We have ample amounts of technical discussion in this section. But, where's the performance dialogue?

What are your goals for 2014 as a shooter? Go 25/25 on the clays? 1000 yard cold-bore hit? Dedicate time to fundamentals in one discipline? I'm sure there's a variety out there.

My only real goal is to at least have my A card in USPSA before 2015, though I'll be aiming for Master (no pun intended). Sadly, I've wasted the past month and really need to get in gear again.

The only other goal, albeit far less important, is to [re]develop my shotgun skills. This will mean some clays, and working on my loading technique.

This is incorrect. In order to need ammo, a shooter first needs a gun!

So that's my goal in 2014. Shoot a bunch of stuff and finally get around to buying a gun this year.

My goal is to hold on to our rights...
This.

And also, I'm going hunting for the first time. To be successful it will require a cold bore shot from 200+ ish yards. I should be fine, but I haven't really shot much since 9th grade rifle club. (We had a rifle range in the basement of our Junior High Building). I plan to practice enough and like I said it shouldn't be a problem, but that is my goal!!

My goal is to attend an appleseed event this year, come hell or high water!
I applaud your decision! If you have any questions at all about an apple seed event just PM me.
Buzz, I think this also needs to be on my summer hit list. Hopefully I can work it out to attend one that you will be at as well! 😆

My goal is complete vanity: I want visible abs. I'm probably 10-15 lbs of fat away. (Also made a deal with my wife that if I don't make it to my goal she gets facial hair control, she doesn't like the longer beard)

Hope so too. I'll keep you posted on the local shoots as they come on the schedule.

I suppose a goal I can add for this year is, seeing as it's been many years.. making sure to get out and practice my pistol marksmanship.

Glad to see I'm not alone in the action sports. Planning on making a run at the podium for any of the nationals?

I am still a C class in Single stack so i hope to place well at Nationals. For Multigun I try to place better than the previous years. Last USPSA Multigun I placed in top 20 in open division so im planning to improve there.
