Title: Butte, AK Instructors only Pistol Prpogram run-through
Post by: FourFans on October 08, 2019, 12:34:12 AM

This was the Alaska Cadre's second PP event and our first event at our new venue

I think everyone present saw the value of this new range. It will be a valued addition to our list.
As per usual, Slowpoke put on an outstanding Pistol event. It lasted just under 6 hours and hail-storm aside was quite pleasant.
Many new instruction points were addressed, building on the last PP event. We did not shoot a PQT due to extensive learning occurring, which was my goal in scheduling this event. 6 hrs, 26 shots. DonD would be proud.

I'll lead off with thanking the Charter PP Cadre for adjusting the timing on Stage One. I never agreed with the 10 seconds.
Leading off with a bunch of "ball and dummy", is brilliant on SEVERAL levels.
The single handed shooting is challenging, but totally appropriate.
TAKA222 came up with a few ideas concerning a marked firing line. Very good, but adapting to pistols will still be a work-in-progress.

Over-all I think Alaska is at least on a par with the lower 48,, and we certainly sent the right representative.

For those of you that can view it, here is a link to my AAR comments on the 06 Oct event in the Pistol forum.

Sadly, not everyone has access.  But I posted a link to this tread over there, so the other Charter Pistol Instructors can see what you all write here.
