Class Description

This class will introduce current pistol owners to the basics of accurate pistol shooting, and teach you how to become more accurate at pistol target shooting by covering topics such as:

Stance
Grip
Sight alignment
Breath control
Trigger pull
Follow through

Report to the indoor range by 8:30 a.m., where each student will shoot 5 rounds on one target at 10 - 15 feet. Next, move upstairs and we'll review and reinforce techniques for the topics above. Last, we will return to the range for a hands-on practice session. At the end of the class, you’ll have an opportunity to compare your more recent targets to your first target in order to gauge your improvement.

Instructors will also be available to discuss the ASC pistol team and competitive shooting leagues for those who might be interested.

This class is sponsored by Steve Cioffi, ASC Training Director.
