Hi! back atcha. Welcome to BrianEnos.com. :D
Pride and fear are emotions, which hope for an outcome. Outcomes take your attention from the present, where the shooting happens, to the future. It is totally impossible to do anything in the future, because it hasn't happened yet. The key to shooting your best is to be present as the witness of the shooting. Do not judge, do not give yourself anything to live up to. We can only shoot as well as we have trained ourselves to shoot. To try to shoot only induces stress. Be content with your current ability. And accumulate practice to improve that ability. Consolidate, build strength where you feel weakness. We cannot raise our ability until we accept our current limitations. Practice dissolves limitations. Matches simply define where the current limits exist. The game of shooting is all about redefining our limits.

Welcome to your new home on the Web.

Remember, there are no stupid questions, but there are many that have been already asked (AKA: the search fxn will keep you occupied for weeks, if not months).

Have fun!

new to the forum also , made my 2nd match last weekend - nice outdoor club ...
both matches (other club is indoors) had 32 round stages not sure if thats the norm but sure tuff to get thru with a single stack and 4 mags...
last weekend the stage also had a 5 plate star - very intimidating (ran out of ammo) , maybe i need more practice , mags . ammo, experience , etc.......

great site for info on this sport ! will be searching for tips and tricks here ...
