This course is designed for a new user or shooters who have never had formal training courses. You don't even have to own a rifle as loaners are available and you can shoot a variety of guns to decide what is best for you. This is our basic class and we designed it to be fun, informative, and should answer all of the questions you have about your rifle. If you just purchased a rifle, this is a great class to start with.
This course is offered in a one day, 5 hour block. This shorter class time provides a good amount of training, but not too much to make you feel overwhelmed. The class begins with a lecture and presentation, and demonstrations on the platform. The presentation transitions into a hands on section where the students understand the working parts of the rifle and become familiar with basic handling and nomenclature. The range session begins with a “zero,” a process where everyone sights in their rifle using their sight system, either traditional iron sights, electronic red dot style sights, or scopes. During the range portion students will perform a variety of drills becoming proficient with the fundamentals of marksmanship, loading, operating the rifle safely, and building a skill set to create effective training and practice sessions on their own.
Refreshments, sports drinks, and water, will be included with course.
