Tactical shooting course

[CapnCrunch]

I just got back from finishing a couple-hour-long live-fire tactical shooting course given by Dan Brunner of the Personal Defense Institute (http://www.thepdi.org/) down at Cactus Flats range near Pueblo. I really enjoyed it! Got great tips on CQC and taught techniques of shooting to be on the successful end of a deadly confrontation. On their website, it's called the Advanced Concealed Carry Training Seminar with Tactical Shooting course and involves a seminar on one day and live-fire on another.

One suggestion: the live-fire portion takes place on Saturdays in a couple different sessions during the day. If you should sign up, try to get the last course of the day. Today there were only two, but I think they sometimes have three. The one I was in was the last one today. The advantage is that you'd likely have more time to "play" (ask more questions, be shown more techniques, examine more scenarios, and fire more rounds).

I had a great time!

So I'd like to take more. What commercial live-fire courses have you been through in Colorado? What did the course focus on?

I asked about further course-work and Dan told me about a 6-day-straight course here in Colorado he's involved with which has each student going through 1800 rounds during the course. I may look further into that. :D

I've thought about Valhalla. Sounds like it would be a good time for both the five-star resort as well as the defense training. My wife and I have kicked the idea around and we may do it at some point in the future.

But so far I haven't pulled the trigger :D on any tac training. I have read books and practice some of the techniques, tho.
