Dave Spaulding July 15-16

[nb forrest]

Dave Spaulding is teaching a handgun class at Hilltop Firearms Training Center in Dover TN July 15-16. From what I've heard his classes are excellent and he's one of the most down to earth people you'll meet. If you're interested,

Dave is one of those rare instructors who can teach to the student on the level that they need.  From beginner to combat veteran with real world gunfights, I have seen Dave explain a technique (using different words and actions) to either of these type of shooters and achieve the same teaching objective for both.

As an example, Dave's efficient method of instruction for the draw is the definition of clear, simple and understandable.  Its makes all other methods taught by different instructors seem convulsive and jerky.

The guy that is hosting the class said there's still two slot available.

Took this class last weekend.  This was some very useful information and drills for what would be 80 -90 %  of anticipated civilian defensive handgun usage.  Most of it up close and personal.  Also dealing with panicked crowds, your responsibilities as a ' citizen first responder'.  The course exposed me to a lot of information that has not been this well covered in other classes.  About 75% of the students were LEO.  If one has their gun handling up to snuff, and if one carries, then this is some very important training.  Also if you live around the Dover area, Jerry at Hilltop Firearms Training Center hosted this event.  He is 'good folk', well versed in firearms training with good facilities.  I am sure Dave will be back next year so I would recommend taking whatever class you can from him.

Wish I would have seen this thread sooner. I saw alot off stuff posted on bookface from Jerry, Abner, and Dave. Hope that anyone who took the class enjoyed it. The amount of knowledge that Dave possesses is insane.

Keep an eye on Jerry's calendar, word is Dave will be back next year. Abner has now started instructing and has some interesting looking classes on the calendar to be hosted at Hilltop.

He will be back May 19-20 if I remember the Facebook post correct. I like Jerry and Hill Top quite a bit. I love Abner's YouTube channel and look forward to seeing some footage from the classes.

I wish I could have made it up for this class.  I'm hosting his Adaptive Pistol class in the Athens, GA, area in April of 2018.  I'm hoping to get into his Combative Pistol class somewhere prior to that.
