Was a fun match today. The Custer Sportsmen's Club organized a match inspired by the upcoming Area-1 stages which was really interesting. It was a very close match against a buddy of mind JohnV from TN, we were trading 5-10points throughout the entire match until the last stage which became the deciding stage. JohnV edged out a better performance to win by 6 points total. Congrats on getting $1 richer ;) This match was a mental match for me. I told myself to ignore everything bad and good that will happen. Leave the stage as is and move on. I was trying to get into a place where I can focus on shooting and not let anything affect me, especially worrying about my times, scores and the need to catch up to someone else. Although I didn't win the match and was slow in some stages, I am proud to say that I've learned how to get into the zone and shut everything out. Now all I need to do is to trust that this works and shoot my best game every time.

Flew down to St. George, Utah this past weekend to shoot the 2017 Berry's Steel Open Championship. It's a hybrid match with three major disciplines combined. Steel Challenge, Dynamic or Time plus/Tuesday Night Steel and Scramble or Par-time/proam style courses. Came in 9th overall Open division and had a great time shooting this all steel match. Utah was beautiful and the range was fantastic. Looking forward to returning to St. George to shoot the Area 1 Championships in a month.

Finally got to shoot a USPSA match after a whole month. There aren't a lot of clubs open during winter which is understandable, but the season is starting up which is really exciting.
