Training Philosophy

We believe in Mindset before Skill over Gear. This means that we reinforce your software, not just your hardware.

Mindset gives you the mental tools to perform when and where it counts, as performance shooting is 10% physical, 90% mental – in competition, hunting or combat. Mindset teaches you to control motion, and emotion.

Skills are introduced in Training, which teaches you what and how to Practice. Each training session includes a “homework” practice plan that enables you to cement each skill. We focus first on fundamental skills, as we know that Fundamentals win Firefights.

Gear will be dictated by your goals and will evolve with your Mindset and Skills. Bring what you have. Invest in yourself before you invest in gear. While we do not sell any products, we can help you figure out what you need and where to get it.

We do not care if you train with us, as much as we care that you DO train. We can help you find other quality instructors if they better suit your needs, including Prairie Long Range Academy, Call Sign 66, Rob Furlong Marksmanship Academy, Milcun, Millbrook and other.

“Good, Better, Best,

never let it rest,

until your Good gets Better,

and your Better gets Best!”
