2013 Alabama State IDPA Championship
 
Tomorrow I will be shooting at the 2013 Alabama IDPA Championship at Central Alabama Gun Club in Montgomery Al.


There will 178 shooters and 12 Stages for the match, This will be my first Major match and I know that I'm outclassed and at a disadvantage. I say this because they will have moving targets of all sorts (clamshells, spinners, texas star and various others), I'm not use to shooting these except for the star.

In my division and classification (ESP div, Sharpshooter class)there are 14 shooters.

I'll try to get some pics (time allowing) and will post a update sometime sunday.


All I can do is Shoot the best match I can.

Well I made it through my first Major Match. Although I Shot a awful match it was a great day, Put hits on all movers and believe me some was fast movers, charge with 2 Procedurals (not following course of fire) 4 Failure to Neutralize (getting just one hit on a target, and 1 hit on a non-threat but did get my hit on the target behind the non-threat.

Had to do 2 re-shoots 1 for some targets not being pasted and 1 for a steel dropping and not releasing a mover. I had good times on the stages but just not making my hits.

The squad I was in had some of my fellow club members in it along with a few other shooter, 1 was from my hometown of Flagstaff, Az who made the trip just to shot the match, It was a looooooong day up at 4am and got home a 10pm.

Below is a link to some photos they put up, I happen to be in photos 151 to 156. Pretty cool action pics.
