"when your back is killing you it is hard to concentrate on the trigger and sights"
Last year at the Quigley my back hurt so bad I was only interested in getting my 8 rds off so I could stand up. For the last year I have been getting out to the ranch at least twice a week for practice, and my back has gradually improved to the point I can sit for a total of 40 rds pain free. Moving around, trying different postions with my feet, and just generally getting used to doing the same thing every time has been the secret. Uh, I guess the secret is trigger time. I'm 72 and I'm leaving for Montana tuesday.
