What a great class ! Jeff creates a safe and fun environment to push his students out of their comfort zone to get better, smarter, more accurate and competent. He has a way of focusing on the specific needs of each student and identifying ways to remediate deficiencies in weapons systems, technique, and mindset. I sometimes felt like I was the only student in his class.
There are many aspects that made this class awesome but it all came down to mastering the basics of marksmanship, and challenging growth by introducing more difficult scenarios based on time, distance and target.

This is a fantastic and humbling class. Jeff and Hank run a professional class and range that builds you up using a linear progression model. Even with 13 years in law enforcement I found myself learning with every module we covered. If you carry concealed I can’t recommend this class enough.
