The target audience of the course is the safe and competent shooter, experienced law enforcement/military operator or USPSA/IDPA competitor who is looking to improve their speed, marksmanship and gun handling skills, and to learn the rules and best practices of the shooting sports. We will stress speed and accuracy while covering handgun manipulation skills that will enable the shooter to more effectively use their pistol. We will use time-tested and proven drills to increase your skills. The main focus will be on the improvement of handgun shooting and handling skills such as speed shooting, accuracy, efficient speed draws, reloads, sight tracking, transitions between targets, etc. We will also cover the different rules and scoring methods of USPSA and IDPA, as well as strategies to be more competitive.
Students will learn self-diagnostics to continue development of their own personal performance, how to practice and track one’s own skill level.
This is a great opportunity to become more proficient with your defensive pistol skills required to advance in competition and self-defense. At the end, students will be sent a set of drills along with time standards that they need to get to the next level.
