Our first 2019 training class at one of our home ranges in Paducah, Kentucky has been scheduled! Our flagship Practical Fundamentals class on April 13 & 14.

This is not a basic class. At minimum, students should have taken a basic handgun safety course and be confident with their firearm and gear. We expect students to have experience shooting on a line in a safe manner, including loading, reloading and drawing/shooting from the holster. Shooters with IDPA, USPSA, NRA Action Pistol, 3-Gun, law enforcement and military experience meet the program prerequisites.

Have you taken Practical Fundamentals before? Students who have taken this class multiple times state they get more and more out of the class each time they take it.

Practical Fundamentals
Using a building-block approach, Practical Fundamentals encourages students to focus on the process of running the gun, tamping down the emotional desire to see results on the target. By using a variety of dry fire and live fire exercises, students are brought through the fundamentals of marksmanship with a focus on trigger control to help the shooter make fast hits on small targets, on demand.

Instructors*: Jerry Jones

When: April 13 & 14, 2019 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day

Class size: Limited to 24 students, with a minimum of 12 students.

Tuition: $450, with a $225 deposit

Range Fees: $40, to be paid in cash at orientation on the morning of April 13.

Local Host: Jerry Jones

Ammunition: Round count for Practical Fundamentals will be approximately 750 - 850 rounds
