Four coworkers and I spent the day with Frank Proctor for a private class.

Nice AAR, Chief. Mr. Proctor is on my list of folks to take classes from next year.

I'm looking forward to your session at the Rangemaster Conference in February as well.

I liked the proessing while shooting. Not nearly enough of that is done.

Frank's one of the guys I'd love to take a class from. I've watched several of his videos and I very much like his low key analytical approach and lack of chest puffing. I've seen far too many trainers, even some of the noted ones, who seem to have a, "Let me show you what a bad ass I am." block built into their curriculum. I don't like paying for the privilege of watching someone's ego stroke.

It was a very groovy/magical class for sure. I really like Franks approach to instruction and the way he thinks and try's to look at things differently. The class refined so much and took stuff I knew but it was explained in a new better way to me and made it easier to apply to my shooting.

Very good review. I took his pistol/carbine class last year and he is an exceptional instructor. He is the first I've encountered who breaks the paradigm of focusing on the front sight. He got us to look through the sights so we can watch the target (bad guy). Similar to how we use red dot sights but it does work with traditional pistol sights if you can engage that part of your brain.

He is on my list of instructors I plan to train with again.

I am more than pleased at the response this review has gotten. In less than a week it has had over 1000 reads. My only review with more reads is the one for Rogers where OrigamiAK and Manny Bragg both shot 125s, and it has been up since April.

My guys are already talking about wanting to make another trip over train with Frank. I think a carbine class would make a good outing.

His infectious enthusiastic personality is just a joy to be around too.

He got us to look through the sights

Sounds a lot like Ayoob's "shooting out of the notch" technique. All parts of the same puzzle.
