SUMMARY:John Hearne- Cognitive Pistol- Sept 25th
DESCRIPTION:**Eventbrite link at bottom left of this page** \nCOGNITIVE PISTOL W/ TACTICAL ANATOMY \n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\n\nThis course emphasizes thinking with the pistol and is intended for intermediate and advanced shooters. The course will feature a series of drills with increasing complexity that will make the shooter think while running their pistol. The course uses turning targets\, steel targets\, and 3-D targets to create challenges. The use of visual start signals and the need to process visual information before shooting is emphasized. The goal is to make the shooter work and solve problems under “cognitive load” or “task load” instead of raw technical shooting skill. \nAnother teaching tool in this process is the use of tactical anatomy. Tactical anatomy teaches the shooter how to place the most effective fight stopping hits under the reality of three-dimensional targets. The class will feature anatomically correct\, three-dimensional targets that must be engaged correctly and under realistic time limits. \nRound Count: Minimal round count is ~200 rounds. Some portions of the course allow for extra shooting based on the student’s interest\, ability\, and ammunition availability. Up to 250 rounds could be fired in the course but are not required. \nPre-Requisites: Students need to already be competent and safe gun handlers. They must be able to load/unload\, present/reholster safely\, perform reloads\, reduce malfunctions\, etc. \nWhile anyone capable of safely running their handgun will benefit from the class\, the most benefit will be achieved by those who can already shoot well. Since accurate shooting will be emphasized – the ability to place 5 rounds in a 5” circle from five yards in less than five seconds is the recommended\, but not required\, standard. \nTuition includes all range fees. \nNOTE: Eventbrite calculates and collects the sales tax it deems applicable. Sorry\, but we do not have any control over this.

SUMMARY:John Hearne- Who Wins\, Who Loses and Why?- Sept 24th
DESCRIPTION:**Eventbrite link at bottom left of this page** \nCutting edge lecture on human performance under extreme circumstances \n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\n\nHuman performance under stress isn’t a new topic.  What makes this presentation different is the recency of the research and the presenter’s background.  Some of the works in this area are over 25 years old and don’t reflect the most recent discoveries in the field.  This presentation uses the latest findings from a wide variety of fields to offer the best understanding of the topic currently available.  In addition to new research\, considerable time is spent debunking erroneous myths that have been circulated for years. \nJohn Hearne brings the unique perspective of someone who has been a sworn peace officer since 1992\, a successful competitive shooter\, and a firearms/tactics instructor since 2001.  He has an academic background having earned a Masters Degree in Criminal Justice with a concentration in Research Methods and is a published author in peer-reviewed journals and popular books. His background helps him translate the current research into clear\, easily understood material with practical ways to implement it and improve performance. \nTopics covered in the presentation include: \n\n\n\nOrigins of the Human Animal and Implications\nHow the Human Brain Functions\nEmotional Control in High Stress Environments\nCommon Misconceptions Addressed\nHeart Rate as Destiny\nTask Complexity Relevancy\nMyth: Natural Responses Are Better\nStartle Reflex Realities\nThe Innate Hesitation to Kill?\nFront Sight Focus – Is It Possible\nDebunking Hick’s Law\nThe Truth About Fine and Gross Motor Skills\nWhy Recency Matters\nSearch for the Perfect Combative Substitute\nOther Relevant Research\nNot Getting Shot by First Responders\nTrigger Realities and Negligent Discharges\nValue of Physical Fitness\nUnderstanding Eye Dominance\nRelevant Standards\nBest Ways to Practice & Train\n\n\n\n  \nAttendees will receive a detailed copy of the notes for future reference. \nTuition includes facilities use fees. \nReview: https://americancop.com/performance-under-fire-who-wins-who-dies-and-why/
