What makes us different

Private 1-on-1 & Small Group

For real progress, nothing moves the needle faster than private instruction — it's the heart of what we do. Whether you've never touched a pistol or you compete on weekends, we'll build the class around the gap you want to close. Pistol, AR, or shotgun — Jake teaches all three and will tailor the session to whatever you want to work on.
