I attended a two day course with Jim focused on pistol training. I can’t say enough about Jim and the experience as a whole. My mechanics and shooting improved drastically in a short amount of time. Jim is a very capable teacher, and his passion for shooting and sharing knowledge is very evident. Not to mention you probably won’t go any longer than a few minutes before the next laugh. This was not my first class with Jim, and it won’t be my last.

Great experience!

I took the Tactical Pistol Class offered by Jim in Scottsdale in December 2022. He presented a lot of valuable information throughout the course and made sure to present it in a way that was approachable by any level of shooter. His emphasis on ensuring that the course material fit each participants needs extended through both the instructional portion and the range portion. On the range Jim was able to quickly gauge each participant’s skill level during each drill and give personalized suggestions for improvement.
Jim’s resume speaks for itself, but his laid back, friendly, and personal approach to teaching the material is what will bring me to another one of his classes when he is in town.

Long Range Shooting Course

As a retired military man and fire fighter I have to say this was one of the most professional, knowledgeable, innovative courses of any sort I have ever gone through first hand. Everyone involved was nothing but professional intelligent and interactive on every level possible to make sure that the total experience was learning and helpful and motivating for everybody to accomplish what they set out to be. The attitudes both students and faculty were uplifting and I can’t say enough on how much it reminded me of my former experiences being in the military and in the fire department. On a scale of 1 to 10 it is a 10+ because the class is everything that he would hope for and more and I can’t recommend it enough for anyone from a basic shooter to an experienced shooter to experience firsthand.
