Hi folks. I've been shooting for my whole life, however recently became interested in doing some training. I got my NRA Pistol / RSO last year but am having some trouble with some logistical issues getting started. I already know that there isn't any money to be had, but want to do this more for the enjoyment and really like to introduce new people to shooting sports.
1) how to you find locations to have these classes? You obviously have to book in advance and if you don't get enough interest, I'm sure you can end up completely negative with renting some type of room for a whole day.
2) if you post a class to the NRA website, does that actually get looked at by people so you can fill up a class?
3) Even if you do fill up a class, if I remember right the proper ratio of student to instructor is something like 2? How can this work unless you know a bunch of instructors?
4) The basic course includes some range time. How do you manage that? If the second part of the class is actual shooting, then you almost have to have the entire class at a range, and what public range is going to even bother with that?
I might be over thinking here, but I just don't know how to get started.
