Hey y'all,

Tonight was the last day of our 2 weekend basic class. This was a blast. Only sad thing is that it's over. :-(

Again, I will post my views then Angi's.

This class really helped me with my groups and my trigger control. I've still got a lot to learn though. I shot my best group ever tonight. Of course it was at 8'. But still. That first double action shot is still a bit of a bugger. I did get to try a Colt Commander. I shot my Sig better. I guess that is to be expected with familiarity and all. The final was 10 rounds at 8', 16', 21', 32' and 50'. I was able to get all but one at 50' in the max scoring and that was in the second highest region, Yea! I had never been able to get much of anything at 50'. We are going to take another basic class before we take the advanced.

Now the better half,

I enjoyed the class, and I learned how to correct my problem. The instructor gave me some dummy rounds to practice with. I hope to get better before we take the next basic class. I'll have to do some more dry fire practice when I get a chance!
