's like showing up for basketball clinic and Michael Jordan hangs with you all day giving pointers!

    don't "slow down", increase control. bravo! you don't re-grip, and your follow through is evident. man, you're one of the better "beginners" around. good times ahead!

    Just shot my first match. Very welcoming community, gave me a lot of advice and had great advice. Just as you said, very nervous leading up to my first round. Once my first shot was off I was fine. It's a great time and I did better than I expected. 5th out of 9 and did better each round.

    I'm retired LE and going to start this. I see I will struggle on things like not standing in an "open doorway," when I load a magazine I always invert the gun to let gravity do its thing, we double taped everything. It will definitely be a learning experience for me. Unlearning techniques that have been second nature for a long time, 30+ years. I'll be eating a lot of humble pie for awhile. I'll be shooting iron sights until I get used to optics... crawl, walk, run. Great video guys.

    Just stumbled across this channel. Great video! As an introvert, I absolutely loved that you mentioned the camaraderie that takes place during a shooting match or even in a squad. Shooting might seem like a daunting sport for a lot of people, but once you get to the range, you almost always meet the most supportive, humble and helpful guys. Keep up the good work man!

Keep up the great work man!

    Dude. I had a chuckle at the “road to gm”, but you’re gonna be fine. It’s a serious rabbit hole, but you get to hang with some of the best people around-and not just the fast ones.
    The easiest, cheapest way to a competitive advantage is to learn the rules. Just sayin.
    Your closing description of what it’s like is spot on and good to hear. One of the very best parts of this sport is that once you’re doing it, it’s basically the same everywhere. Sign up, show up, and shoot!

    Great video and very good gun handling. Your approach to your first match is right on. I have doing USPSA for 27 years and still enjoy it. You should check the rulebook that you can load on the USPSA App regarding magazine location relative your belt. From what I can see, the double mag pouches are not legal as they place the outer mag too far outward from your belt.
    I'm not criticizing you, I just don't want you to shoot for no score at a match for illegal equipment.

    Cool. I started 3 years ago (at 65) with Frank Garcia at Universal Shooting Academy. Yes, I waited way too long! First match was the Florida Open, perhaps the hardest match there is! I walked the first match. I hurt my back so I have had to slack off a little but look at my channel and you will see some of what you will go through! Bill

      18 to 20 rounds per stage. So about 80 for the typical match.

    @alonsoarellanocarryoptics Год назад

    Good shooting …. Work on recoil control first , then trigger control, obviously safety is number 1, after you get your accuracy and trigger control then you can work on your movement…. Getting out of the pocket faster… coming into the target with your gun up already,,, transitions etc….
