Show notes
USPSA's Jake Martens joins Ryan Gresham to break down everything a new shooter needs to know — from the nine divisions and what gear you already own that qualifies, to why Steel Challenge is the perfect on-ramp, how competition shaped the red dot revolution, and why showing up to your first match is a lot less scary than you think.
