DEFENSIVE HANDGUN- LOW LIGHT
Instructor: Norman Hood
Over 60% of shootings happen in low light conditions. The techniques for low light shooting differ greatly from shooting in full light. This is a great opportunity to learn how to use your equipment with some great drills and instruction.
Defensive Handgun-Low Light is essentially a parallel to DH1 and DH2-with an emphasis on use of the handgun in conjunction with handheld and weapon mounted lights.
The use of a handgun in a lifesaving role often takes place in low, altered, or failing light. This course focuses on giving students the necessary skill, knowledge, awareness, and tools to employ the handgun effectively and efficiently in real world environmental conditions in varied terrain.
It is not just sticking a light on the end of your gun or holding a flashlight in the dark. Students will learn how to select appropriate tools and equipment and be able to seamlessly put the use of them together in the dark.
Defensive Handgun- Low Light will challenge you on the flat range and many of our other Urban and Rural terrain features.
