After talking abd thinking about it for almost a year, I finally got off my arse and emailed the contact person for the local IDPA chapter (turns out it's about 40 minutes north of me, is St. Francis).
Anyway, he called me last night, and gave me a lot of good info, not the least of which is that I really ought to check out IPSC as well, for the simple reason that I'll get to go out and shoot more often, as there are a lot more IPSC matched held reasonably close to me, instead of just once a month.
Sooooo.....I'm going to my first IPSC match Saturday, and my first IDPA on the following Saturday! I'm just going to watch the first time and see how it all flows, and learn what I can.
I'm so excited I can hardly sit still!
Any advice from you competition veterans? Things I should look for, anything?
This is gonna be FUN!
