Don't know about burned out, but there are TWO very interested fellows right here who are very anxious to get their black badges. We are members of several clubs in the GTA... so far we seem to be missing every course offered (we put our names on the list but never get a call). This is a father/son team and my son would have been available for the course in Waterloo at the end of May but it is full (6 students). Now we are going to have to wait until mid to late August as son is away at CFB Borden for the summer. Ah well. Hopefully there will be a course offering either during the latter half of August somewhere.
I am guessing that there is a lot more interest than courses and it is just a matter of getting aspiring IPSC'ers together with Black Badge courses so we can get started before we find something else to occupy our interest.
As a matter of interest we are both multi year handgun shooters with several thousand rounds fired each. We have both taken a multitude of handgun courses including the handgun courses to qualify for concealed carry in several states (that is several state licenses... good in about 40 states. Son is too young yet of course but took the courses with me nontheless). I got the permits and he did not.
We are also prepared to travel some distance In Ontario in order to take the course. No problem. And last but not least, we have been set up with all the gear needed for a long time now... I am afraid it is going to start rusting!
Anyone else in southern Ontario looking for a Black Badge course? Anyone out there giving a BB course at the end of the month or after August 15? Here are two anxious smiley customers!
