Will be at the trap range this Sunday from about 10am to 2 pm. Come on over!

Went to the rifle side yesterday and since I have a lower slipped disc, the bench was damn uncomfortable.  Anyone with back issues bring some kind of cushion or pad to sit on at KHSC?

A quality 2 layer memory foam coccyx cushion should ease the discomfort. I know a lot of older or bony assed shooters that use them to relieve tailbone pressure.

Mahalo.  Other than the disc problem, I probably qualify for having a bony ass, LOL.

I have some pretty bad back issues as well. But I am sorry I cannot help you with your question regarding a cushion. You see my cushion is built in. 

One of our members does bring a cushion that is about 2" thick with high density foam.

you might want to try standing up more frequently too
bulging/herniated disc usually don't like prolonged flexion positions such as sitting.

All kidding aside, I used to have terrible back pains when I was 20 something.
My co-worker told me to take calcium supplements. I looked at the RDA for calcium in your diet and was shocked to find out how much is recommended.
It's a lot....it makes so much sense because your spine is bone, and calcium makes up your bones.

Ever since I started taking the calcium supplements, I have not had any back pain problem. It's been 40 years now.
Don't try consuming more dairy products, you would need to drown yourself in milk and cheese to meet the RDA.

I shoot standing a lot these days. Getting pretty good for an OF I mean an Old Inspector.

Especially if you are lactose intolerant. The guys down wind from you wouldn't appreciate it.

Yes, we don't want to mandate ear, eye, AND nose protection do we?

Yeah I could use some padding in the rear, maybe sitting on that 2X8 board would feel better.  Never noticed it till I started getting back pain.   I just got some plain foam from CityMill.   Thinking of making something portable  that can fit over the  2X8 and glue or Velcro the foam to a 3/4" plywood seat.  In the meantime till I get measurements, also bought this cheap foam cushion from Ross.

I normally set up my spotting scope so I can see sitting down with the eyepiece at the 3 or 9 position.  Since its angled, I'll try to set up so I need to stand and look down in the eyepiece to prevent too much sitting on that board.

Why not setup your spotter like this?


Less head movement

At the handgun range. Pretty crowded. Only a handful of open spots.

I'll set it up like that if I shoot prone.
