I think I have won one match so far in IDPA, and that was the IL State match as a novice. I'm marksman now, but need to do more dry fire presentation, reloading, and trigger control before I will be able to move to SS. I don't care to much about winning. I look more for number of points down, number of shots missed, and shooting the stage as tactically as I know how.
Maybe if Marty has some training classes around the tactical match, I may be able to convince my wife on taking a short vacation in WA.
