Training Courses Frank's Minnesota Class 2020

The AmericInn in North Branch is full and not taking reservations...

Apparently I called on the wrong day or talked to the wrong person. They are accepting reservations for the class dates today.
 
Eric passed the buck to Chuck H and I at GRRC. Everything is squared away and I’m looking forward to Friday. All there is to do is order some lunch for Saturday and Sunday, and get our learning on.
 
Last minute registration OK?

Schedule opened up and I can make it work if it is not too late?

Still seven spots open. I went last year and was totally planning on this year but can’t swing it due to multiple 2020 shitshow reasons. Extra hard to swallow since I live 8 minutes away. Best I’ll be able to do is show up and have Frank sign my book.

Wow. What a great three days of training! Chuck and Pete took great care of us at their wonderful range. They even kept the mosquitoes at bay.

Of course, Frank and Marc know how to run a class. I’ve got a lot of notes and log book pages to re-write into usable / legible dope. I appreciate the crawl, walk, run aspect to hammering home the fundamentals (see what I did there?) and liked the third day aspect of positional shooting a whole lot. I can’t think of anyone who couldn’t benefit something from this class, and I got a whole lot from it.

It was a pleasure meeting and shooting with the fine Americans who attended. Great Midwest representatives all! And they could shoot!

Thanks to Brady from Bartlein for the swag and pretty sweet offer. I will be switching to a cool guy caliber soon so I can keep up with Nic on that 1000 yard coyote. (He hates these coyotes!)

I’ll be looking at bringing my son and brother next. And hopefully camping at the site for some epic evenings and cave man TV!

Thanks all!
 
Time to relax now. Great class, great people. Thanks Chuck and Pete for the hospitality. Thanks Brady from Bartlien for the swag and the info. Thanks Frank and Marc for the great instruction. Will take a week to digest all the info and data I have collected. What a great foundation to build off of. Hope everyone has or will make it home ok.
 
What a great time this was. Great group of guys, special thanks to @Dill and Chuck for the work they put in to make it so enjoyable, Brady from Bartlein for the swag and the info, an incredible brand representative and a pretty darn good shooter to boot. The Frank & Mark show is all its cracked up to be and more. Year 2 for me still has me absorbing info and lessons to take away from it. It was amazing to watch everyone progress and turn from guys who shoot guns (many very well) to guys who UNDERSTAND how to shoot consistently and very well with some incredibly impeccable fundamentals by the end of day 3.
For anyone that reads this and wonders if it's worth it, just do it, I promise you won't regret it. You won't find a better value than what Frank and Mark offer and you will leave a markedly better shooter than you arrived as and have the skill set to continue that growth afterwards. Thank you Frank,Mark and everyone else for the good times during and the great laughs after hours (fyi don't try to beat Echo Lima in a arm wrestling match because he will win)
 
Had a great time and felt much better about my shooting after leaving today. Thanks to Frank, Marc, Brady, Pete, Chuck, and Mike! Great to meet all of you folks, if any regional shooting is goin on, don’t be a stranger!

This was a GREAT time. Can't imagine a better group of shooters to be around. You guys did as the program demands and really excelled, even in driving rain at small targets at 1K on Day 3. Wow. I am impressed and cannot wait to get back to Gopher Ridge. Hope to see you again next August.

PRESS - BREAK - FREEZE

Had a blast with everyone !

To echo, Thank you to Chuck, Pete, and Mike for the range support, you guys rocked it for us. And Pete, home run on the food!

The students were sponges, took instruction, executed, and kept everyone entertained in between.

Special Mention to Brady, Brady works at Bartlein Barrels and extended one of the most generous offers imaginable. Take a precision rifle class, get a huge, at cost discount on a custom Bartlein Barrel.

The classes, the evenings at Full Moon, one great experience to the next, we hope to do it again
