Since I am learning to shoot , all over again (I haven’t shot on a regular basis since I was a kid), I thought it might be a good idea to take classes. I have taken several from Colorado Shooting Sports and they are great! Fast paced, intense, and lots of fun to boot! By the end of each class, you come away with valuable experience, insights and a new appreciation for the freedoms we enjoy in this country.
The latest class I took was Tactical Medical. We learned basic first aid for major things that can kill you right now, and how to deal with them. The class was hands on, under stress and not only did we learn a lot, we all had fun. Everyone should have a basic course like this, and carry a basic Tactical Medical Kit. The life you save could be you own.
Oh, and one thing I learned real well – a properly applied tourniquet, really hurts. That means your doin’ it right.
