Short Description
“I am a firm believer that when it comes to proper practice, quality is much more important than quantity, so this class will also cover principles of efficient practice, and how to structure your practices to identify and address your weaknesses”.
This is Tim Herron’s Flagship Class, focused on the practical shooting skills that will help you more confidently plan, tackle, and shave time from your performance with a pistol. While this class does contain some advanced fundamentals, the class is dynamic and stage oriented. It includes a day of “firing line” type fundamentals training and, space allowing, we will set up a full stage, for students to run through at the beginning of class. Throughout the class we will occasionally revisit this stage, and use parts of it to isolate and develop skills, and set up drills.
