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.
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!.

I came in to this match with a mental objective. I used to be so affected by shooters around me, times and places in the standings that I didn't get to shoot my game. I ended up shooting someone else's game and that caused me to falter in my execution.
This time round I managed to keep it sound. I enabled "match mode", and called my shots. If I had a bad stage, I mope and swear but leave it behind. If I had a good stage, I celebrate and laugh but leave it behind as well.
This allowed me to shoot my game and I'm very happy to be able to achieve 9th in Open. There were some stupid things I did but I knew exactly how I got them. I called all my mistakes and identified what caused them so I will not do it again.
It was a fun and fast match with lots of options. Thanks to the SLUSPSA guys for putting together this major match.
Shoutout to my squad mates, SQUAD 40, Super Squad... D.

Went to a Tuesday Night Action Pistol Match at West Coast Armory North in Everett tonight to get some trigger time for Area-1. Was a fun short match, great group of people.
Was there to test my backup gun but it wasn't running so switched back to my primary as a backup for my backup.

John my fav gunsmith from jplprecision.com installed and tuned a new extractor and firing pin for me. Here's a highspeed video of the rounds getting stripped from the gun. All ejecting brass clears the ejection port at the correct angle without hitting the C-more sight. Perfect!

Gorgeous day to go out shooting. One of the last few matches before it gets cold and gray. Some stupid lapse in concentration yielded in some mikes and noshoots.
