Novice IDPA shooter

Send Ironman a PM. I have to drop out of this Sunday’s match due to family commitments. Get your gear ready. You’ll need 3 mags and a “ topper” mag for the 11th round ( or just handload one).
Bring $30 match fee and around 160rds of ammo. Max 18x8 stages is 144 but that rarely happens.

Get there before 8am and ask for edgy or Ironman (Jay). If there is no waiting list, you may get to shoot! They’ll give you the rules and introduce you to the MD. Both edgy and Jay are SOs. Try and squad with one of their groups. I guarantee you’ll have a blast! I’m not sure how edgy makes money on his corn! He gives so much away!!

Jimbo will likely squad with either edgy or ironman also. He is an IPSC shooter with a CZ so we don’t talk to him much. He also usually finishes very high and has this annoying dance when he kicks butt.

Lol. Ok, so the answer to my question is "probably this weekend, get your sh*t together". Sweet. Thanks for the help guys, always a good group here.

....and now I’ll change the dance to include something about Glocks and I’ll wear skin tight spandex! Lol!

Lex: pm Ironman0731, not just ‘Ironman’

I have spoken with ironman0731, gonna do an orientation of sorts Wednesday night. Although I'm seriously thinking about reconsidering, given this new information about spandex...

Didn't want to start a new thread, but thanks CFGPA for a great intro to IDPA. I'm typing this now, as I've only just regained feeling in my fingers... Special thanks to Ironman 0731 for going over the basics with me on Thursday, made for a memorable first match for sure.

Glad you had fun! It was freezing out there! Jimbo told me you did very well for your first match. Wasn’t it cool to see what you need to do to catch Ironman? His 2nd place finish was amazing considering no one could feel their hands!

Haha. I don't think I can afford to throw as much lead down range as Ironman, but I could definitely use some more practice... are the results posted somewhere? I couldn't find them, and I'm curious as to how I did...
 
It was great meeting you Lex. I believe the results will be uploaded to Practiscore. Ironman0731 kicked my butt. I’m home drinking rum now. Lol!

Ya sure and next thing you will be telling us is the Sun rose in the West, said screw this and dropped the air temperature 20 degrees. LOL Someone had a good day. It just seems to be the shooter not the arrow. No wonder I lose so often to the kid down the block.

Take Care

That sounds like a challenge! Ironman ( Expert IDPA) and his M&P vs jimbo ( A class IPSC) and his CZ for an entire season. We should keep track and see.
