I have always believed that in one form or another. What does that mean? For a lot of people, their comfort exists because of many factors. They live in a low crime area, they work at a relatively safe job, etc. That means that their exposure to an incident is lower than someone that does not live or work in a safer than average place. I learned a long time ago the denial is a soft fuzzy blanket that we wrap ourselves in. That blanket provides no safety or security. Denial is an unsafe state of mind to exist in. Danger does exist. There are predators among us that will take every opportunity to do whatever it is they want, when they want, to whomever they want. All they need is the chance. We strive to train you to be aware, be prepared, and be able to be safe. You\u2019re safe until you\u2019re not. Think about it, then do something about it.

As part of my duties at Baldwinsville Rod &amp; Gun Club, I took RPD\u2019s range officer training and was immediately convinced this is where I would conduct my pistol training. What began as learning the basics of using the \u201ctool\u201d evolved into a mindset of more personal responsibility for my own safety and that of my family. Being accepted into and completing the Handgun Master Program in 2022 was a force multiplier for my learning experience and led me the opportunity to be an instructor.\nI learned as an IT instructor the best way to continually learn a subject is to teach it.

I became introduced to firearms in my late teens (a long time ago) when I started varmint hunting with two of my good friends and their father. Living in a rural community I progressed into a variety of hunting experiences and established wonderful friendships with many people of good moral and ethical standards. This lead myself into trying some handgun shooting sports in the mid 70\u2019s and I have been hooked ever since. As a young adult I quickly learned that not everyone I would come into contact with throughout my life held themselves to the same moral standards and would not hesitate to take advantage of me or my family if I allowed it. It was at this junction in life I started carrying concealed and increased my awareness of life situations that could bring danger my way and avoided them where ever possible.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementskit-single-testimonial-slider elementskit-testimonial-slider-block-style elementskit-testimonial-slider-block-style-three  elementor-repeater-item-ee5bba1\" href=\"\/rochester\/our-team\/greg-butch-mcdonald\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-bio client_center\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementkit-commentor-details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-image ekit-testimonial--avatar\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/rochester\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Greg-Butch-McDonald.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Greg (Butch) McDonald\" srcset=\"https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/rochester\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Greg-Butch-McDonald.png 300w, https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/rochester\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Greg-Butch-McDonald-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-profile-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<strong class=\"elementskit-author-name\">Greg (Butch) McDonald<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementskit-author-des\">Instructor<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Like many others my life with shooting began at my family hunting camp with my father, a .22 rifle, and some soda cans. While I have enjoyed all aspects of shooting since then, it was when I got my pistol permit that I found a true love and passion for shooting. My mindset about personal protection changed and I decided to become proactive with a sheepdog mentality.

My father was a collector and I had the chance to shoot a lot of really cool guns. In my later teens I got away from shooting and it came back up again when my wife wanted to get her pistol permit.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementskit-single-testimonial-slider elementskit-testimonial-slider-block-style elementskit-testimonial-slider-block-style-three  elementor-repeater-item-7dbc4b9\" href=\"\/rochester\/our-team\/wendy-saetta\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-bio client_center\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementkit-commentor-details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-image ekit-testimonial--avatar\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/rochester\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/wenday.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/rochester\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/wenday.png 300w, https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/rochester\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/wenday-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-profile-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<strong class=\"elementskit-author-name\">Wendy Saetta<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementskit-author-des\">Lead Instructor - Women's Training Division<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I was never involved with any type of defensive training or firearms training growing up. I was fortunate enough to become introduced to defensive shooting by my ex-husband, and we found a defensive pistol shoot, run by Dave and his father Stu, on Tuesday nights and attended as often as we could. I was immediately drawn to the format of this event, and I have been a Range Officer on Tuesday night now for three years. Once involved in the defensive pistol sports, I realized that you need more answers to life threatening situations than just a gun. So, with that thought, my interest in unarmed self defense increased as well.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-navigation-button
