[QUOTE="Veritas, post: 4190528, member: 55012"] Since shooting and in particular, taking classes is one of my favorite things I love to travel to train anytime I get away by myself (i.e. without kids and family). There are a few instructors I like and trust not to put out garbage so spending a weekend in a new place learning from them is awesome, especially if I have friends in that state or city I can stay with or visit (or take the class with). Pro-tip: Have your ammo mailed directly to your friend in town or the instructor if flying. 500-1,000 rounds is too much for checked luggage but the 100-200 rounds left can fly home. Often, I'll drive so that I can have my truck and bring all my gear like backup guns (it sucks to be 500+ miles from home and have the gun you wanted to use for a 2-day class go down hard) plus different battle belts or chest rigs for pistol day versus carbine day etc. There have been a few times I've been able to get away and do some clay shooting with a range rental while with the family. Heck if guys whose whole personality consists of golfing can squeeze in golf on their vacation why can't we get some shooting in? [/QUOTE]
