PSTL Class & Match Training Experience

Welcome!

This will be a learning experience like no other, you will be learning from FIVE of the best practical shooting competitors in the US, and at the same time shooting the equivalent of a USPSA major match. More value and more experience than any other training opportunity available.

Class format: The class will be in the format of a match, with squads rotating between stages. When you and your squad show up on a stage, waiting on you will be one of the best pistol shooters in the country, for example, Aaron Eddins. Eddins will teach you in the typical class-style format a skill that he excels in, after learning and practicing, you will apply it to the stage and shoot in match-style, receiving individualized feedback and tips after each person shoots. Then your squad moves to the next stage, where another top level GM or national champion waits to teach you another skill or training method, then you’ll apply it to that stage.

Each day you will work with each instructor, completing 5 “lessons” and 5 stages per day.

Leading up to the event squadding will be organized on the GPGC practiscore page just like a match. (You will not be able to squad without having signed up on this website)
