Back Touching Chair Starts


Recommended Posts

Locally, we started using one of the 'school lunchroom' type chairs (metal frame with solid plastic seat). Instead of using the term 'back against chair' we modified it to say "back and or magazines against back of chair". I have noticed far fewer equipment related malfunctions and complaints since doing it this way.

Personally, I find the laying on table starts far more uncomfortable than chair starts....

Just FWIW, two of the chair starts at the Nats were set up so that you were sitting on the chair backwards, facing downrange. The third was "knees below table", so no "back on backrest" stipulation. Seemed to work out Ok, although an accident trying to get out of one of the "sitting backwards on chair" ones could result in a painful injury ;)
