<br>
Just signed up with the forum. I signed up with IDPA last week and am looking forward to my very first match on November 28th at the PSC range in Friendswood.
<br>
No that&#39;s not right... I&#39;m not just &quot;looking forward&quot; to the match... I&#39;m excited as heck and can hardly wait!
<br>
I&#39;ve been practicing around the house, reading everything I can (tips, tricks, this forum, etc.) and watching as many videos as I can find.

I&#39;ve been shooting since I was... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Greetings IDPA forum members!
<br>
<br>
New guy from Canada here...  Shot my first match in May of this year and my first sanctioned was Idaho State.
<br>
<br>
I think I&#39;m hooked...
<br>
<br>
I decided to join to forums to get the scoop on upcoming matches and &quot;meet&quot; a fellow shooter online.  And maybe pick up a few tips...
<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,

			<description><![CDATA[ Hi all,
<br>
I have been shooting for years and was always interested in IDPA.  But never really considered getting involved until I discovered a Rifle and Gun club in the
local area that has IDPA matches.  I have been lurking on these forums in an attempt to learn more.  Looks like a great site to help me learn and understand
more.  I am looking forward to being a member here.

			<description><![CDATA[ WOW!!
<br>
We had a great time in Clinton, NC today!! My 11 year old and I shot our first IDPA match today, and we are both eager to see our results. My son did AWESOME
for a first timer, and especially for a first timer YOUTH shooter. He will be 12 in February, and that gives him 6 months to get his skills honed before he can
join IDPA and then qualify. From what I saw today, he will be a VERY strong contender.
<br>
<br>
We will definitely be participating in every match we can!! ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I&#39;ve been a bullseye shooter in the past and became interested in IDPA.  Just shot my first match in Factoryville, PA and had a blast.  Walt Jones and Mike
Lahey were among many who guided me through the postal stages and made things very relaxing and enjoyable.  I&#39;m not at all interested in scoring at this
point, but more focused on reinforcing proper fundamentals at each future match (rather than speed).  I think speed will come naturally when the fundamentals
become second nature.... ]]></description>

<br>
I&#39;m a Looooooong time shooter, but just shot my first IDPA match about six weeks ago.  What a kick in the pants!  I thought that it was great, but it has
been a busy summer and I am just now looking at going again.  The local league&#39;s next event is billed as a Super Shoot.  What is the differance between
this and a regular event?  Am I going to be out of my depth?  Should I wait for the next regular event?  Thanks for any advice. ]]></description>
