Im new to this forum, and new to the gun sport world. I found the match i went to today by talking to the guys on this site. I just wanted to thank all the folks out there who bend over backwards to help the new guy.

If you have never shot a match-GO!. It's the most fun i've had in a long time. The facility out in Oak Ridge is top notch, and as said the guys out there are too.(I was even invited to lunch after). Being new I was nervous about doing something stupid and dangerous. They explained everything so well, and were patient to walk me through the course. I took my time, focusing on making the shots and being safe. I acctually did fairly well, and walked away with a whole new understanding of how my gun works, and know what i need work on.

I think I actually out shot a couple of guys... They were wheel shooters though:D

There are no requirements for new shooters. U are incouraged to show up with what u own and have fun. (I thought id ad this since I had a hard time finding out whether or not it was true)

See you in two saturdays at IDPA shoot at ORSA, and THANKS AGAIN

Delighted to hear about your positive experience. We always try to encourage new shooters. It is a commonly held misconception that you need a "race gun" to shoot USPA. NOT TRUE, come on out with your glock, sig, or virtually any other 9mm caliber or bigger pistol, a holster, and 4 - 5 mags and join the fun. Please feel free to email any questions to me at levy.orsa@gmail dot com.

I shot the 3 gun match today along with BigJ45. ORSA has a great facility and Robert, the organizer of the events there is a great guy. More folks from TGO need to start coming out....it's a lot of fun for $15.

I'd like to correct something on my first post... I looked at the final results of the match, and I didn't even beat the guy with the revolver! I wasn't able to complete one of the stages due to magazine capacity, and therefor i'm dead last. Someone has to bring up the rear may as well be me

As long as you had fun that's all that matters. Get you another mag or two and play again!! See you next time.
