Classifier Prep

This class is specifically designed to help shooters prepare for USPSA classifiers with the goal of improving or solidifying their classification. Students will focus on the key skills tested in classifier stages, including draw speed, target transitions, reloads, and rapid but accurate shot placement. The course will break down common classifier stages, emphasizing strategy, stage mechanics, and proper execution under pressure. Participants will run multiple classifier-style drills and receive individualized feedback to fine-tune their performance and boost consistency.

Perfect for competitors aiming to move up in classification or better understand what it takes to shoot classifiers at their full potential.
