Women's Pistol Training: Advanced Beginner

Description

This six-hour outdoor dynamic pistol training class is designed to advance the development of women shooters who already possess basic pistol skills. You'll run courses of fire designed to develop and refine core gun handling and shooting fundamentals. Working from 5 to 25 yards, you’ll be introduced to dynamic target transitions and movement drills under time constraints.

What's covered:

• Safety brief and review of gun safety rules. Assessment and refinement of gun handling skills including ready positions, draw stroke, loading, unloading, tactical and emergency reloads and clearing malfunctions.

• You’ll hone core fundamentals including stance, grip and vision. You’ll begin to build consistency and repeatability into your shooting technique while being pushed to shoot with urgency, from distances of 5 to 25 yds.

• For defensive utility, you’ll be introduced to more dynamic pistol shooting with multiple target transitions and movement drills on a timer. You’ll also work at more challenging distances beyond 15 yds on a Mini A-DAP steel target.

Topics Covered

You’ll get lots of trigger time working drills that are relevant to skill development. You’ll put in the practical work that drives real performance improvement, confidence, competency and consistency.
