Classifier Cheat Sheet

[FTDR]

can anyone provide a link or post the file on the classifier, it is a breakdown of the rule book, but fits on one sheet of paper

thanks

Pages 67-68 of the rule book summarize the classifier.

The score sheet is posted but it does not say what to do, just has blanks for all the strings and stages.

I think what you're looking for is here: http://www.idpa.com/classify1.asp

Or maybe this, which is a PDF document (well doh).

Bruce,

Nice PDF of the classifier. Everything on one page. I'll make a copy and laminate it. It'll beat having to carry the rulebook around.

I have a question about Stage 3, String 2.

I recently shot the IDPA classifier out of curiosity....(Sure enough, the last stage did get me, and pushed me from a Master pace --> Expert).

Anyway, I was told you had to run up to the barrel, then kneel and shoot around it. It does not say anything about kneeling.

In String 3, however, the rule book expressly states the shooter must kneel, so I'm surprised it's not spelled out in String 2.

Thx

[Jim Watson]

Well, me too.

But if you didn't kneel in String 2 then you would be shooting over the barrel instead of around it, wouldn't you?

[boo radley]

Well, me too.

But if you didn't kneel in String 2 then you would be shooting over the barrel instead of around it, wouldn't you?

I'm not trying to be pedantic, but then...why have the explicit instruction to "kneel" in the last String, if it's that obvious?

I could still shoot around it, even if I were standing. Even kneeling I'm tall enough -- and I'll bet most people are, too -- that I'm still shooting over the height of the barrel, while I shoot around it, if that makes sense.

Just curious. I guess, really, you could go prone if you wanted on this String (not that I'd see why).

No problem, I'm not really sure which forum I got that from.

Low cover (which a barrel is) requires you to have at least one knee on the ground. Around means around, not over the top, unless otherwise specified.
