NOTE:
All Defensive Firearms II classes include stress drills where you will be moving through a predetermined course of fire and engaging targets at distances as far as 300 yards. Although the participation in these drills is optional, it is highly recommended at this level since they are designed to test a student’s ability in a realistic environment under stress. Not only are they a great indication of your abilities, but they are also a lot of fun.
If students cannot safely keep up with the course tempo, the instructor staff may have students continue drills with gun clear and safe or sit out during the exercise for the safety of the group.
