Man don't feel bad at all. I just moved to Rogers and I have not had any trigger time in over a month. I became fed up this past Saturday and found a range at Hobbs State Park just 14 miles from me. I just took my 1911 with me to see what the range is like. It had to be the busiest range I have ever been too, which was not too bad but I am use to shooting alone. There were a lot of factors that caused me to shoot lousy. No illness but I suppose there was a certian amount of stress. Between the stress of moving, trying to find a new job, all the noise, lack of trigger time, bad factory sights that I need to get fixed, new low profile bullets that would not feed, it looked like I was shooting a buckshot at 100yds. After the first 100rd or so I stopped trying and just started shooting and had fun. This was when I looked at the guys target next to me. All I could do was shake my head and laugh. I am a good shooter. I am not worried about what they think and they were not worried about it either. I was happy to be shooting, I met a couple of nice guys that visited the range all the time. I pick up around 150rds of .45acp brass and the guy that was shooting his 2 AR's gave me 200rds of .223 brass.
Yeah, it was a lousy day shooting but it was a good day at the range. My only regret was not getting the name of the two gentlemen that were there the entire time I was, but They both said that they visit the range all the time so I am sure I will see them again and I will get their names then.
