Competition Handgun I

Comp Skills 1 and 2

Competition Handgun Level I is building on Defensive Handgun Level I and II by adding the pressure of Competition and the pressure of time. Level I is focusing on the handgun marksmanship and handgun manipulations involved in being successful at your first or next competition match.

This course is perfect for anyone interested in becoming a better shooter, getting into competitive shooting, or are already a competitive shooter but would like the instruction needed to increase their performance. Regardless of your current handgun proficiency this is a fun and exciting course that will take your skills to the next level!

Not only will we cover the basics, but each student will receive personal coaching and professional analysis of their performance during mock shooting stages. Each student will get feedback on how to be more efficient and increase their speed and accuracy.
