I’m impressed, I must say. Actually not often do I encounter a blog that’s each educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you’ve gotten hit the nail on the head. Your thought is outstanding; the issue is something that not sufficient persons ar…

Hi, Great blog you got here,Check this site out as well, this site contains a lot of information that you may find useful….

I have been to a number of classes in many different venues. To be honest I am often disappointed with a retread of the same old material. Bruces class do not disappoint. I took a 3 day class in Western MA a few years ago. It was by far the best shooting training I have ever had. We hit shooting fundamentals but not in a way that drove me crazy but rather in a way that consistently improved my shooting over the three days. On the last day of class the entire class was cutting cards in half on end in under 5 shots with many getting it on a shot or two. This was the result of three days of fundamentals focused on true shooting.

Safety…………
I want to start by saying that Bruce and his team insisted on a safe range and shooting experience for all. I get frustrated when I sign up for a two day intermediate focused class and we spend 1/2 of the time on this is how to be safe with the gun. This really galls me when you already made an intro class (totally -80%- focused on safety) a prerequisite. I paid for the next step and that is what I expected to get. In this way the GGI class really delivered. Again I want to stress that unsafe action with firearms was not and should not be tolerated in an class or at anytime with a firearm, but this was about the next step.

Some of the parts that I enjoyed about the class was how every skill level in the class was both respected and addressed. I was not close to the best shooter in the and I had a great time. I am also confident that tackdrivers in the class really enjoyed themselves.

Without reservation I would recommend this class to all levels of shooters once you have taken a basic shooting class and had a little experience. This is one of the best shooting classes you can take.

I wholeheartedly agree that your Practical Fundamentals course is a useful class for a wide variety of shooters. I’ve taken it twice and in both cases, I shot with people ranging from those who could produce miniscule groups at speed to those needing to be shown how to insert a magazine or handle their firearm in a safe manner. Provided there were enough instructors, this didn’t hinder the progress of the class and I came away with something different each time.

The hardest part for me, since I had been shooting recreationally for over 20 years prior to your course, was unlearning the bad habits I had picked up. That’s probably why I found myself improving more in the second class than the first – old habits are sometimes hard to break. I remember in the second class when my groups were 8″ in the morning and 3″ by the late afternoon. That was a good day. You include a lot of practical info (hence the course title), and I came away with good insight into why I should do things as well as several drills to use afterwards.

I’d recommend the Practical Fundamentals class to anyone looking to improve the accuracy and consistency of their shooting.

Excellent article! You taught J/M and I to tape over the timer display when training and make accuracy the priority and not the clock. During competition/fight/stress, your priority is to get the hits accurately and the speed will come with repetition.
