Hello all, I didn’t want to hi-jack redwing’s thread so I started this one.
I had two hours with Coach on 8/5/14 one on one. I’m newer to firearms and I have taken several group classes this past year that were pretty basic classes. This was the next stepping stone for me and it was a great two hours on the range.
Coach has the ability to explain the mechanics of shooting so that anyone can understand it. He is able to watch you shoot and diagnose what you are doing wrong and quickly correct it.
There were so many things we went over, he would show/explain the drill then have me step up and do the drill and correct any issues. After running a drill we would walk up to the targets and talk about my hits, what was good and poor about them.
We were at MCFG also, my first time at an outdoor range where I could work on my draw stroke, fire at multiple targets and do double and triple taps.
Lessons learned (format borrowed from redwing)
Now if you read this far let me add, I had read many good things about Coach here but I still was a little hesitant, only because it was a 2 hour 15 minute drive for me one way; I am very happy I made the commitment to myself and went, and I will definitely be seeing Coach again in the near future.
And finally like most of us I am on a budget and a lot of the training out there although I need it, it is simply out of my price range. Coach is affordable especially for the lessons learned and time spent with him, if you can afford a firearm you can afford Coach.
Aron, again thank you for your time and the boost to my confidence.
Same as redwing this is not a solicited review.
Stay safe, Pat

Lessons learned (format borrowed from redwing)
- VERY IMPORTANT, finger position and trigger pull
- Draw stroke
- keeping the gun at chest level when working reloads/malfunctions
- I can’t give away too much, GO SEE COACH!!!
