And don’t come back until Sunday!
Right now, the weather for the IDPA State Championship is looking like rain and mid 60’s on Friday…which is when the match staff gets to shoot. Saturday, for the actual main match shooters is looking like about the same, but sans rain. So if you’re coming on Friday to Atlanta Conservation Club to watch, bring an umbrella. Bring one on Saturday as well, but you might not need it!
The great thing about IDPA is that I actually encourage shooting in the rain. Like I said a couple of days ago – if you get into a gunfight, you don’t know what the weather’s going to be like, so better practice keeping your footing, moving, and reloading in mud and the rain with as much control as possible. And what better way to do that than to shoot IDPA?
“Rain, rain, go away
Come again another day!
I need to shoot, train, and get as fast as I can,
Because the next bum might be a Starbucks fan!”
