Anyone shooting IPDA with Texas Tactical this weekend? (March 16/17)

Looking for some insight and any advice for a first timer.

Also, I've read the IDPA rule book but want to know how closely they follow it. I prefer to wear a gun belt with holster at the hip instead of a paddle holster. Wondering if that's ok for this time.

Safety rules are enforced pretty tightly as they should be.

I can't speak to specifics of IDPA rules as I've only competed a few times.

In general, its a very good time. What gun are you shooting? (That determines your class you'll shoot in). You may run into some local know it alls but generally people are between neutral and positive. If you're unsure of anything, ask before you run your stage. It also helps to watch the people before you.

Good group, I've worn a battle belt and its been ok. Lots of fun.

Thanks. Sounds like the makings of a fun time. I'm going to be shooting a Glock 17 so I'll be hanging out with the fellas shooting the pea shooters (9 mm).

I usually shoot with Texas Tactical. This past weekend was rained out unfortunately (Sunday). If you have any questions or need any advice, I'm more than happy to help and give some pointers, especially if we happen to be at the same match.

It doesn't really go by caliber. Read about the different classes. I think you'd be in Stock Service Pistol.

I'll be in SSP as well, shooting my Glock 22 gen 4. Bummed that it was cancelled last weekend, but I'll be up there Saturday for my first.

Whoops. Yeah, I meant SSP . I'm going to go out for the match on Sunday. Hope to meet some of you out there.

I can't make it on Sundays as I try to go to church. Let us know how you all liked it if you make it out there. Be safe and enjoy it.
