Description

This is continuation of our Foudational Competition Skills. It’s for moving up the scoreboard and moving up in class. It is designed to increase handgun skills for self-defense or competitive shooting. The target audience of the course is the experienced competition or tactical shooter who is looking to improve their speed, marksmanship and gun handling skills, and to take a deeper dive into best practices of the shooting sports in order to be more competitive and take your shooting sports performance to the next level. The main focus will be on discovering your limits with handgun shooting and handling skills, while practicing the skills and drills necessary to crush those USPSA and IDPA stages. We will cover shooting on the move, stage planning and footwork, while paying attention to efficiency, speed and accuracy and how it translates to USPSA and IDPA scoring. 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.
