Hello, My name is Art

Just wanted to say thank you to all those people who have taken the time to post information on shooting and discipline skills. Over the last few month of lurking and reading posts I was able too get a rather modest shooting kit and rifle. With the information from poster on this site I was able to compete in my first match today, a 160 shot match Smallbore prone. (Also 103 heat index at mountain home) I accomplished my two goals: 1) shoot the entire course Safely and Two: make Marksman level, (1315 out of 1600). I know my score in all reality was poor but I have time to improve, anyway had a good time. Not bad for a person with severe ADD.

Thanks, Art

Great! You've taken the hardest step. Just keep at it and compete against yourself. The classification system is really nice because it gives you milestones to work towards. Glad to have another smallbore shooter.
