This course is a collection of compass courses that members can shoot at will.  The included forms can be printed off and used in the field to record the results of taking the prescribed bearings.

Bearings are usually shot by lining up 2 objects in the field - a position object and a target object.  The bearing is the corrected grid bearing (magnetic bearing - grid convergence) for the area covered.  (In Midland, 9 deg West declination).

Please take the bearings, write them up on the sheets, and then turn them into a member of the training team.

And don't forget to explain to  anyone who asks what you're doing, why you're doing it, and who you're doing it for.

Have fun!
