Short Course Ben Berry

This week I discuss the two-part March meeting of the USPSA Board of Directors, including the signs of progress being made, and the areas we are still pushing for improvements.

This week I discuss yesterday's meeting of the USPSA Board of Directors, including the vote not to livestream it, as well as my view on this being a setback but not a fatal one.

This week on the podcast, I recap the February 2024 USPSA Board of Directors meeting, and discuss why 22-28 round stages offer really interesting options when shooting with 15 rounds in the gun.

This week I discuss the current events in USPSA including the resignation of the Area 5 director and the surprise move to reincorporate in Alabama, as well as a main topic about whether changes in gear are actually worse, or just unexpected and different, leading the reviewer to reflexively dislike them.

This week I discuss the events around USPSA filing to register the "Hit Factor" trademark, the appointment of the interim Area 1 director, announce dates and information related to this year's Area 6 championship, and discuss how staff reset matches provide a place for folks interested in getting started volunteering.
