Here are stages 1 - 6 from the recent 2017 Area One Championships in Hurricane, UT at the beautiful Southern Utah Practical Shooting Association's range. We shot this on Day 2 and these were my worst stages of the match. All started with a stuck case in Stage 3 followed by a ton of mikes. Did not consistently call my shots.

Short 5 stage match where I had two gun malfs and really feeling slow for some reason. I need to shoot angry again.

My Father's Day present, to be able to go off for the weekend and shoot the 2016 Inland Empire Sectional Championships. It was a fun 9+1 stage Level 2 match shot at the Rattlesnake Shooting Facility in Benton City. I couldn't engage match mode for a few stages and I paid dearly in penalties. Still managed to edge out 3rd Open. Thanks to everyone who setup this match every year, I'll be back!.

Had to bring my Sterling out again to shoot this match and it was hilarious. The reloads take as much time as I'd take to shoot a stage in open.
Well what can I say, at least I made Master in PCC ;)

Shot this USPSA like match (one stage shot three times) at the West Coast Armory range in Bellevue, WA. We shot the same stage twice, once in low light and the third time was a quick round dumping stage. I shot the lowlight stages with www.glowammo.com which is a non-incendiary chemical tracer. Pretty interesting results. can't see much from the first person view but def from the 3rd person. Will load up more GlowAmmo and record the effects.
