SHOOT MATCH RESULTS!!!

After much time I have finally completed my challenge to Spocahp Anar. I challenged him to a duel and now I have my 5 shots at 7 yards. After tearing my hands up with my .40 S&W to get the 5 perfect shots it's finally here!



I must admit, I had a little help. This guy that trains ppl gave me some very helpful tips. The best advice was to get a new gun, haha. And I think I will. He even let me shoot his S&W .38 wadcutter? and his Glock 26. I must say, I loved both those guns. My gun has about 12-14 pounds trigger pull. Which is too much for my girly strength. My hands are still shaking from trying to get this done. So hopefully soon I will sell my current gun to a strong man and buy a gun more suitable for a woman's hands.

TexasT remind me not to disrespect you in any way. That is a mighty fine group!

I would highly recommend a Glock. I have a 19 and love it.

Looks like you didn't do to bad with it. At what distance were the shots taken? And .40 S&W out of what gun?
All in all, very good chootin'.

I have a .40 S&W Sigma. Rules were to shoot 5 best shots 7 yards out. Shoot as much as you want but keep your best 5.

First, try moving your feet for your "natural point of aim" to see if that corrects your windage issue. If you are not familiar with this, close your eyes, hold out your gun for firing position, open your eyes. Where are you pointing? Correct as needed by shifting slightly with one foot or the other to correct your natural point of aim.

Secondly... was it the first or last shot that put you at 10 o'clock?

Excellent shootin' Tex...

That was the first one. I tend to have some jerkitis. I really had to be controlled with how I squeezed the trigger.

Ma'am, you have my respect and admiration. There was a time in my life I could not do that no matter how many shots they let me take. That is when I bought a shotgun!

I didn't think I could do that. I give credit to Dave, the Blackwateresque guy that was there coaching me lol.

Ha! I think it was 90% luck. And I'm sure you don't take 30 minutes to place 5 shots lol.

Excellent shooting, good for you. It is always the first or last shot that we throw... for me, it is usually the last.
