After that I found a mentor, bought every book, watched every video, dry practiced daily for 30-45 minutes using Steve Anderson program (and later Stoeger), once the weather allowed I was live firing 2-3 times a week 150-200 rounds a session. First with Seeklanders program then Stoeger. By the end of the next season shooting every match I could, becoming an RO, helping with set up, I had made it all of the way to, wait for it, B class. Whoopie. I was discouraged but kept working and was almost to A when I encountered health problems that stopped my shooting for almost 2 years. Just getting back into it heavy now.
