This weekend, we had a safe and successful pistol clinic.  With 11 shooters, everyone showed significant improvement in marksmanship. The weather was windy on both days, and a thunderstorm moved through on Saturday. Overall, it was a safe and successful weekend. All instructors were involved with instruction and coaching.

For History, we covered the Three Strikes.  K3 delivered the First Strike at lunch on Saturday.  I delivered the Second Strike on Sunday morning, and Phoebe delivered the Third Strike at lunch on the same day.  As additional instruction, we asked the students which they preferred, and they chose to listen to the Security Onion. I covered the security onion to the attendees.  It went well, thanks to the students' participation.

In more detail about the success of our students, six students received the Pistoleer™ award, with one of them earning the Distinguished Pistol award.  And we gave out 3 Immortal 400 patches to our shooters who cleared the Hits Count target.

A thank you to all who attended that made the clinic a safe and successful event.  Here are some pictures of the event:



Thanks,

WOW - sounds like a great event -- the shooters did amazing!  Always nice to be able to hand out all of those patches!!
It's not about perfection -- it's about progress!!

I LOVE this stuff!

"Perhaps you and I have lived with this miracle too long to be properly appreciative. Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again" Ronald Reagan

Heck yeah!  The smiles on people's faces, making great scores, is what I strive for.
