Had a blast (pun intended) at my second IDPA event, first of this season. It was cold and rainy and we had to keep fishing our empty magazines out of the mud but it was fun and we will definitely make the qualifier next month.
It's a great sport and a great time if you haven't tried it. Other than just being fun, it teaches you to move and shoot, use cover, and many other skills you will never learn at your regular range.
We also went trap shooting this morning. The snow was still on the ground but it was sunny and warm and I went 4/1/1 vs. my brother in law. I had to redeem myself because he smoked me at the IDPA.
