I was closing out my training log for the year after my range session today. It was a fairly quiet year from that standpoint. I shot 13,290 rounds of 9mm at actual range/practice sessions. I shot in about 20 IDPA matches with three of those being majors. At the Michigan State Championship I was able to win Sharpshooter Carry Optics and bump to Expert class. I also competed in my first NRA Action Pistol/Bianchi cup match. It was a lot of fun, and I plan to do it next year. Matches account for about looks another 2,700 rounds of 9mm. There were also a few 2 gun matches at my home club using small amounts of 9mm, .223, 22lr, and 12 gauge. Most rounds by far would be through my Walther Q5 SF followed by Staccato C2, Sig Legion X-carry, and Sig 365XL on the pistol front. BCM AR15 and S&W M&P 15-22 for rifles, and Beretta 1301T for shotgun.
That I recall I only took 2 training classes this year. A trauma medicine class from Spartan tactical and a pistol class from Lee Weems. Both were beneficial. It is nagging me that I feel like I am forgetting something from the class standpoint but it won't come to the surface.
What does 2023 look like? Well hopefully more and better practice. I plan to move to Master class in IDPA. Probably won't shoot more majors. As I mentioned I plan to shoot the Sunset Coast Regional NRA Action pistol match again this year. As far as training classes, two friends and I have a private class lined up for early spring with Bob Vogel. I hope to do a low light class and another good pistol class as well. Near daily dry fire will of course continue. I also plan to take on a little more coaching/tutoring at the local club this coming year. This is just the beginning and I am sure things will change/be added.
Who has anything memorable from the training standpoint from this year? Who has big plans for next year?
