Dave Shoots USPSA at Southern Chester – June 2012

This is the third of four posts featuring Team Custom Gun FinishesOpens in a new tab. shooting USPSA at Southern Chester Sportsman’s and Farmers’ Association. So far we have seen Rich, Scott, and now Dave. My video will follow this post in a day or two.

Like myself, although not to the same extreme as I am, Dave is critical about his shooting. If he doesn’t do as well as he thinks he should, it is clearly written on his face. He seems to take the game of USPSA seriously and does a great job of breaking down stages for his skill-set.

Dave is a D Class Production Division shooter that seems to be getting better with each match shot. As of this writing, he is less than 5% points from breaking into C Class. With a couple more solid classifiers stages under his belt, I think he might be shooting in C Class by the end of the season.

Since I don’t like to give shooting advice unless I’m asked for it, I won’t mention that I think Dave should grip the gun higher and work on pressing the magazine release button with his strong hand (using his support hand seems to waste valuable time and the empty magazine is on the ground before his support hand grasps the new one). 😉

Walt

My name is Walt White and I've been riding motorcycles on and off since my early twenties. After more than a decade away from the sport, I came back - and I've been making up for lost time ever since. Based in Southeast Pennsylvania, I write and create videos about real motorcycle ownership: the bikes I ride, the gear I test, the roads I explore, and the community I've found along the way. I ride a 2022 Yamaha MT-09 SP and a 2023 Kawasaki Ninja 400, and I try to give you the honest take you'd get from a friend rather than a press release. I'm also a husband, dad to three girls, and a pitbull owner - which keeps life interesting off the bike too.
