This 2 day course will build your Critical Carry Skills for shooting along with your mindset and ability to win a gunfight. These are not ‘range shooting skills’. These are CRITICAL shooting skills that will save your life, taught by the pro’s. 

Think about this: Once you have been forced to defend yourself, you MUST win. There is no other option. The skills that you will learn and refine in this course are designed to help you do just that. Coupled with the required mindset, you will greatly increase your odds. 

This course will also make your reaction time, presentation, reload, and your overall Critical Carry shooting skills faster and more efficient. Our goal is to help you make the transition from thinking about each skill to a near intuitive and efficient and skilled shooter. 

If you wish to draw faster, reload faster, become a more accurate shooter, and be able to process information and feedback from your handgun better, this is the course for you!

Critical Carry Skills - for that Critical moment in your life.
