Before you get to Academy, you better read the posts above. Since you shoot if F-Open at Raton, you will have to get SCUBA gear. Remember, canoes are for F-TR.
One week from today, the first shots for the Nationals will be going downrange. I'm looking forward to it.
I still remember last year when my very first shot, first sighter for the entire match, was a pinwheel X. I could only go down from there.
