On Saturday I helped run an IDPA regional shooting match at Prescott Action Shooters, the gun club Gary and I belong to. This is the first IDPA sanctioned match I’ve been to. We had just under 100 competitors on 8 squads. I was the squad safety officer for a squad of 11. My job was to collect and record the score for each shooter for 9 courses of fire, help the squad move through the match, and watch for any unsafe firearms handling. It turned out to be a lot of work, but it was enjoyable.

I got some photos, they are at this link on Flickr: https://flic.kr/s/aHskjqJMBX Come and see!

Update 1/7/2011  This match has been CANCELED by the match director due to snow on the range and range road

Prescott Action Shooters is having its monthly IDPA match on Saturday, 1/8/2011 at 10 am (pre match meeting at 9:30). IDPA is a great place to practice you CCW (concealed carry) skills. These matches are a lot of fun too.
