| Anyone interested in a defensive pistol class during the first week of November in Springwater, NY. The class would be taught by Chris Fry/M.D.T.S. I'm trying to gauge interest to see if we can get enough people together to make it happen. |

i was just checking out chris's website and they have the NOV6th class listed on there. are we supposed to enroll through his site or is this class going through you? Everything is done through Chris, do not enroll yet. I don't think you can actually enroll right now on his site but the info is there though. Enrollment should open up sometime early to mid next week after I speak to the club and get the OK. Based on the interest in this class I'm guessing it's going to fill up pretty quick!

Anyone have the street address for the range? There are a couple of different ranges listed in google maps for springwater area. 8355 Hudson Rd. Springwater, New York 14572 It's about the only thing in town so it's pretty easy to find. If you're coming from the North you will go past a small gas station on your right hand side, the club is about a mile down the road on the left side. Anyone going to the class have 500 rounds of 9mm they want to sell? Here's a brief map once your in Springwater, the yellow dot @ the top left of the image is the gas station on 15-A once you enter the village, the yellow image at the bottom right of the picture is the club.

I agree with Rich, the range is clearly marked from the main road (15) and is pretty easy to find.
Looks like it may be a little cold on Saturday so make sure you bring plenty of snacks, water and possibly gloves/weather appropriate cover garments. See you guys Sat! |

Chris always includes cover garments in the safety brief but I figured it wouldn't hurt to give you guys a heads up. Most jackets have a draw string of some sort around the waist and these WILL find their way into your holster, quite possibly the trigger guard as well. If you don't like the idea of cutting the draw string on an expensive jacket, tape is a good substitute. Tom |

Tom The weather forecast for Saturday is a high of 32 and a low of 26 with snow showers expected. It's going to be a cold one! |

Saturday: A chance of snow showers before 2pm, then a chance of rain showers. Cloudy, with a high near 39. Northwest wind between 5 and 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 50%. New snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible.
Motivated training, cold and wet is the only way to train |
If you do have it let me know and I'll cover the cost of shipping yours back to you and mine back to me.

I was basing it on the avatar pic, it's kind of hard to tell with the mask on! Did he wear the mask at the class? If so that would be the awesomes |
You guys are killing me . I've been meaning to change the avatar, I hope Mike C got some good photos on Saturday. Cmon Mike, papa needs a new avatar!!
Almost forgot: This needs to be mentioned! Congrats to Jason for a 49 yard, double action shot in the "Walk Back" drill  We actually ran out of room on the range before we could watch him fail.
