It was incidents like this and others within the sport that eventually led me to start IDPA Canada with a few others. I do enjoy shooting IPSC, I love a lot of the people but didn't need the headaches and drama. Now I focus my shooting on the two way ranges and dabble on the one way ranges when home on leave. If I shoot well at a match...bonus, if I suck at a match...bonus, I have fun and I and still alive. The point is to keep it in perspective, none of these sports are indicutive of whats it like out in the big bad world, have fun, its a game, a sport, nothing else.
P.S. You know how some sport shooters slag and call Airsofter's "poser's & wannabe's"... I wonder if Contractor's call sport shooters the same? its all in the perspective. No matter which sport you roll, enjoy it.
