SUMMARY:10/10/26 - Stop The Bleed® & USCCA Treating Gunshot Wounds
DESCRIPTION:Be the help until help arrives. Our Blended Stop the Bleed® & USCCA Treating Gunshot Wounds class gives you the confidence and skill to take immediate\, life-saving action when seconds count. This hands-on course blends proven trauma care techniques with practical\, scenario-based training. You will learn everything from applying tourniquets and wound packing to managing shock—so you’re prepared to protect yourself\, your loved ones\, or fellow range-goers in any emergency. \nThe number 1 cause of preventable death after injury is bleeding. That’s why we want to train you how to STOP THE BLEED®. This class blends techniques from Stop the Bleed with USCCA treating gunshot wounds. Class will include classroom presentation as well as hands on practice for assessing and treating all types of bleeding including gunshot wounds. \nWhy Learn?\n\nA bleeding injury can happen anywhere.

Instead of being a witness\, you can become an immediate responder because you know how to STOP THE BLEED®. \nWhat You’ll Gain from the Course\n\nThe person next to a bleeding victim may very well be the one who’s most likely to save him or her from bleeding to death. By learning how to STOP THE BLEED®\, you’ll gain the ability to recognize life-threatening bleeding and act quickly and effectively to control bleeding once you learn three quick techniques. Take the STOP THE BLEED® training course and become empowered to make a life or death difference when a bleeding emergency happens.

SUMMARY:10/16/26 - Advanced Pistol Skills with Tatiana Whitlock
DESCRIPTION:CLICK HERE TO ENROLL\n  \nADVANCED PISTOL SKILLS \nThis course is for the shooter who already owns the basics; solid marksmanship\, dependable reloads\, routine malfunction clearing\, and a practiced holster draw. If you’re comfortable on the line and hungry for next-level challenges\, this class will make your pistol skills indestructible. Through some of Tatiana’s signature drill sets like the Compass Drill and building into the Tempest\, you’ll train to solve problems faster\, shooting from either hand. Make your gun an extension of a decision you’ve already made\, not the obstacle between you and it. \n  \nWHAT YOU’LL LEARN\n Ambidextrous Performance – Shoot\, reload\, and clear malfunctions with either hand.\n One-Handed Fight Skills – Manage reloads\, malfunctions\, and target engagement effectively when only one hand is available.\n Progressive Drill Sets (Assessment → Compass → Tempest) – Move through structured progressions that escalate stress\, speed\, and complexity.\n Dry Fire to Live Fire Integration — Use focused dry-fire practice to ingrain mechanics\, then validate under live fire with expert coaching. \nAdvanced Pistol Skills is not a beginner’s course – it’s designed for shooters who are already comfortable with handgun fundamentals\, and should you choose\, holster skills. This hands-on\, high-impact course is designed for experienced semi-auto shooters ready to elevate resilience\, versatility\, and confidence with their pistols. Expect precise coaching\, demanding drills\, and measurable improvement you can take to the range\, and any situation. \nEQUIPMENT\n●Working semi-automatic handgun (preferably centerfire) \n● 300 rounds factory FMJ (bring more if you want extra live-fire repetitions) \n● Minimum of two (2) magazines; 3+ magazines strongly recommended \n● PPE: Eye & ear protection\, personal med kit \n● IWB/OWB holster (see note below) & magazine pouch(s) \n● Sturdy gun belt \n● Cleaning kit & lubricant \n● High-collared shirt\, cover/concealment garment (bring multiple options)\, base layers or compression garments recommended for comfort when working from concealment holsters \n● Closed-toe shoes required; brimmed ball cap recommended but not required \nNOTE: For safety during live fire\, bra holsters\, soft side-collapsible holsters\, cross-draw\, Serpa\, ankle\, off-body\, and behind-the-back holsters are NOT allowed. \n“I’ve been shooting for years\, but Advanced Pistol Skills took me to the next level. The drills were tough but eye-opening\, and Tatiana’s coaching was spot-on. By the end of the day\, I was confidently handling the gun with either hand and fixing problems on the fly.” — James L. \n  \nREGISTRATION POLICIES & TERMS\nRANGE FEE: $30 payable to Howell’s Gun Shop for any participant that is NOT already a Howell’s member.\nNO VIDEO POLICY! To protect the privacy and learning experience of your fellow students we have adopted a strict NO VIDEO policy during class.\nTERMS: By completing enrollment in this event you confirm that you have read and agree Tatiana Whitlocks Terms of Sale & Event Policies.\nNOTE: This is a hosted course\, registrations are made directly with the guest instructor.
