Im outside of San Antonio looking to learn more about getting into competition.

Right now I’m trying to learn from YouTube videos But thinking it may be good to see it in real life and ask questions.

It looks like there’s a few around in my area (river city, alpha mike). anyone from the area have opinions of either of them, or should I just try them both out?

Thanks!

Not from there but my advice is to just sign up go and shoot. Nobody cares about your score but you so don't be nervous. Just be safe. At my first match I had two goals: 1 Be safe, 2 Don't get a DQ. Getting the first one done is a big step. GO FOR IT BRO! Good luck and we are with you.

I shoot with both Alpha-Mike (USPSA) and Texas Tactical (IDPA) as well as the Bandera IDPA group on occasion. Depending on which part of town you're in, I'd suggest coming out to Cedar Ridge Range on the weekends and running with the Texas Tactical group if you're just getting started. They're a great group of guys and we welcome all new shooters. Go to www.cedarridgerange and click on the "Competition Clubs" tab to see schedules. All clubs normally have sign ups starting at 9 AM with hammer down at 10 AM. New shooters wanting to get in good with the club may consider showing up at 8 AM to help setup. It gives you a chance to meet the Match Directors and safety officers before everyone arrives. Feel free to DM me if you have any questions.
