Thanks to everyone who came out and sympathy for the folks who got caught in the traffic disaster and had to cancel.

Fixed; thanks!

I'm having the same error message on the scorecard

Thanks to Todd, Joe, Josh, Fred and all the others for hosting a great match. I really liked shooting that stage over and over with reduced time each time. Great to see improvement each run, and there was enough time in between to think about different ways to game it

The company that hosts the forum (and therefore, these scores) changed something a while back and now it's difficult for me to do the raw score uploads.

The link should work now.

Thanks Todd for the spreadsheet.

I'm pleased with everything except for my classifier time. For the amount of time I actually spend practicing the FAST, I choked real bad. I had been doing ~8.5 seconds perfect in practice; ended up doing 8.76 with misses. Guess we're back to the range for more practice. Was definitely happy that my raw times on the second section got faster every time I did it. Wish I had gotten that final turning target. Was so close...

chrismark420: Are you practicing for the FAST by running a bunch of FASTs, or are you trying to get better at the skills needed to do well at the FAST - like the reload and a draw to a low probability shot?

[chrismark420]

JV - I'll be honest, I'm mostly running the FAST a lot. Probably 25-30 runs per range session, unless I notice something going consistently wrong, where I'll switch move to work on that. My most recent range sessions, I was having issues with my first shot hitting. So I slowed it down and worked on my present and fire exclusively until I was able to draw, present and land the shot. Then I'd do it again till I felt I could do it consistently. Done the same for reloads, but I know I can definitely improve on that.

I'm open to suggestions, so bring on the advice. Drills, things to focus on, let me know. Thanks in advance

Thank you for coming out!

These matches are as much fun for us as they are (hopefully) for the folks that participate in them.

Great shooting and see you next month!

JV is right as usual. Practicing the FAST is just inefficient use of range time and ammo. Why? Because you're never practicing. You're just testing yourself again and again and again which means you're probably not focussing on any one discrete part of the drill for incremental improvement.

Does your reload need work? Why waste all that ammo and time just to get in one reload each run?

Are you struggling to make the head shots at speed? Why throw away 2/3 of your ammo on the 8" circle then?

And so on.

edited to add: of the FAST Coin holders, I bet none of them ever spent a big chunk of a day's practice shooting the FAST over and over again. OTOH, plenty of people who have spent a big chunk of a day's practice (or many days' practice) shooting the FAST over and over again have tried for a coin... and failed.
