Rangemaster DOTM for January. Yes I look even goofier than normal because it was cold and windy and I am a cold weather wimp. I did shoot a perfect score and made the par times though I was pretty slow with a parka and gloves on. @gregkl give it a try?

Cedartop, this is the target I'm currently using. Should I treat the center square as 4 points and put a 8" circle in it for 5 points ?

That sounds like it should work. How big is the square?

I'll have to measure it when I get home. The entire target measures 23" X 35".

It's a 6" square.

CT, just wanted you to know I haven't made it back to the range yet to run this drill. Last weekend kids and grandkids up, doing a brake job for my daughter, cooking, cleaning....where was my wife!

I may try this weekend but the weather looks to be fairly cold and my back's been jacked up lately. I can usually deal with one, either cold or back out of sorts, but the combo makes it tough.

If they were all from the ready position I know I could do it but low to mid 20's I'll have to wear gloves and a couple layers that I'll have to get through.

I'll keep you posted!

I ran the drill today with my Compact and my Shield. I had 3 misses with the compact and 4 with the compact. All misses were just outside of the bottom line of the square. But a miss is a miss.

I was happy with how I did. For most of the strings I was faster on the draw to first shot with the dot today. Which signals some improvement for me.

I was under the time limit on everything but slowing down to shoot it perfect will probably put me over. I had less than 0.5 seconds time left on the drills that I missed.

A good drill to incorporate into my training.
