Looking like I'll be going. My first IDPA match.

 

[Siderite]

Does anyone know if the match will still run given the high winds?

 

[Skroggster]

30 MPH winds! You would have to shoot @ T1 to hit T2. Rough but challenging.

 

[Siderite]

Match ran. It was a good time. Wind, yeah, wind, I'm definitely blaming the wind for missing the steel couldn't possibly be bad sight alignment.

Weather warmed up, sun came out for a bit. Stages were fun and challenging, with weak-hand-only and strong-hand-only segments in unusual positions (weak-hand-only prone).

Thanks to Tony for putting on a great match!

I was there! Were we in the same squad, Siderite? I was in Mike Parks' squad.

I hit the steel just fine, but I had a little visual confusion on the paper targets on that stage and I lost my balance and almost fell down. Good thing Mike steadied me (he must be really strong!).

My squad had fun even though it was windy and chilly and sometimes almost rainy.
