Yes Sir. 64, BTW.
Incremental Improvements
Improvement comes in increments, some small, some large. To turn a phrase from church, I’m not as good as I want to be, but I’m not as bad as I used to be.
Today’s training, with the Glock, was short, sweet, and profitable. I started off with a cold shot from 25 yards, which hit just below the orange dot, which is what I was aiming for. The shot to the lower left was also from 25 yards, the other day with the Windicator snub.

I then did some draws against the clock, from concealment. I set a par time of 2.5 seconds, and I was 7 yards from the 2/3 IPSC torso target. (Baby steps).
My first draw was flubbed. No shot.
Then I did a 2.22. After another in the 2’s, (2.44) I decided that I was taking more time than I needed to align the sights (I was trying to get a 'perfect' sight picture). After that, I dropped into the mid 1.7’s. And then, it all came together for this one:

After that, I did another 1.56, then missed with my last round.
Then I went out to 15 yards and hit the steel with the Cobra. I then went in to about 7 yards, and did pocket draw, move and shoot with the Cobra for the remaining 5 rounds.
I’m mad about the miss, but I’m very happy with the 1.5’s from concealment. I’m not @Mike1956 fast, but I am getting better.
(I will add that) This result isn’t just because of live fire at the range. Much of it I attribute to draw/dryfire with a roped pistol in my living room.

Today fared slightly better. First was 2.02, but after that, the rest were in the 1.6's, with this exception.
They were pretty good hits, too. The one just below and to the left of the orange dot was my 25 yard shot. All the rest are the timed shots.
I'll probably move out farther next time.
