Ok, I need some help and input.. I'm going to start a poll so we can get this underway.
I'm forwarding some info that was passed along to me today..
We need a range to hold the event on. Keep in mind, most "clubs" are not interested on having someone else come in and make money at their facility. That being said, we need a contact name and number directly related with a range who is willing to host such an event. Requirements are as follows: Range: room for 12 stands, 30 FT min for Combat Focus Shooting handgun, 50 FT Advanced Pistol Handling, 100 FT for Combat Focus Carbine. Combat Focus Carbine: Barricade/barrels of some type.
Classes may be taught by Rob Pincus OR, he has certified instructors he can send as well. Do we have a preference? Im not sure if the price is different if we choose someone other than Rob to teach it.
Here's where the poll will come in.. we need to narrow down exactly what class we want! Some of the classes are: Combat Focus Shooting, Advanced Pistol Handling, Combat Focus Carbine and Extreme Close Quarters Tactics. The Advanced Pistol Handling Class requires having taken the Combat Focus Shooting course or the one day Fundamentals of Combat Focus Shooting class in advance. You can check on the Combat Focus Shooting website (
http://combatfocusshooting.com/ ) or the I.C.E. Training web site (
http://www.icetraining.us/index.html ) for info on each course and any prerequisites. There are other classes as well listed there.
The student’s cost for class is $500 for Combat Focus Shooting, $600 for Advanced Pistol Handling, $500 for Extreme Close Quarter Tactics, and $600 for Combat Focus Carbine. All of these classes are 2 day classes. The Combat Focus Shooting Instructor Development class is 5 days and is $1500.00. There is a prerequisite for that class of having attended a Combat Focus Shooting class.
Class size: 12 people maximum unless approved by Rob Pincus. For a minimum number of students, there isn’t a set number, but usually if there are at least 4 or 5 students, the class will go on. This is subject to the instructor’s decision though.
Please let me know your feedback!! My impression is that Rob is already booking quickly for 2014 and we are most likely not looking at anything very soon.
