It’s Steel Challenge time! I had to make a last-minute change to my schedule this month. All you parents out there know that when you have kids, everything changes! I had hoped to attend the super fun Pro Am Championships in Tulsa, OK, but I could only be away Saturday and Sunday. Fortunately for me, […]
June was another busy month! I shot my third International Confederation of Revolver Enthusiasts (ICORE) match. Last year I took the plunge and shot the ICORE Southern Regional to get familiar with the game before I competed at the International Revolver Championships (IRC). I fell in love with the sport and challenge of shooting a […]
I love the Bianchi Cup! I fell in love with this match from the moment I took my first shots in US Army black and gold. It challenges and humbles me. It teaches me something new every time I compete. In action shooting sports, it is the one event on the circuit where the results […]
It is difficult to put into words what it means to me to win my 10th USPSA Ladies National Title. Returning to the match circuit last year after taking time off to have my daughter, I tried not to put too much pressure on myself to win. My goal was to give my best and […]

The show attracted an all-time high of 31,280 buyers, and the 1,804 media professionals attending […]
Things have been crazy as usual since getting back from the USPSA Back-to-Back Nationals and the IDPA Nationals last month. I have wanted to write about my IDPA experience, but am only now getting the chance. I had a great time at the match. I can’t think of a better way to get back into […]
The dust has settled from the USPSA Back-to-Back Handgun Nationals – literally! The matches were held at the Desert Sportsmen facility in Las Vegas, NV. The range is truly impressive, but even more so are the people who made it all happen. The range officers and staff endured full days in the hot, dusty desert […]
