My friends opted out of trying to shoot (a wise choice as it turns out because they're not that comfortable with their weapons yet), but they did show up to observe and went away chomping at the bit to get into IDPA themselves. They live in Florida but are planning to move to Colorado within the next year.
BTW, I enjoyed the stages and shot better than I have in ages. Guess I'm finally getting used to the new shooting glasses with different prescriptons in each eye.

Hello everyone. I have not looked at IDPA in a couple years. I been shooting IPSC have grown somewhat uninterested. The improvements to the web site etc are great so far. Tom, Tim's seems like you guys are doing a great job. I will tell you the one thing that made me lose interest.
1. The lack of a bigger match anywhere close to Colorado. I love practicing and shooting and preparing for a big match. I know this takes alot of work. I helped put one on when I was in Utah. The last state match that we had here from what I remember was a great success at least from my opinion.
2. I also think we need another club to shoot at to possibly bring members of those clubs interest up in the sport. I am a member at Ben Lomand and think that would be a great in between place for a match.
I will be at a match soon. Look forward to seeing all of you guys and gals.

welcome to the community. BTW, where is Ben Lomand?
-
it is about 10 miles east of calhan or out past Elizabeth a ways. Probably 45 min or an hour from you. Great range lots of berms, and there is a IPSC club shooting there. I like shooting out there cause not an issue for getting on a berm for practice.

I have a new one to add.
There is "seemingly" no real group/club. I realize there is a group of people that shoot at one or both of the two monthly matches. BUT, no membership, no feeling of belonging to something real. Even if membership is free per se. It's hard to feel connected or excited about something that doesn't really have an existing body of members.... Do you understand what I am trying so terribly to say?????
I managed to join CCCSC last night and was talking to Tom P. and another new member that shoot IPSIC. I got interested just because they are more of a club and are more "official". I really can't make Sunday matches, so it's not very likely I will ever attend an event. Butttttttt
Anyway, if the FRIDPA would have an actual membership roster, I think it might boost the post count. I mean attendance..... LOL
