Folks - As always, enjoyed the match and looking forward to doing it again soon. Meanwhile I will obsess over my mistakes and the need to get focused rapidly in the moment and out of the other headspaces that get in the way. Shot an earlier squad, which is always good for a cold test right from the stress of the normal workday - but my performance clearly showed the lack there. (Though that is not the only thing source of suck for me today....) But we this is why we do train and test.
I particularly appreciated the pseudo shoot house door and halls setup. Nicely done, and nice touch on the opening style. One of the worst ways to have to go through a door, especially right into hostile targets. Very useful stage in some ways though, given that the setup is very common for interior bedrooms et al. Upon reflection, I was trying to understand why I it felt like I was hesitating too much at the door (even though objectively it was not really much more than a typical quick peek / third eye weapon as far as time count) - and I don't think I would have used what would have been an interior wall as cover as the stage dictated, but rather have gone dynamic and gotten out of the funnel. Though out of the funnel into a corridor problem is admittedly not much better - there is definitely room for further conversation on that one, not least of which because it is a good test for the typical at home scenario.
Appreciate the staff's investment of time and energy to make this happen. Hope we can get the future ones scheduled and locked in.
My first time shooting the KSTG match. It was outstanding. I also liked the fact that it is much more laid back than IDPA where equipment is concerned. I definitely look forward to the next one. Where are the scores for tonight going to be posted? Also, is there a Facebook page for KSTG?
Had a great time tonight as always. Glad I was finally able to do the FASTest! Thanks for putting on a great event!

That was a fun match! Thanks, Todd and all for running it for us.
One of these days I'm going to make it all the way through a KSTG match without incurring a penalty.
