Thanks for the advise... I was telling myself all night that I needed to s-l-o-w d-o-w-n, as I wasn't been neither accurate nor fast! Well, lots of room for improvement, but that's really the whole reason why I wanted to get on this.

I shot my first IDPA match last Wednesday evening. It was fun, exciting... and I ended up dead last! Well, that's exactly the reason why I wanted to start doing this, so that I get to practice shooting while moving, with the clock ticking and in low-light. So many things I need to improve on, but I am planning to go back next week.

The folks with TTS are a friendly bunch... looks like some have been shooting there for years and know each other well. I felt a bit odd at times, but everybody was so nice and made me feel welcome.

match cancelled due to rain I'll be there next week

Nice shooting, canvasback... that's quite impressive!

Thanks for the advice... at this point my interest is just practicing, not really competing. I've never participated in anything like this, so I have no expectation on finishing ahead of anybody!

Glad to hear they run good matches... would be nice to make it to one of the Saturday matches, but for now I'll stick with the Wed or Thr night practice matches.

@canvasbck, pick vest? really?

Thanks for the link and info, Ross... I'll look into that as well.

So what is Thunder Shooter's Club all about?

I've been thinking about IDPA for a while now... decided to sign up for a couple of matches with Thunder Tactical Shooters up in Conroe (at Thunder Gun Range).

So, I'll be there next Wednesday evening...

Anyone here shoots with TTS? or has been to Thunder Gun Range?
