9 Great Americans came out on a Friday for a mini pistol clinic. We only had the range from 2 PM until 6 PM but we more than made the best of it. After going over some points of safety for pistol instructors and all Safety rules for Appleseed we opened the fire hose of instruction.   Boy did this group take that information in. We were able to get 4 PQTs in this day and found two new Pistoleer™s. Congratulations goes out to Morpheus (Steve) and BoonCaudill (Doug).  A special shout out has to go out to Morpheus. We had to score his target 3 times on one PQT as 229 with iron sights was soooooooo close to a distinguished patch score.

We were hosted by the Pleasant Grove Baptist Church. What a great venue. The Associate Pastor Jeff came to visit during our class and being an accomplished pistol shooter we invited him to shoot with us.  Jeff turned in a very respectable 208 on the PQT. Great job Jeff.  I wasnt able to get all the score of all the shooters but everybody did a great job with very quick instruction points.

I am looking forward to to seeing everybody on the line again soon so everybody can get one of those coveted Pistoleer™ patches.

What a great clinic. Steve, you are an excellent instructor (no surprise to me).
Thanks so much for you and Planeman for taking the extra time to present us with an opportunity to develop our pistol skills.
The course of instruction was excellent. As soon as we get Morpheus certified, we want to hold more pistol events in Georgia.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, 1775

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."  George Washington 1790

"[T]o preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them…"
