First time Shooting after almost 10 years

Welcome from MN, and from the guy that’s contributed greatly to the HK infection on this board.

Gratuitous Heckler & Koch SP89 pic, just because.

And how does a "new shooter" do that on their first time out or their first time in decades even touching a firearm?

Again, something in the milk is not clean

I can empathize with Ms. Jen. We had guns in the house when I was a kid, hunting, skeet shooting, etc. I moved out at 18, got busy with life, and had other priorities. A few decades later, I got back into target sports and self defense. After five years of regular training and practice, I still consider myself a new shooter.


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

Where is it in her post about the distance/range she shot at? Maybe for someone shooting brand new, the target is at a closer range to start at. And where are all the links in the stories you like to post?

The thought of dirty milk??? Is unsettling lol

And better believe it :) tbh I don’t really know how I did it either. Like I said in the original, I legit had tears rolling down my face the first couple rounds. I had to step out of the lane twice and legit shake out the jitters because I was about to full on panic.

But I got through it!! :) tbh I think it’s more of a testament to a great beginner friendly pistol than it is to any level of skill I had at the time. Now my goal is to make sure it wasn’t a fluke and keep going
 
To appease the curious, the target in my photo was at 15 yards for a while then moved back.

It was shot at that distance because that’s where the rest of the lanes had their targets as well and (as I said before) I was nervous and didn’t have the hairy lady balls that some of you have and just wanted to focus on calming myself down.

In the future, I will endeavor to post more targets with more tangible evidence than a happy little selfie.

For the record, THIS was my first shot. I circled it in black. And yes that is the same exact target from the original post :)

Happy little selfies are more than adequate. ;)
