I love the reference to a "coachable" individual. Its amazing how many folks sign up for training,and all of a sudden know it all.

If it wasn't a 4 hour drive for me, I'd love to take the course.

4hours is a drive! I drive 2 hours to get there, then camp out until Sunday. It sure beats driving home every night.
We've had some that have flown in, then grabbed a room in town. And a handful that have joined us at the camp site, we windup talking guns all night...

It looks like we're down to the last TWO open slots in the March class.
Now is the time so sign up as a 2man team if you have a buddy you want to pair up with, if not we can set you up with one.
Hope to see you guys on the range!
