Re: Recommended First Aid training
BLS is a good course -- for what it is. It doesn't really get into traumatic wound care (stopping the bleeding) or dealing with sucking chest wounds. For shooting sports activities you may want to pursue a course designed to address these topics. In our county, the Montgomery County Hospital District conducts a shooting sports wound care class and it is free. This is a reasonably basic class with a lot of good information -- particularly for the price. I have also attended two other more extensive training sessions with other providers and got more hands-on experience in them.
