Low Speed High Drag - Arm Yourself With Knowledge!
Have you have ever found yourself at the shooting range, trying to keep all of those rounds in the center of the target, only to become frustrated at your ability? Have you ever found yourself asking: "Is it me or the gun?"
If this sounds familiar, we can help.
Low Speed High Drag (LSHD) is a Western Pennsylvania company that provides both individual and group firearms training.
Our company name is a play on the phrase "high speed low drag" commonly associated with elite military and police tactical units. We are the farthest thing from "high speed" - we'll never claim to be able to teach you how to fast rope out of a Blackhawk or take down a structure with your team. If you have a Walter Mitty streak and fantasize about popping smoke and laying down suppressive fire, we're probably not the right choice for you. We don't have any combat or law enforcement experience, but the gun handling and marksmanship training that we offer is rooted in proven combat-oriented and defensive techniques that we've sought out from experienced professionals.
Trainers that have influenced us include (but are not limited to) Larry Vickers, Ken Hackathorn, Pat Goodale, Todd Green, Dave Pennington, Rob Haught, Craig Douglas a.k.a. SouthNarc, John Farnam, "Super" Dave Harrington, Jack Leuba, and Tom Givens.
Our advice to anyone attending your first formal training experience (and thereafter):
- Be comfortable in your own skin.
- Be aware of your lane and try your best to remain within it.
- Don't judge a book by its cover.
- Extend everyone courtesy but reserve your respect for those who earn it.
Providing marksmanship instruction is certainly part of our mission statement, but we feel that it is important to emphasize that knowledge - not a firearm - is the ultimate tool to defend your life or the life of a loved one.
