In order to master anything, one must first master the fundamentals. This is a 4-hour course devoted to building upon your foundational marksmanship skills, while simultaneously introducing new methods. Whether you are running a pump-action or semi-automatic, by the end of the course you will have developed the CORE skills and techniques to efficiently manipulate, operate and run the gun – you will come with a desire to learn, you will leave confident.
We will teach you to identify problem areas and make immediate corrections to avoid engraining bad habits and improper techniques. You will train through ammunition management, emergency and deliberate reloads, identifying and overcoming common malfunctions, ready positions, speed shooting, and more.
