What Class?

[A.J. Holst]

I want to take a pistol class, but not sure which one.

Reside in Knoxville area.

I would place my skill level at average, though after my first humbling IDPA Event, well below average comes to mind.

Been pistol shooting for 20 years, 16 casually, last 4 years more active as that is when I obtained my hcp.

Shoot typically 2 times a month.

Here is my biggest challenge, I work 6 days a week at Whassup Dog and we close at 8pm, so my only day off is Sunday.

Any suggestions? If it helps, I have access to a great shooting "range" on private property, but fear the cost of an instructor making a house call could be prohibitive.

Thanks in advance!

I'm in Chattanooga. I offer classes in this area and I also travel quite a bit teaching. If you'd like to discuss a "house call" I'm all ears . Of course we are also offering some 1 day pistol classes (Suarez International USA, Inc. - High Intensity Training Schools) that if you were interested in coming here we might schedule one on a Sunday for OR if you wanted to host one there it would get you free training as the host.

You can check out some reviews of my classes here at TGO. If there is something I can help you with let me know.

Check out Fighting Pistol at Tactical Response in Camden, TN. I've done six courses with them and I'm going for my seventh this weekend. All the classes I've taken have been excellent. You csn also stay in the "team room" for free if you register early. The instructors stay in the team room also, so the learning continues in the evening, plus it's a great way to get to know others in the class.

Randy,

Thanks for the feedback, I will shoot you a pm to discuss options. A one day on a Sun may work; may be able to get some buddies to go to make it worth your while.

Horse, do you know if Tactical offers one day sunday sessions?

It's a weekend course. If you sign up for the April 7th one, we can carpool.

TR occasionally offers a one day intro course, but any worthwhile training is really going to be a weekend course or longer. Check their website for schedules and details. Tactical Response

That is a bit of a broad statment. While 2 days is generally better than 1 , one day classes are hardly not "worthwhile".
