Sherry reached out to me about a week ago,
after she bought her first handgun,
a G***k 19 with Red Dot.

She is a 911 Dispatch who knows how long it takes a police officer to respond to a 911 call in this area.

So I tailored a fundamental handgun course to her specific needs,
based on her experience.

-Handgun Knowledge & Mechanical Understanding.
-Disassembly, Cleaning, and Assembly.
-Shooting Fundamentals
-Dry Fire Practice
-Live Fire Accuracy Drills on Paper
-Live Fire Steel Drills (cause it's FUN!!)

As you can see,
on Sherry's B27 target,
she is fundamentally sound,
though it did take a few rounds for her to focus a bit more on her trigger control, not anticipate, and move they move before the round exited the the barrel....
but she quickly self-corrected,
and began drilling the center out of the X ring!!

She did outstanding,
and with a practice plan of attack,
I'm looking forward to training her again within the next month or so!

If you are a Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced Level Shooter,
I guarantee I can improve your shooting and/or tactics.

This afternoon was Ethan's second visit to Warhorse Tactics.

Three weeks ago,
we drove home fundamentals....
and Ethan put in the work dry-firing since then.

So today,
we rolled the plate rack out,
and worked in rhythm & cadence drills,
improving draw strokes & fundamentals,
on the MGM Targets Plate Rack.

Then the barrels came out.
TACTICS.
Contact Front. Contact Rear.
Assaulting Through, Breaking Contact, & Lateral Movement
TEAMWORK.
Shooting, Moving, Communicating.
Alternating & Successive Bounds.
Peeling Exercises.
Set. Moving. Move.
Security.

Dry then Live.

This was a ton of information and knowledge for any class,
let alone a second day of training encompassing four hours....
but Ethan consistently showed safety, understanding, and a willingness to learn & improve.

I have fun in all my classes,
from beginners to advanced,
but these classes.....
these classes I can display & teach the knowledge & experience that few instructors have or will ever have.

If you're interested,
I can get you there too!

Ethan reached out to me about a month ago,
hearing about Warhorse Tactics from Farrar's Fi****ms,
wanting to take private training.

I've been looking forward to this class,
as I look forward to every class,
but this was a bit different.

Ethan brought a ton of experience and a lot of training with him,
but he knew he still had a lot to learn.

We spent three hours training & shooting,
fine tuning,
tweaking,
improving,
eyeing every detail.

Ethan showed up expressing his goals.
Those goals were met,
then surpassed.

It was a good day.
Keep up the good work, Ethan.
Continue dry firing,
shooting,
and putting the work in.
See you in a month!

Gonna take a minute,
to give these two young men props!

Jacob reached out to me,
informing me that he,
and his friend, Colin,
would like to take a private 2-Gun Training Class....
and yesterday evening,
we were finally able to get together.

After the initial intros, safety and range briefs,
and briefing me of their experience & goals,
we began to train.

And I'm going to talk about a bit of good & a bit of bad....

The Good-
The work they already put in.
These two were safe. I mean, really safe! Their gun handling was spot on, and you could tell they've been putting in work. They believed in dry firing, and it showed. They performed better than expected when I worked through the fundamentals while dry firing.

Now The Bad-
Also, the work the already put in.
Though they've dry fired a ton, with backgrounds in ai***ft, that doesn't necessarily translate to putting rounds on target (and they know this. This is why they signed up for training)
Dry Firing doesn't streets the importance of have a good enough stance & grip to mitigate recoil & muzzle flip.

But.....
Through the duration of the class,
they listened,
and learned,
and improved.

Emphasizing accuracy,
adding a touch of speed,
shooting paper, then steel,
single targets, then multiple,
stationary, then moving, laterally, forward,
changing distances, multiple sized targets.

And they learned.

Shot Groups got Smaller.
Cadence got better.
Skills improved.

Now they have to continue to apply those skills,
while dry firing,
and on the live fire range.

Great Job,
Colin & Jacob,
I look forward to training with you both again!

When Robert King,
owner of Red Hill Tactical,
needs a range on short notice to confirm zeroes on his Kimbers & Atlas Gun Works 2011s,
a day before he leaves for USPSA Race Gun Nationals in Marengo, Ohio,
there's only one local range he chooses for all his shooting needs....

PM for your private shooting, training, and range needs.

I've been putting this build together for awhile now,
and though it may not be that big of a deal to some.

I have a memorial wall in my classroom named the WALL OF HEROES,
with 18 pictures of Friends I've lost in war.

I've always wanted to put a Memorial in the classroom:
R***e w/ Bayonet
Helmet
Boots
DogTags

One step closer,
Thanks to everyone involved

This Young Lady reached out to me a few weeks ago,
and we were able to finally coordinate training together,
that day being today.

Three hours of Training.

We started in air conditioned classroom,
after a quick rundown of her goals & expectations,
safety and dry-fire fundamentals from the holster.

Moved onto my actual classroom,
the range.
Proper Loading of her handgun.
Proper Draw.
One Round on Target.
Reloads.
Malfunctions.
Controlled Pairs.
Shooting from behind Cover.
Unloading.

Cylee brought a brand new Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp .380 to this class,
with a good IWB kydex holster,
the right belt,
electric ear pro,
and a great attitude & willingness to learn.

She absolutely knocked it out of the park,
definitely exceeding my expectations,
hopefully along with her own.

Keep up the great work Cylee,
you did amazing today,
you're a Rock Star!

GOALS.

Do you set them when you train, practice, shoot?

I usually set my training days based on speed or accuracy,
occasionally mixing them together.

Two days ago,
I focused on speed, consistently reducing my splits on reduced sized targets from the draw at increasef distances, with Lee & Kara.
Yesterday,
accuracy at the BCPL match.
Today,
Speed.
Sub one second draws from concealment appendix with a Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 with a red dot on a C Zone at 10 yards.

Ultimate Goal.
Two second BILL DRILLS.
6 rounds from the holster,
in 2 seconds,
at 6 yards,
all hits in the A Zone.

My best time ever.
2.01 seconds.

Analysis.
I need a sub one second draw (.94 seconds) considering my splits on target average .21 seconds.

Results.
I consistently hit in mid .9 seconds from concealment on a C Zone at 10 yards (sorry, no videos, you have to trust me)
But did I miss?
Yes.
A lot.
That's the only way you know you've pushed past your limits.
I was able to draw & engage in the .8s but wasn't consistent,
But it ultimately helped me be more comfortable in the .9s.

One step closer to achieving & constantly meeting this GOAL.

What are your goals?
- First place in the local match?
- Out shoot your buddies?
- Be better than you were yesterday....
in order to do that you need to shoot consistently.

Shooting is perishable.
You get rusty.
You need to train.....
and practice,
if you ultimately want to be serious about carrying & shooting a fi***rm to protect yourself and your family.
