SUMMARY:KODIAK - Handguns for Bear Defense
DESCRIPTION:This course focuses on helping you build a personal process applicable to your context for effective bear defense with the handgun platform.\nYou’ll gain knowledge of what elements are necessary for bear defense\, which calibers or ammo types are most successful\, and what options offer you the best odds relative to your context.\nAdditionally\, you’ll work to build or refresh a solid foundation as you focus on stance\, grip\, and how you manage recoil to place effective impacts under pressure. \nIn this course we detail safe holster presentations\, strategic shot placement and establish why\, we stress shooting angles\, safe lanes of fire\, situational awareness\, and surgical precision\, helping you become the most prepared line of defense for yourself and for those you love. Also covered are the state requirements for reporting DLP situations\, and a strenuous course of fire to help you understand your boundaries when it comes to bear defense with the handgun platform. \nThough other types of guns may be “better” for bear defense\, we’re aware that handguns are the most carried bear defense option\, and also the platform with the steepest learning curve. We’re looking forward to addressing this topic together and helping your existing handgun skillset advance to the next level making you more aware\, and a more prepared defender. Enjoy peace of mind and a safer adventure season with this valuable knowledge on board! \n  \nRegister for this course in person or over the phone at Kodiak Tactical  \n  \n
