Course Description: The goal of this course is to improve the general shooting skills of intermediate level pistol shooters.

Topics: reducing perceived recoil, improving on the basic grip and stance, and increasing accuracy and speed on single and multiple targets. Additional information about local pistol competitions and gun clubs will be provided. Grip and stance techniques taught are based on the modified Isoceles platform popularized by world champion IPSC competitors but now in widespread use by pistol competitors in many sports, as well as law enforcement (SWAT) and elite military units.
