I wanted to take a minute and thank Joe for a wonderful class today and he deserves some recognition.
I could of gone to Vances or LEPD who I'm sure are great, but I wanted to support someone from our group and everyone who has taken his class had nothing but great things to say.
When I told my friends that I would be doing my CCW class this weekend they asked me, "why are you taking a 12 hour class? You only have to do an 8 hour class, but the one I did we just took the test, did the shooting portion and was done in 3 hours, don't waste your time." To each their own I guess, but I'm glad I took his 12 hour class on a beautiful Sunday. Joe covers what the NRA wants covered but expands on the material by showing tried and truth techniques that the NRA does not cover. He kept the class fun and entertaining with jokes, showing off his marksmanship and showing genuine care in your class time and range time.
Not once during the class did I look at the clock and think, dam this is dragging on I just want to be done. Everything that was covered today was great information that was above and beyond what is required. If you are considering obtaining your CCW or just want a good all around class for your firearm (or weapon as Joe uses), I highly recommend you go see Joe.
As car people, whats better then setting up class in an awesome garage with a nice STi and a beautiful RX7?
Lastly, Howard who teaches it with Joe is a great asset to this class. He worked with me on the range and I really enjoyed the time I got to spend with him in becoming a better shot (as well as his knowledge and expertise).
Thanks Joe and Howard!! It was a pleasure to take the class with you guys.
