March scores here

Actually, I have no score to post. Not shooting much .22 in any case, mostly all .45 as our indoor league winds down. I have decided to forgo the red dot optic on my guns and return to iron sights. That has caused what is at least a temporary drop in my scores. So....I won't be posting much until I ...

checking

One thing I quit doing that has helped sustained fire, is never check the target between strings. I see a lot off people doing it, but in my opinion, it can only make things worse. When you see a bad first string, it can play with your mind, and a really good one, plays with my mind even more. I ag...

working better

I shot outdoors on Sunday - I won't even post the scores - it was not a real match and my shooting was not very good in any case, averaging just over 270. Last night I was indoors practicing that "concentrate on the black rather than the dot" technique. That is developing quite nicely (Thank you, Pl...

focus

I have been trying that "focus on the black and not the dot"technique. I like the idea and was having success with it. Tried a gallery last night though (our league .22 matches are coming to and end. Centerfire matches start.) 92 SF, 96 TF and the rapid went all to hell. Right after that, though, I ...

good ideas

Plaza: Thanks for those ideas. That focus on the black instead of the dot is a particularly good suggestion. I will be trying that as well as the trigger control as you suggested. I have plenty of time to practice (I am retired) and the range is only a three minute walk from my home. I just need to ...

clays

My first time shooting 16 yard trap, hit ONE of 25 clays. I was, though, hooked. Now I manage the occasional 25 straight. The "big guys" will shoot 99-100 straight (or better).
I managed 92/100 the other day....those eight lost targets are the hardest to add to one's average.
