Course Description:
Practical Edge Shooting will provide two days of dynamic training covering both pistol and rifle skills at this year’s WSTOA Conference. Instructors will provide simplistic approaches to shooting skills, which when applied by our students, results in a demonstrated understanding of how to place accurate rounds on target when time is of consequence. Practical Edge Shooting accomplishes this by presenting skill development instruction followed by applying those skills in stages of fire that are dynamic, and reactive. Practical Edge Shooting will teach shooting skills to help SWAT Operators win sudden, violent, armed encounters.
