Think of this course as the “finishing school” for the well-prepared gunman. This is an intermediate to advanced shooting class which focuses on subjects not covered in typical shooting classes.
Typically, we only worry about speed and accuracy.This class adds decision making to the equation. A major goal is to place the shooter under increasing amounts of “cognitive load” and see how well learned their skills really are. Almost every shot will be fired based on a visual start signal, as opposed to the traditional beep of a range timer, and most shots will have an element of decision making associated with them.
A major teaching tool in this process is the use of tactical anatomy. Tactical anatomy teaches the shooter how to place the most effective fight stopping hits under the reality of three-dimensional targets. The class will feature anatomically correct, three-dimensional targets that must be engaged correctly and under realistic time limits.
The two-day version of this class features new drills and emphasizes traditional square range drills that force the shooter to think with the pistol in the hand. Other topics include how to engage moving targets and includes the use of moving steel targets. This class will include the use of three-dimensional shooting scenarios with both moving and stationary targets to replicate complex, real-world problems.
Pre-Requisites:
THIS IS NOT A BASIC CLASS. Students need to already be competent and safe gunhandlers. They must be able to load/unload, present/reholster safely, perform reloads, reduce malfunctions, etc. If you have any doubts about whether you meet these standards, please contact us at
aW5mbyB8IHR3b3BpbGxhcnN0cmFpbmluZyAhIGNvbQ==.
While anyone capable of safely running their handgun will benefit from the class, the most benefit will be achieved by those who can already shoot well. Since accurate shooting will be emphasized – the ability to place 5 rounds in a 5” circle from five yards in less than five seconds from concealment is the recommended standard.
Round Count:
Minimum round count is ~600 rounds. Some portions of the course allow for extra shooting based on the student’s interest, ability, and ammunition availability. Up to 650 rounds could be fired in the course but are not required.
Range Fees:
$60 cash due at signin
Equipment:
Students will need at least one reliable, zeroed pistol with at least three magazines as well as standard safety equipment (safety glasses, hearing protection, and a brimmed hat). Holsters must be high quality and non-collapsing. Appendix carry is welcome provided safe holstering practices are followed. While not required, a ready way to carry two spare magazines is strongly recommended.
