Two Day Tactical Carbine
This course is for confident experienced carbine shooters looking to significantly improve their accuracy and speed under pressure of real-world scenarios. Day 1 covers the essentials of the Level I Carbine to ensure a consistent foundation of proficiency out to 100 yds; Day 2 consists of progressively challenging drills and events that force the shooter to also develop his/her critical thinking skills, along with achieving perfect execution of the fundamentals. The course also includes an optional stress shoot incorporating tactical movement, obstacle navigation, and testing of fine and gross motor skills under increased heart rate in order to replicate and train for stress responses experienced during a real-world shooting event. Throughout the course students will receive individualized assessment and skill development training, with the student/instructor ratio kept to no more than 8:1. (With larger classes, a second instructor will be added.)
