This training ranch is a hidden gem! Secluded and away from distractions yet close enough to…read moredowntown Marble Falls for a post-training bite and brewski. The country-drive to and from here is beautiful. It's quintessential Texas Hill Country! So when I say hidden, I mean, Jeff or one of his assistants must meet you at the front gate next to FM 1431. From there you'll be escorted up to the training area. You just have to follow Jeff/his assistant up the fire road leading to the grounds. When we met up with him he was driving his UTV. I suggest you drive a vehicle with decent ground clearance on the day of. No need for a 12" suspension lift or anything crazy like that, just ensure you're not driving a low slung vehicle like a sports car during your visit, LOL! Note: The ranch (actually a few ranches) shares a front gate with Hidden Falls Adventure Park. When you arrive at the grounds you'll notice it's next to Jeff's residence. How awesome is that?! Wake up, pour some coffee in a sippy cup, hop on the UTV and shoot a few rounds at some silhouettes or steel before the rooster even sounds the alarm! Wooohoo! I'm not a jealous kind of guy but... Anyhow, yes, Jeff's training was spot on! I won't go into the details. No spoiler alerts here. But like most valuable training you must first learn the basics and fundamentals before the more advanced techniques can be explored. Think of firearms training like a house. If the foundation is less than sturdy, no matter how great the house looks above the foundation, once some rockin' begins, the house will falter. So get the fundamentals mastered to avoid faltering. Besides firearms instruction, he can provide a Texas DPS accredited Texas LTC course. I already had my LTC but my much better half returned to complete the LTC program soon after. BTW: The safety brief and lunch breaks are held in his air conditioned living-room so please be southern-comfort mannered. =) Jeff is a great and patient instructor. That is important especially because folks learn at different paces. Some learn slower than others but that's ok. Heck, I didn't know I was tying my shoelaces incorrectly until I was in my early 30's! No wonder my knots would always come loose, LOL! Have fun y'all but most importantly, be safe!i

Both Lee and Raul are an excellent teachers and very knowledgeable from their respective military and law enforcement experience. The classes are informative and have lots of good detail as well as easy to understand. They brings their respective insights into the classroom and the class time went by very fast. Time on the range was good and both were present to make sure things went smoothly and make suggestions on how we were shooting. They both patiently answered questions in class and on the range. The only negative was the class was rather large (about 16 folks), but by splitting up the rooms when it went time for some hands on learning, it seemed to work just fine. I would definitely recommend Safety Measures.

Firstly, don't let yourself be deterred by all the poor reviews. I've read through lots of them and…read morethe majority are people who BROKE THE RULES and didn't like getting yelled at. Tough! This isn't a spa, it's a gun range where someone mishandling a firearm could mean the difference between life and death. Follow the very simple rules and you don't have to worry about the range master. I also saw comments on racism. I'm a 39yr old Latino and the staff has always been nothing but respectful to me, so please pay no attention to the sensitive snowflakes on here calling them racist. The Range: The range costs $25 per person, and no spectators are allowed. meaning that everyone has to undergo the orientation regardless if they're shooting or not. Newcomers will need to watch a 5-minute orientation video on the range rules before they are given their own lifetime range card. ATM is on site. The range has a split pistol and rifle range, with separate areas for shotguns and skeet shooting. Pistol ranges are between 7yds and 25yds (I think) and Rifle ranges are 50yds up to 300yds. All the bays are covered, benches have sandbags, and there is extra seating. Cease-fire occurs ever 20min. My Review: I've been coming here for years now. This has been the best 300yd range that is relatively near my home where I can sit down, smoke a cigar while I work on my load testing. The range does have a rule against FMJ ammo which is strange hence the 4-stars instead of 5. So make sure you bring soft-point ammo. They will check your mags during cease fires so don't try and be sneaky. They have ammo for sale but like most other ranges, you will be paying more. This place is in the sticks, just passed Cedar Park, so I'd make sure to bring everything you need before getting there. There is a gas station nearby where you can pick up some things if you need to. For those shooting 200-300 yds, they have a golf cart on site that you can use to drive to your target. Overall, this place is great if you can follow instructions and don't mind the heat in the summer.

