Ben Stoeger - 3.24 FAST

[Ben Stoeger]

That's smokin fast, but it looks like a 4x6 for the head instead of the required 3x5.

I can't hit a 3x5 card

Another good example of why YouTube vids aren't eligible for coins, official records, etc. I don't believe anyone would set it up wrong purposely, but there are so many little things that need to be right to be official.

Or perhaps a 4x6 is what makes it the IDPA FAST Drill.

edited to add: Before anyone flips out, I know Stoeger didn't intend the video to be "official" either.

I am just getting trained up so I can score a coin in a class.

We posted simultaneously ... or rather, I was editing my previous post simultaneously. I know you weren't "trying out" for a coin or anything. But the question has been raised so much lately that I felt it was worth explaining.

Ok it turns out all I have are 4 by 6 index cards laying around my house.

Solution: Fold the card in half and re run this drill next week.

I am a FAST noob so cut me a break.

Fold it in half so it's 2x6, not 4x3.

Can't I do the 4x3 at like 15 yards or something?

[jmjames]

Could just cut an inch off each side.
