Very well done, Phil, + everything, only competitors know what you have done. I wish I was there.

aww  chucks    

thanks guys  


well it was a very good weekend  I had a ball  there

it was the 2009 Victorian  Combined Services State Titles  as it was only 4 hour drive I though I would head over and give it a crack.

I arrived just Friday night after leaving work early just in time for the Night Match. I have never shot at night before   need glow in the dark sights hehe was a heap of fun and need to do that again when I can see the sights on my pistol.
I ended up getting 3rd shooting Class 1 pistol ( 9mm )  and got my self a nice bottle of Shiraz for my effort ( quite embarrassing as I had a shocker )

I took over 2 pistols

my PT 99 .9mm  with a PT92 slide that has fixed sights to make it a Class 1
and a S&W  686 as my class 2 gun


I was a little slack and did not get many pics  

My camping spot for the weekend



the Range


so at the end of the 6 matches I was in  

I ended up with 3 Silver's
Class 1  25 Meter Rapid Fire
Class 1  Core Event  
Class 2  50M Deliberate

I was very happy with how I shot my class 1  except for the 50m  shot gun would  looked better

the class 2 was average for me though  let my self down with the 15m part of the core event  

however over all am very happy as this was the first time I have ever shot a comp that was not at my club and an interstate match. I am in  C Grade  it was very pleasing for me to know I am competitive at that grade  however I have lots of improvement to go



Yay me    



I also had a go for the first time at IPSC  Match  it was not a full on match  just 2 senarios


I NEED more mags  2 would not do it for me,   so I borrowed one of the guys CZ 75 to have a go

the match was called Bucked of bullets  where all the mags were in the bucket and we had to carry the bucket as we went though  double tapping every "Bad Guy" target and are not meant to take friendly's  ( hehe well I had a couple of casualty's of war )


I have  got to do more comps  like that.

Nah he's just ripping a yarn, probably a bit parched and spitting chips as he is knocking up a bit of plaster, which makes him dry as a dead dingos donger, and will have no doubt blown the froth off a couple hence his verbal anguish!
