Your goals should be to compete, even if it's just against yourself, to be safe, and to have fun. Regulars at shoots have seen it all in terms of competitors’ skill levels; the only way to embarrass yourself is to be a sore loser or an unsafe shooter. Most competitions are divided by classes to cater for all skill levels, and you can rest assured that the vast majority of competitors are hobbyists, just like you.
Target shooting has been described as skilled meditation; you have to focus completely on what you’re doing. If your brain goes off and meanders then your bullets will probably do the same!
Dedicated to the peaceful pursuit of marksmanship
