I could use some extra practice. Has anyone shot these matches?

I tried static steel not so long ago as my first steel match and I believe the we had 3 stages. Not bad to practice on as it was a relaxed atmosphere.

 

Are you trying to get ready for the big steel match in old bridge on Oct 1? I just sent my application in today.

Nah. I did not even know there was a big steel match that day. I will be shooting USPSA at Shongum that day. It may be a light turnout for the Shongum match due to the steel match.

is this a good place for a first match? I completely suck but I'm interested in trying. Also what is needed? All the uspsa gear and membership? this seems to be the closest place to passaic county for this type of event. Of anyone knows any other places please inform me.

The Shongum match is a good one to start if you want to do USPSA. I've never shot a steel match like this though so I couldn't help you on that. Here is the link for directions to Shongum, if you choose to go, i'll be there for that one.My link

I think the USPSA match would be better than the steel. Steel is much harder since it is a smaller target and misses are apparent. The only downsize is Tenafly doesn't have a good safety briefing (and it's not because I don't do it). Tenafly is more informal and smaller. They just don't have anyone to do the safety briefing. But the steel match was fun and great practice. Because targets don't have to be taped, it goes quickly.
