Relevant Feedback
Dorr teaches REAL LIFE tactical applications. Thorough and relevant, this is the most comprehensive gun fighting course I’ve taken. Far more useful training than the military / Law enforcement firearms training I’ve completed in the past. Want a challenge? Sign up!
Dorr is spot on. Lots of good information and very helpful in class. Extremely personable. By far one of the best instructors I have had. Two issue which have nothing to do with the instructor. People showing up late. It cuts into the time the rest of us paid for. I am there to learn not wait on people that cannot make it on time. People showing up with rifles not zeroed. This puts the instructor in a hard position because he cannot give constructive feedback, so he is left with no choice but to zero rifles which was time consuming. A few others and I zeroed or rifles ahead of time and this becomes problematic when we have to wait for the ones that did not. Emphasis on this was not Dorr’s fault. Not sure how you would correct those two issues. With the Zero issue maybe let them shoot what they have the way they have it or send them to a separate part of the range to zero and come back.
Outstanding class and looking forward to PC2.
The course was a fantastic introduction to tactical pistol / carbine use. Concentration on the basics of proper weapon handling, stance, and target engagement is both a great foundation for follow-on courses, and a refresher for those who haven’t fired for a while. The instructor was obviously a subject matter expert, but taught in a matter easily understood by all. Our class consisted of law enforcement, seasoned shooters, down to beginners. I believe all felt welcomed, and all left with new / improved skills. My competence and confidence have improved due to this course, and I’m looking forward to attending pistol / carbine 2 in the near future. I would highly recommend Tactical Hyve for your training needs.
Great class!! Great instructors!
