Complete Combatant's TEST/SCORED Drills
The following courses of fire challenge the armed citizen to perform the most common technical skills from a concealed draw. A well-designed interlocking curriculum provides a platform for building and evaluating core skills, efficiency, effectiveness, and mental fortitude. I use martial art belt ranks as the basis for the patch system. I have taught and developed this curriculum for four decades, and I have a deep understanding of the developmental process of athletes.

Deliberate Coaching: Why the Top Coach Award?
The Deliberate Coaching class is first and foremost a coaching class, although shooting well is important.
You will be partnered with a classmate to coach, and better scores over the baseline scores will determine the top coach. The more your partner improves the better your score, so picking a partner you can help is essential.
This challenges the Coach to make adaptive corrections to quickly improve the shooter. As an added benefit the extra points will be added to your overall score, which emphasizes shooting and coaching.
Top Coach is the highest award in class keeping the focus being the best Coach possible.
