A couple weeks ago I took the USPSA range officer class with Ry and Barron. I got my grade back today. I passed with a 92 on my first try. Ry got a 88 and Barron got a 94. 85 is passing.
This means we will have officially certified (assuming the certification comes through in time) range officers at Boomershoot 2012.
I’m also an NRA RSO, so +1 on the official RSOs.
So, now are you guys not just certifiable, you are actually certified!
I tried to resist the straight lines (well, a little bit), but I couldn’t help myself.
@Rolf, so says the guy that coined “Entertainingly Close”. 😉
@Tango NRA is on the list of things I would like to add. It’s a matter of time and money right now. I have way too many hobbies but they’re all just too damn much fun!.
I will say I was surprised at the scores. I really expected Joe to beat me on that one, Ry too. Both of them have much faster CPUs than me, though Ry has been said to have a buggy operating system, but that’s usually not with stuff like this. Meh, I had to make up for Joe kickin’ my ass every match some how.
I think if I had taken the test somewhere quiet, I would have done better; I can tell, based on what I missed, that as Beth’s Cafe became more crowded, the quality of my work went down. On one of the questions, I completely misread it and didn’t even cite a rule – two points for what was an obvious answer (in hindsight); this, after I went through to re-read all the rules and make sure they applied.
@Tango, Excellent!
@Rolf, I’ve been certified in a number of different ways for a long time. And you have your own certifications as well…
