Force-on-Force Training

Real-World CCW Scenarios

Prepare the part that matters most: judgment under pressure.

No prior Force-on-Force experience required. Ideal for responsible armed citizens, church safety team members, and shooters who want to safely evaluate decision-making under stress.

Force-on-Force Scenario Training — Scenario-Based Readiness

This class is scenario-based, real-world training designed to help you evaluate how you actually make decisions when things get fast and uncertain.

Force-on-Force is not a square-range shooting class. It’s a structured, supervised environment where you’ll face realistic problems, make real-time choices, and learn what holds up — and what doesn’t — under pressure.

(No prior Force-on-Force experience required. Just show up ready to learn.)

📌 Course Overview

This course is built around one core goal: Expose what you actually do under stress — then improve it.

You’ll move through short scenarios that create uncertainty, time pressure, and human interaction. After each run, we pause for a structured debrief so you understand:

🔹what you did well,

🔹what you missed,

🔹what stress changed, and what to do differently next time.

This training is designed to be professional, controlled, and safe — not chaotic, not reckless, and not “tactical theater.”

🔍 Who This Class Is For

This class is a strong fit for:

🔹CCW holders who want to test real readiness (not just accuracy)

🔹First-time Force-on-Force students who want a safe introduction

🔹Church safety / security team members and volunteers who carry for others

🔹Shooters who have range time but want decision-making under pressure

🔹Anyone who wants real world training

🧠 What You’ll Learn

✅ Scenario-based problem solving (unknown situations, incomplete information)

✅ Decision-making under time and social pressure

✅ Verbalization and communication under stress (as appropriate)

✅ Threat recognition and prioritization

✅ Managing stress responses (tunnel vision, rushed decisions, freezing)

✅ After-action debriefs to identify patterns and improve quickly

Important: This class focuses on judgment and performance under stress. Specific scenario details may vary.
