Shot the Texas State IDPA Championship this past weekend and it was a GREAT time!!! I got to shoot with some great folks, met some new friends and brought home my first trophy from a sanctioned match.

Congrats and check with Randy, I think I got a shot of you accepting the trophy on his camera. I don't remember cause it kept shutting off on me waiting to take pictures.
