Proves that you shouldn't think you know everything, and that everytime you shoot, it reminds us that basics really do win the day...

I look forward to the next one...

Yes it is! Of course, I'm going to steal it and use that in all future classes.

Thanks for the kind words and sorry for running late. We've never had the IPSC match run that late, so that was a delay we never expected. The guys who run the match apologized and said they had a lot of new shooters who took much longer than the regular folks. This happens to us also during the monthly IDPA matches, so I can sympathize.

Marc and I enjoyed the class also, but I'm going to give serious consideration to teaching much smaller classes so I can spend more time on the range with individuals, during the range portion of the class. Classes of 4 to 6 people can be held in the IDPA building giving us more flexibility on the calendar. It also will allow us to do more drills during the range portion of the class. I know Marc enjoys the smaller classes for the same reason, but since we had to cancel the last two classes due to rain and Rita, we really didn't want to have to put a cut-off on this one. Thank goodness we had a good group, since it was a large one!

Regards,
Chas.

Well, if I can ever get it all into one sock soon...

I have some business with Marc to take care of that particular issue soon... :wink:

The more NRA instructors you can get to assist, and be an extra pair of eyes and ears for you, I think the class sizes could be a moot point, to a certain extent...

Having 20 plus people fire off 6 rapid rounds (sighting down the frame) was pretty impressive wasn't it...

I heard you whoop up on that one... :lol:

The four of us had a great time - learned a lot and enjoyed it immensely. We are looking forward to the next class, which is going to fill up fast from the comments here!

Thanks, Marc and Charles.
