    Just uploaded scores to USPSA site Spanky will probably attach a link on the EAPS webpage, but I'll try here. If my link doesn't work just long onto www.uspsa.org and look under the heading Match Results and search either LA03, our club number, or East Ascension Practical Shooters and click on the date of the match. Somehow that doesn't look right, but hey, I'm a senior citizen and at least I tried.

    It was a fun match today big thanks to those that went setup in the heat on Sat. I got around 6 matches under my belt and it seems my shooting is going down hill I hope its just the heat.

    It happens to a lot of people. You are almost certainly trying too hard-- which is to say you're actively trying after the buzzer goes off.

    Ask me how I know. :p

    Haha. Thanks for not poking fun at my massive ass-sweat (as opposed to massive-ass sweat) - it was hot as hell out there, and I picked pants that make it seem even worse, apparently.

    at the end you can hear Spanky trying to make me realize "Dumbass, you forgot to targets" but I couldn't remember which ones, so I gave up, rather than waste time walking around and looking for unshot cardboard.

    Good day - can't wait until summer is over...

    We had a great match today. thanks to everyone for staying well hydrated and also for the help policing brass and tearing down the stages. We had a great turnout.
    I don't know about you guys and gals, but a little cooler weather would be magnificent. :)

    Spanky: Ever diagnose the issue with that gun?

    I was going to say the same thing.

    The hat cam is awesome though, Spanks. Just quit wearing it with a "homie tilt"!

    I much prefer your variation of Short Sprints over the one we shot today. Ugh, what a disaster. My elbow gets better, I stop shooting so much SHO... and it shows.
