The Fundamentals of Fast- Applied to Pistol and Carbine

This is a 2 day course. Day one will be all pistol. Day 2 will introduce carbine techniques and concepts.  Shooters can shoot the entire course with pistol if they wish.

Outdoor range courses limited to 16 students (plus the host) Indoor range courses limited to 12 students plus the host

My brand of shooting is FAST ACCURATE EASY.  I have been shooting and training as a Profession and a Passion for over 20 years.  Over this amount of time I have gathered a lot of information, knowledge, experiences, failures and successes that I want to transfer to the people that train with me.  I struggle because I want to give every bit of it in every class but honestly there is no way to put over 20 years of living and learning shooting and training to shoot into 2 days.  This course is the current curation of my knowledge and experiences in shooting and training to do it better.  Here's what to expect:

Priority on what matters most in shooting.  Shooting of any kind even performance shooting is a simple thing.  I break it down into things we need to SEE and things we need to DO.  

We'll start by listing those things and then start working through exercises that will help us grasp the concepts and build habits to execute those concepts on demand and at any level of performance we want to train to.

I will present the concepts in a simple and easy to understand/digest way.  I do believe and will share with you how I feel shooting and training can be very intuitive (LET IT DO)

The information presented will be heavy on concept and light on technique.  I don't believe in telling someone HOW to do something, but rather explain the concept of what needs to executed and as humans we are very adaptable and will create our own techniques that work best with our individuality.  I believe that teaching technique first binds people and prohibits growth.  I will share some techniques that through the challenges presented to my in my shooting experiences my mind and body adapted... they may be helpful to you or you may be able to develop something from them that works well for you.

Doing dry fire with the right intentions allowed me to make my biggest leap in performance  as a shooter.  I think it is extremely important in our development and building habits that help us perform.  We will run though some base dry fire exercises and you will walk away with very solid dry-fire workout that you can do for 10-15 minutes per day and see huge gains.

In dry fire we can develop most of the skills and habits that we need for shooting.  There are only a few things that we have to shoot live to master.  We will run through some live fire exercises that will help us build and refine those habits and you will leave with a very good live fire workout that you can use as is or modify to reach any goal you have as a shooter.  

HABITS-I put a focus on developing good habits when we train.  When it's time to perform...it is your habits that will show up, good or bad.  Building good habits is easy but we have to be mindful when we train.

Training and Doing are different.  Frequently shooters will go to the range or dry fire and DO drills.  What we will do is set our intentions when we invest our time and resources and by doing so we will get more out of the exercises and they will help us grow/get better.

In the past people have thought that what I offer is for competition only. In my time as a professional shooter I was in the US Army Special Forces ( Green Beret) for 15 years and have been a USPSA Grandmaster for over 16 years.  My brand of shooting is performance oriented I like to call it Fast Accurate Easy.  The information and concepts I will present to you are applicable to any type of shooting, recreational, competitive or combat. 

EQUIPMENT LIST 

Bring what YOU need to shoot and take care of your body during an active and fast paced day on a range outdoors

Hearing and eye protection

Pistol- Iron sights or Red dots, bring several guns if you'd like I will most likely shoot a dot gun and an iron sight gun in the course.

Safe Holster- OWB or IWB 

Pistol magazines- 3 is good but 2 will work as well.  

Carbine or PCC - on day 2 shooters can shoot carbine or stay with pistol

2 magazines for carbine 1 carbine mag pouch is enough

A sling is not necessary but helpful 

600 rounds of ammo per day. Bring ammo for day 2 based on which gun you plan to shoot or plan to shoot most.  More is always better.

Class times are typically 9-4 with some variations, we frequently go longer or offer the option for shooters to stay later.
