Slight drift.... years ago when I was just starting to shoot the Bulls-eye matches here, I was always anxious to see improvement. One night, we started the match, 25 yards, centerfire, slow fire as usual. The first round went straight to the middle of the ten ring. The second hit right next to it, as did the third. I'm thinking to myself, "Wow, this is wonderful, and so easy! Whatever I am doing sure is working." The next rounds were as good, but then I noticed that while I was inspecting my shots, another hole appeared! This was disturbing, and raised questions in my mind.

Sure enough, I had my spotting scope on the next lane's target! All my great shooting disappeared as the scope was adjusted to MY target! I was close but not all ten rings!

:iagree: I understand all to well.. :cryin

Re: CHL Renewals Lack of Practice..

I would like to add that MOST of the renewals that come through are good to go....the ones that are not ready seem to come in clusters..like last week.. :willynilly:

CHL Renewals Lack of Practice..

Why is it someone goes to the trouble of acquiring a CHL and does not practice but once every five years?

Really? :shock:

Seriously? :shock:

Thumbs behind the slide, two handed-swap from hand to hand loading technique, Horatio Caine's famous wind-up presentation, WOW my gun has a manual safety?, lets point our gun at the concrete ceiling, lets rack the slide until we create a double feed etc...etc...

I know this sounds far fetched but what would happen if we really had to use that gun in self-defense?

Just call me crazy...
