Just wanted to let everyone know that I had a blast with this IDPA match hosted by WHIPDA. Garry and the gang are a great bunch of people willing to help the new guy get started. Maybe one day I will be able to actually compete on y'alls skill level, lol.

Thanks for a fun filled, learning experience that I will definately repeat again very soon.

Thanks for the update as I was wondering if the match was still a go since Saturdays was canceled.

What time should we get there if the match starts at 1 PM?

Hello Garry,

I am a fairly new pistol shooter and would like to give IDPA a try to hopefully enhance the much needed critical skills for concealed carry. With that being said, I was wondering if this match was open to first timers to embarrass themselves? Do I have to be a member of IDPA or WHIDPA to participate? I have a OWB holster and two mag pouches but not to sure what kind of cover is needed such as a vest or big shirt. I have been a rifle and shotgun shooter all my life but just picked up hand guns in the last six months. I am still not to sure about participating because my shooting ability is not that good yet and thats not even counting drawing from a holster and mag changes on the fly.

Thanks for your time
