CR Speed Ultra Belt

[Square Wheels]

So, yesterday products I ordered from CR Speed (a month ago) finally arrived!

Yes, I am new to shooting, but our range has practice USPSA courses.  I have had fun.

If I keep up with this, I plan to take the TFI Academy classes next year, and then start competing.

So, back to the belt.  Please understand I am very new to shooting (I already said that), and have never worn anything this cool before. 

I know I put the inner belt through my belt loops.  I suspect I fasten that in the front.

For the outer belt that has the holster and mag pouches, do I fasten that in the back?  It seems like that would make more sense.

Thank you for your replies and not laughing (at least out loud).

I've seen both ways front or back, It's just a preference. If you run a magnet in the front the belt closure may interfere.

Yes most people set it up to close in the back.  I use this belt keeper https://arredondoaccessories.com/belt-keeper/ instead of the cheesy one that usually comes with belts.  
 

I know Keith Tyler and he is good people.  If you are serious about USPSA, he will save you a ton of time and heartache by teaching the right way to do it.

I've heard this more than once.

As I said, I am new to shooting and am hooked.  I want to get better.  I watch a LOT of videos, but would prefer hands-on training, and his 7-month course seems pretty intense.

I was worried I would not be ready for such a program, or hold other people back, so I emailed him and let him know of the little training I've had.  He said he'd accept me into the program.  I am excited.

Don’t worry about holding anybody back.  Be safe and accurate and the rest will come.  

The tactical-bro types will tell you competitive shooting will teach you bad tactics and will just get you killed.  Ignore them - half those guys went to a match to teach everybody how it’s done and got their asses handed to them, primarily because they’re just not nearly as good as they thought.  USPSA, IDPA, etc are not defensive training, but they will quickly make you immensely more competent with a gun.  I think Massad Ayoob said shooting matches are not gunfights, but gunfights are shooting matches.