I told him I'm waiting for a range cold call. He walked the firing line and yelled range code and told me I'm clear to go down range when I came back. The original range marshal was next to my gun and started screaming at me that I wasn't explicitly told by him the range was cold. I informed him that the other range marshal cleared the range while he was gone and told me I could go. He began yelling at me and getting in my face with his hand right next to his pistol as if he was threatening me. I went inside and informed management and they said they've had issues with him in the past, but they could not give me a refund for my range day. I will absolutely never be back to this range and I suggest no one does either. Absolutely unacceptable behavior from someone who's supposed to be the safety minded overseer of the range. He's is more of a liability than any shooter on that range.

Overall, this was an amazing experience which has significantly challenged and enhanced my skills. I can't wait to practice what we learned again at the range, as well progress with additional courses they offer. This is no weekend warrior shit. These guys are seasoned professionals who can coach you if your smart enough to close your mouth, and open your ears. Here is more details... I found Texas tactical Training institute on YELP, and while they had no reviews, their information and photos intrigued me to make a call and have an initial discussion. I spoke with Tim over the phone for more than 20 minutes, explaining what I was looking for and what he could recommend. He explained he was a former police officer who was now focussed on offering firearm training experiences for people of all skill levels, at a price that didn't scare people away. Within minutes you could feel his passion coming through the phone, and i was eager to get something scheduled. I shared the idea with a friend and we signed up for a 4-hour 'Intro to movement - pistol' class for the upcoming weekend. We were excited at the idea of receiving some training to improve our skills, but unsure what two 'seasoned' gun owners would be able to learn in just 4 hours. A few days ahead of the training day, we received instructions by email of where to meet the course instructor, and what to bring with us. On the day itself, it was unusually cold...39 degrees in April cold. This elevated the training to a new level, as we were both not prepared or used to shooting in such cold climate. When our hands were not tucked deep into our pockets in a effort to once again feel our fingers, our hands were a little shaky when shooting (or at least that was my excuse on the day.. he he). We started with a short yet descriptive safety brief, and jumped straight into some dry-fire exercises of turning 90 degrees and firing on the 'threat'. That is the word Instructor Dustin used when telling us to engage the target... "Threat". At that moment you would turn the 90 degrees, or 180 degrees, or start moving and shooting from various positions indicated by black circles of spray paint in the dirt that had just been created by Dustin and his his fellow Instructor Brian. Over the course of 4 hours we were introduced to various shooting exercises involving moving and shooting. My favorite phrase of the day (aside from "threat", which meant you were being told to engage the target), was "Push, Plant, Pull", which described your movements from one position to another. The push and planting refers to your feet, and the pull... well you can guess what that is for. We continued learning and practicing through the bitter 39 degree weather, breaking only for a few minutes here and there to return to the truck in an attempt to warm up and feel our fingers again. Dustin was an exceptional coach. He would watch you follow his instructions and offer specific minor changes to your body position, feet position, pistol grip, the elevation of my hands in relation to my eyes, and other small tweaks. All of which felt a little uncomfortable at first, kind of like I was shooting for the first time. However, this was a strong introduction to a new understanding that all my previous experience shooting was from a static position with no accountability of each round pushed through a paper target. I strongly recommend this training to firearm owners of all ages and skill levels. I also strongly recommend the 'intro to movement - pistol' course to anyone with a LTC, or someone looking to improve their skills.

He included some suggestions for defense that I had not even considered, believing (mistakenly) that they were illegal. He provided me with resources for materials and services which complemented the training, and made sure I understood how and when to use them. He was patient and answered questions completely. You may have complete confidence that you will understand your rights and responsibilities when you leave. I do think, however, that he was a little surprised that an old, fat guy with one leg in a wheelchair could black out the X ring with a puny little 9mm in less than 20 rounds.
