Reflexive Shooting (16 Hours) - Armed Professionals

Overview

Working with a person’s natural tendency to be target focused, in tandem with our innate hand eye coordination ability, Reflexive Shooting allows shooters to take their speed and accuracy to new levels. Reflexive Shooting is based on the close combat experience and teachings of CQB icons Talbert, Applegate, Sykes and Fairbain. Drills are executed without sights and the shooter will be brought to skill levels relative to speed and accuracy that will sway even the most hardened “front sight focus” advocates.
