Pistol Foundation

Description

Refine stance, grip and target focused shooting, isolating skills like draw stroke, shooting and moving, shooting on the move and engaging multiple targets. You’ll work through a logical progression of skill building that stresses connection and vision to drive predictable behavior out of your gun for practical value. You’ll gain the capability to shoot at a more aggressive pace and hit targets at close to intermediate distances, applying different levels of confirmation for improved speed, control and accuracy.

You’ll run a mix of aggressive stand and deliver marksmanship exercises and scrambler drills that will test all the fundamentals. 

You’ll gain insight into how to use your targets as a diagnostic tool to help inform your practice going forward.

Classes are held at Lebanon County Police Combat Pistol Club in Lebanon County, PA, a natural outdoor environment that allows for effective training. Classes are capped at 5 students for maximum reps, individualized feedback and coaching.
