I've been shooting for a while now, and I'd like to try some competitive shooting along the lines of IDPA or IPSC, or anything similar. I don't really know where to start, but I'm looking for a good place for a beginner. I've looked at TexasIDPA.com, but still don't really know where would be good to start.
I'd also like to find somewhere near where I live. I'm in the Medical Center area in Houston, and as far as I can tell the closest place that has this sort of stuff is at Top Gun, with
IDPS. Anyone have any experience with that? Any other recommendations?

We also shoot a multi-gun match the second Saturday of the month at the ImpactZone.

Greetings--
I've spen some time shooting with the three groups of folks@ the Top Gun range. IDPA- style on Sunday (4-6p) and TH evenings as well as with Greg Garrett on Tuesdays.
Fun folks--nice range.
I too work in the Med Center. I've been trying to slip out of work early and go out to the WHIDPA @ Impact Zone on Wed nights.

Let me recommend a visit to:
http://www.psc-range.com
The club hosts IDPA and USPSA competitions as well as a wide variety of other, fun matches: Trap Skeet, 5-stand. Silhouettes (small bore, big bore, handgun, rifle) Bowling Pins, Man-on-man steel, PPC, and so on.
All events are open to members and non-members alike. Lots of fun and excellent opportunities to both socialize and sharpen your skills.
Cheers,
Norm

Definitely try Thunder Tactical Shooters north of The Woodlands. We like getting new shooters started in IDPA. However any of the clubs in the Houston area are good. I like PSC. Great range.
