Competition shooting (USPSA/IDPA), hiking, backpacking.
And taking CE courses (if that counts a hobby ;))

What division? I shot USPSA for 10 years before work and kids put a halt to it. My brother ended up as a pro 3gunner.

Hobbies now are fishing, horses, and running the kids around. One day I'll get back into hunting and shooting, and I'm trying my hand at some woodworking and carpentry too.

I'd say it does, for me too, at least. It's one thing to take the amount required. Another to take a couple extra to be in the safe zone for CE requirements, or take a few extra because the topics might be interesting. A whole different thing to take as many classes as you can afford. I'm in the latter category.

I'm in the latter as well. Which is nice that my hospital and company provide a lot of free options lol

Riding and maintaining my old motorcycle ('75 BMW), rock climbing, Aikido, hiking, and brewing beer. All except rock climbing are on hold until I finish up here in the desert. I can't wait to be able to get back to them.

Awesome! I climb as well! What do you means by "desert?" We talking Joshua Tree area by chance??

Photography, hiking, video games, occasionally studying outside work. Photography has been what I've been doing the most of recently!

I love fishing. I like four wheeling or just being up in the mountains, I really want to start getting into dirt bike riding, I also like camping. So I pretty much love just being outdoors in the woods/mountains, or just fishing some where.

No, I live in Saudi Arabia right now. That kind of desert. No place for Aikido as far as I've been able to find. We have an indoor rock wall on my compound that's not bad, but it's run by the school and they're not keen on us using it. My motorcycle is at my parents house in Massachusetts. The brewing beer part just doesn't happen here either, alcohol is illegal in this country :(

I only shoot production at the moment. But might expend in the future when I have resources.
