Hoffners FOF shoot house review
Posted: Thu Nov 05, 2009 7:17 am
I only made the second day, it was at the Cypress Creek indoor shoot/fire house. The structure was a three bedroom two story with den ,kitchen hallways just like a real house. If you have not trained in this scenario then I suggest you do. Things happen much faster, and a good chance of getting shot. We worked on hostage and active shooter scenarios with mostly two man entries, but one man scenarios can be applied. We also worked on flashlight usage in the home and a couple of really good concepts came forth.
We also did a school scenario, this is really scary because in a panic the shooter can be lost amongst the group of children as a teacher while evacuating. Hallway intersection are hard to cover and you become tunnel visioned very quick especially when guns are going off and you have to find the shooter. Of course in schools you have much larger hallways but never the less distance is close.
We had close circuit TV with cameras all over and could review the scenarios.
Our host Richard Leider and the folks at Cypress creek FD are great
BTW the way this house is set up with fog machines and remote lighting control.
