What do you need for qualifications to be a Safety Officer? Besides this Seminar of course....is anyone eligible to be a Safety Officer?

 

[MAShooter]

You need to be a current IDPA member, and have passed the seminar.

Thanks,

There is a Comfort Inn, and a Residence inn in dartmouth, and both are right off of the highway, close to restaurants, and the mall, and about 10 minutes from the club.

A big thanks to Dave and John for running this. I learned a lot.

FYI: If you ever need to drive from Westford to the Rod and Gun Club of New Bedford don't trust your TomTom. It will take you on scenic ride on a "road" around a reservoir.

Oh man- the first time I was going there was a MA State IDPA match and I did the same thing!!! Good thing I was planning on getting there REAL early. I was lost for almost an hour.

Thanks Dave and John.

The professionalism of this class was top notch, Dave and John are extremely knowledgeable, and did not miss a beat.

The most enjoyable part of the day was the range exercise when Dave on purpose shot a stage 100% incorrectly, the SO's in training had to figure out what he did wrong in 4.88seconds with 14 shots on 3 targets, as well as questions not only on his shooting but his hits as well!! I could have not asked for better instructors.
Thanks guys

I had a blast and thoroughly enjoyed this class. IIRC it was 3 PEs and a FTDR which is a lot to catch from a Master class shooter in just under 5 sec.

 

[Lugnut]

An FTDR is nastly and rarely happens~ what did he do

 

[Buzzards Bay Tactical]

Intentionally loaded to over division capacity to avoid a reload.

and shot way to fast!!!!!

Shooting fast and accurate is the name of the game......

Thanks guys, I enjoyed doing the class as well... Lugnut - he shot so fast he scared the CRAP out of me! If I recall it was a CoF with both tactical sequence and tactical priority and he just fired a lot of rounds in a hurry deliberately firing extra shots, out of order, not loaded to division capacity, etc...
