I wanted to personally thank You, Rick, Garry, and Kay for teaching the class. If you could let the others know that I Thank them all for being patient with me. You guys were very helpful in the class as well as on the offsite location. I was very nervous on the field. I felt very ignorant and I expected more out of myself. I really appreciated the guidance and support. I was not sure of myself in what I was doing. And I was feeling embarrassed when I messed up and wasn't doing things correctly. I hate when I don't get things right. And this is not the kind of thing I want to mess up.

I get the impression that women tend to want to stay clear of this sort of thing, but as a woman myself, you got to ask yourself 'Woman to Woman', "If you had the chance to become EDUCATED about something like this, having this information can only Help You, NOT HURT YOU!" And getting the information from 'Professional Instructors' and not just hearsay from various individuals is the smartest way to go.


In this crazy world we live in, we can't depend, expect, or assume others know what they are doing, and this world is only going to get more unpredictable. And if there ever was a question in my mind that I could have protected a loved one, (my husband, children, or any other family member) from harm, and I didn't because I was not informed or too scared to learn, I personally, couldn't live with the regret that "I" could have prevented the worst from happening, and I just chose not to. It's not about being selfish here, it's about being the best person I can be!

Bottom Line, it's a choice you have to make, to want to learn. Think it over. Be Educated. This is a LAST Resort kind of thing. No one says you will EVER have to do this in your lifetime, but what if?

- What if you needed to know and chose not to at least learn, and something happened... Could you live with the regret?

To Kay: Thanks for taking the time with me, you were very kind and thoughtful. You were so sweet to me, you were like the mother I wished I had. Thank You!

Thanks Again and Take Care,

Gracie

Cool.

So did she leave with a sense of confidence or the feeling that she needs more range time?

She was confident when she left and More so we were confident with her. This young Woman came with her husband and shot in different relays (which in most cases they dont feel comfortable doing this). Her open mind and positive outlook made her a dream to teach. She caught on to everything the first time Garry (you know him as UTPD#5) is the best Instructor I have seen yet. His patience with new shooters, Kids and his vast knowledge about shooting technics help him get on the students level and bring them up fast. KayL helped bring the womans insite to her and made it all comforting with the lady folk in this last class. Being her (KayL's)first official NRA instruction did a wonderful job and seeing that everything was takin into consideration for the lady folk. Gracie signed up for the July next step class right away with her husband almost holding her back. When she left they were talking about going shopping for a firearm of her own. I have to say I am blessed to have the fortune of the team that came together under MiCPL.net. We came together with one mission "To Provide the best possible instruction at a great value to the student"

My Dad doesn't live too far from you and was at your course prior to renewing (which I told him was not necessary but....he is thick headed) and spoke with you. He was also impressed with some lady that was blasting away with a couple of different pistols (was that Kay?)

If I get my wife to take a class....what you folks have to offer sounds like the right one for her. I am glad to hear that your instruction is getting good reviews.

But about that A Team quote....man...I have been using that for years....and I can just picture George Peppard smiling and puffing on that cigar when he said it.:thumbup:

That was your dad?!!!! No kidding. Yup, I spoke with him. A charming gentleman. I wish we knew everyone's connections when we speak to someone. He showed up for the range part and we talked for a bit. I wasn't the one shooting, only acting as an RO. I'm the gray haired chicky-babe. He must have been impressed with the young woman chicky-babe who wrote this item. I'm humbled by her kind words.

Ahh that was your Dad huh. I told himthe same thing he didnt have to pay anyone for renewal just bone up on the laws and trigger time. It sounds to me he does alot of trigger time. Nice fellow indeed I hate it when instructors push the renewal routine they are nothing but scam artists and crooks.

Trigger time is easy when you have a range behind your house like we both do. But, I wouldn't say he gets alot of trigger time but....doesn't have any excuses for not getting it either.

Heck, I shoot way more than he does and I wouldn't say that I get alot of time but...as long as my bullets go where they are supposed to when I do go out back, I suppose that I get enough to get by.

Honestly though, I had no clue where he was going. In fact, I thought that I had him talked out of it because I was able to prove to him that somebody had blown smoke up his ash. Obviously, he decided to go check it out. He was impressed.

Small world eh?;-)
