Competition Pistol 1
Competition Pistol 1
Competition Pistol Level 1 with Master Class Shooter Chip Willmore
USPSA-Style Performance Shooting Course
This class is built for shooters who want to go beyond static marksmanship and learn how to perform under pressure, on the clock, and in movement-based environments. Practical Pistol 1 is a prerequisite to this class.
Whether you’re brand new to practical shooting or looking to refine your match performance, this course is designed to develop the skills that matter most in USPSA and other action pistol disciplines.
What You’ll Learn
This is not a slow-fire accuracy class. This is about shooting fast, shooting smart, and shooting consistently.
Students will work on:
• Practical Accuracy
Delivering A-zone hits at match speed, not just slow-fire perfection.
• Draw Speed & First Shot Efficiency
Reducing wasted motion from holster to first hit.
• Reloads Under Pressure
Executing reloads that don’t cost you time or points.
• Movement Techniques
Entering and exiting positions aggressively without sacrificing control.
• Target Transitions
Learning to see and drive the gun efficiently between targets.
• Stage Planning & Mental Game
Breaking down courses of fire to balance speed, accuracy, and risk.
• Match-Realistic Problem Solving
Shooting partials, steel, distance, and awkward positions just like you’ll face in competition.
