We accomplish this by measuring each shooter’s incremental growth. This provides an intimate knowledge of the student’s strengths and more importantly areas of need. Fundamentals are introduced, and then methodically reinforced in and out of class. We believe in creating a push-pull learning environment to assure that all measures of understanding are achieved. Every Module is designed to build on the last and internalize each principle covered. This begins with Introduction (MOD I), then Application(MOD II) and finally Validation (MOD III).

​

As a training organization we reinvest a substantial amount of resources back into continued education, to assure that what we offer you is vetted, tested and up to date.
