One of the biggest problems out there is even if you find someone doing something blatantly wrong or even a simple educational opportunity there is little to no follow up through the Board. Examples being the occasional individual that sets up steel of the 600, 700, or 800 yard firing position and than proceeds to blast away at it from the 1000 yard firing position thinking "their steel is in the impact area" Some of them just can not get it through their head that their steel is placed on a firing position and not an acceptable impact area behind the target area. When the light bulb goes off that they can put the steel at the backstop and set up on the 200, 300 400 yard firing positions it really is sad to watch the clock in their head turn. Yet in these situations there is no penalty involved. Board ask after you provide names license plates, and video or photo proof........ "did you tell them", "did you stop them", well then thats that. While there are rules in place CRC must implement some way of actual follow up and enforcement penalty or its all just hot air. Hell I was talking to one of the board members tonight and he was shocked to learn (as he put it) that there was no actual language in the rules as relates to where to place steel out there. We would all hope that people would understand and common sense would dictate it be placed at the berm but there is no actual language written to that affect.
Thats the hard part of it for me is the fact that I am so vocal about not wanting "certifications" but understand the difficulties of managing the range and the rules required.
