March 19, 2023The Skill Builder Pistol classes were great! The written descriptions were an accurate representation of what was covered in the four classes I attended. Each one of these classes can stand on its own, however, if you are considering taking more than one, my recommendation would be the following order to build on the skills: Draws and Reloads; Speed and Accuracy; Shooting and Moving; Reactive Shooting (I have not had the opportunity to attend Positional Shooting yet). The estimated 150 round count averaged out across the four classes; I would recommend bringing additional ammunition in the event the opportunity to train more presents itself. The three hour sessions were offered both on the weekends and evenings in an effort to accommodate customer schedules. This was enough time to thoroughly cover the subject matter and allow the instructor to give all attending the individual attention.

March 19, 2023I just completed the Skill Builder Pistol series of courses. Draw & Reload, Speed & Accuracy, Moving & Shooting and Reactive Shooting. As always Brandon rocks as the instructor. We had a wide range of abilities in the group and I think all felt comfortable with pace and topic in each session even when pushed out of your comfort zone. Everyone was a better shooter after the courses than before. Highly recommend this series to all shooters.

22 Jan, 2023Just took the new Speed and Accuracy Pistol Skill Builder class and enjoyed it a lot. I like that it's a 3 hour class focusing on a certain aspect of shooting vs an 8 hour class that takes up a whole day. This class will help you fine tune your grip and control of the gun in order to remain accurate when shooting fast strings.
