This was a sold out event (plus a walk-on)!!!! Huzzah!!! I have been to quite a few pistol clinics and the groups of the early targets were some of the best I have seen...3 students hit Pitcairn's Button on the first "Hits Count" target! That is definitely a great start to the day. Pretty much everyone was able to keep up with the pace, which was great!!! The highlight of my day was seeing Holly S's face when she scored Pistoleer™ with a 215! Congratulations!!!!! :F We had several folks knocking on the door with scores above 200. If it were a 2 day event, I am certain that they would have scored 210 or higher. It was unusually hot for late October and I think folks were spent by the end of the day. Regardless everyone seemed to have fun. I had a great time working with these fine patriots and look forward to seeing them again.

I completely agree. The students were eager to learn and showed excellent improvement early. The venue at Stones River TWRA range was wonderful, with a private range area for us and comfortable and air conditioned classroom.
We had nearly a 1:2 instructor to student ratio which is optimal for quality instruction and safety.
The strikes were well presented and we still had time for 3 PQTs with the new COF format.
Congrats on a great shoot!
This was a great Pistol Clinic! The shooters were attentive and engaged. Each one had a teachable attitude and put the instruction into practice immediately. The shooters also took one-on-one instruction well.
Big HUZZAH's to Palousie on earning her Pistoleer™ badge! She will leave a huge hole in the Middle Tennessee cadre when she begins her new job out of state. Best of all blessings to her. I hope we see you soon, and regularly!
Thank you to each Instructor who came out this weekend. You make these events work - and this one definitely worked. Thank you.
