Course Content:
This 250 round course develops the skills needed to successfully operate your
pistol with your non-dominant hand in the event that your dominant hand is not
functional. Students will learn through a progression of freestyle and dominant
hand only drills to ultimately draw, reload, and clear malfunctions using only
their non-dominant hand. It is much more convenient to learn how to do this on
the range than to have to figure it out under incoming fire.
Logistics:
This course will be held on 11/15/2014 on a private range in
Oconee County with a start time of 0900.
The fee for the course is $75.00, and the course will be limited to six
students total and will be run in one relay.
If you aren’t shooting, you will be loading magazines. Breaks will be short. If everyone masters the skills quickly and if
students have ammo remaining, we will work on other things.
Skill level:
This is not an introductory course.
Students should already possess safe gun handling skills and be capable
of functioning on a firing line with other shooters.
Equipment:
You will need a quality semi-automatic pistol and ammunition that will function
in your pistol. Your holster should be
one that does not collapse when the pistol is drawn and allows for one-handed
re-holstering. Holsters that require the
use of the trigger finger to disengage a retention device, such as a Blackhawk
Serpa, are strongly discouraged. At
minimum, at least three magazines are needed, and at least two magazine
carriers are encouraged.
Shooters need eye and ear protection as well as a hat with a
brim.
Instructor:
The short version is that I hold firearms instructor certifications from GA
POST, the FBI, Rangemaster, and the NRA among others. I am a member of the Board of Directors for
the Georgia Association of Law Enforcement Firearms Instructors, and I have
been a peace officer for over 15 years.

Cancellation Policy:
I need six students for this course to be a go. If you cancel, refunds will only be granted
if I am able to sell your spot to another student.
If for some reason I am forced to cancel, not only will you get a full refund,
I will do a make-up date for free, and you will get a 50% discount on a
subsequent class (does not apply to hosted classes).
Registration:
To sign up for the course, contact me at
[email protected]. I will not collect any money until I have six
firm commitments for the class. At that
time, I will send payment instructions to those who have expressed interest,
and the first six to send payment will have spots in the class.
