Yesterday's match was at Seaford. I fired three relays posting scores of 459-15X, 462-16X and 462-26X out of a possible 480-48X. The pair of 462s brought my high average up to 462.33 points. The left side barricade is still my weakest point!

At least one competitor wore wearing fingerless gloves during the match before last. Do you think it might be easier if you wore gloves and could subconsciously forget about your nuckles being busted and splintered on the baracade board?

Or is that to "gamey" for a duty competition?

I have never had a problem with my hands getting hurt on the barricade, not even a scratch.

Thats good. I was just wondering because of the recoil and the splinters and such.

Seems like something a person taking blood thinner meds would do to keep from getting those nasty under the skin blood bruises or making a mess with a slow to clot knick.

I also wear fingerless gloves for shooting... in the winter.

Today's match was at Sudlersville. My three relays posted scores of 457-18X, 458-19X and 466-23X out of a possible maximum of 480-48X. The 466-23X really boosted my high average up to 463.66 points. This puts me at 96.59%! Although I practice the barricade stage it continues to be my Achilles heel!
