Class Descriptions


Skills & Drills

If you are already classified then our Skills and Drills may be just the thing you’ve been looking for. Each night our structured practice sessions will focus on a different element of action pistol shooting. The draw, sight picture, transitions, movement and reloads are just a few of the topics that we’ll focus on. It won’t stop there either because you’ll get homework. We’ll send you home with some drills to work on that if done will reinforce the lessons covered in class. Bring your normal match equipment, 200 rounds and a willingness to learn.
Should the event sell out you may register for the waiting list. In the event of a cancellation participants on the waiting list will be contacted in the order that they registered.

Intro to Competition Pistol

For the shooter wanting to enter into pistol competition this 3 hour class will be an introduction to the rules and safety procedures needed to get started. This is accomplished through a small class size where individual attention coupled with open communication leads to a solid foundation in the shooting sports. Classroom topics covered will include safety, equipment, range procedures, basic rules, basic scoring and what to expect on the range. The live fire element of the class will expose the new shooter to a basic stage scenario where the shooter will have a chance to practice what they’ve learned in a low stress (uncompetitive) environment. The live fire portion of the class also gives the instructors an opportunity to evaluate and address any safety issues the student may exhibit prior to participating in a USPSA or IDPA match.
This introduction is designed for intermediate shooters who are looking to begin participating in action pistol shooting sports. Students should be knowledgeable with the safety and operation of their pistol and related equipment. Additionally students should be familiar with using and drawing from a holster. New shooters not familiar with the above should contact us to discuss training that will bring you to this level.
Prior to attending it is strongly recommended that students familiarize themselves with the rulebook that pertains to the sport (USPSA or IDPA) that they wish to participate in.

Required equipment to bring includes:
  • Reliable, modern pistol or revolver.
  • A quality holster as described in the relevant rulebook.
  • Minimum of 3 magazines (pistol) or 4 speed loaders (revolver) *more is preferred*
  • Minimum of 2 magazine carriers (pistol) or 3 speed loader carriers (revolver)
  • 100 rounds of quality ammunition. We may not shoot this much but it’s best to have extra.
  • Appropriate eye and ear protection
