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

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.

Which is $35 and in town but usually a lot busier.

After years of shooting a wide variety of firearms, I recently attained my LTC and wanted to…read morereceive some formal pistol training to improve my skills and overall competence with with my everyday carry pistol. 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.

After being on the range a couple of times I was bitten by the bug and knew I was on my way to becoming an enthusiast. I wanted to learn the critical safety rules, basic shooting fundamentals, and what is required to be a responsible gun owner, and I wanted to learn from the best. I also wanted a professional instructor who I can train and skill build with on an on-going basis. I researched heavily and found Mike. Mike is an exceptional professional instructor with outstanding communication skills. He's patient, approachable, easy to talk to -- and just a really nice guy! Mike took me to purchase my first pistol to ensure it would fit my hands properly and that I'd feel comfortable using it. Choosing the right gun matters! I spent a full day at the private range completing the NRA basic pistol course with him. It is an excellent foundational course. Mike sets a high bar and instilled confidence in me, the best part was seeing how much I improved over the course of the day. Next up for me with Mike is shot gun and rifle basics, followed by a variety of other tactical and practical shooting classes and closed quarter combat. If you want the best, go to Mike.
