EXCELLENT Based on 62 reviews Posted on Matt DelucaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dave was an excellent instructor. I did a 2 hour private group lesson for handgun training, and after 2 hours I undoubtedly got my money's worth. I wanted to be careful with who I received instruction from. As some instructors can teach bad, outdated, or irrelevant techniques. Dave's military background gives him a unique combination of both gun skills and teaching skills that intertwines into a very productive training session. My fiancé is a new shooter and he did a great job of keeping a low stress environment to build her confidence. We both had drastic increases in accuracy by the end of the session. We will definitely be booking followup sessions in the future.Posted on Adrian ChavezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was a great training experience.Posted on Eric LTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding class. Dave is extremely proficient in conveying concepts and helping you put them into practice. I left the range and OBJECTIVELY better shooter than I was when I walked onto it. Having taken a number of other classes recently, he also stands out for being up-to-date on best practices and using all technologies available to serious shooters and instructors. Highly recommend.Posted on Christen FeltsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Being a women with very little experience, Dave with Triple A Coach was very patient, thorough, and non-judgemental during my one on one training which I scheduled the day before my CHP class. He put me at ease by explaining what we were doing and why, and I left way more comfortable and confident than when I arrived. Plus, it was a blast and we ended with some marksman challenges. Highly recommend Dave!Posted on Kim HiseroteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hi. I participated in a Saturday class. Not much current range time. And I struggled a bit. But the lead instructor was very calm and professional. We spoke and he pulled me aside and hooked me up withe one of his awesome AI. With ALL of the bad out there. Let me say that the skills and techniques that were shared, explained, and demonstrated. And then worked myself and the rest of class through it all. All of the skills and techniques learned were humbling and of great value in making me a safer person. Thank you to all at Triplr A Coach.Posted on AndrewTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dave is an amazing instructor — truly fantastic. I was really impressed by how much my accuracy improved after just one six-hour class. I’ll definitely be back to build on my skills. Special thanks to his assistants for their attention to detail, and constant support throughout the session.Posted on John SavageTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent, professional, knowledgeable…I’ll make the drive from Aurora again for this top notch training. The instructor listened and assessed where I was with my limited skills and I left both a more accurate shot, and do at home exercises. Lots of bad habits built up over years were identified and personally and with good knowledge corrected. Nicely, there were enough complements to make the teaching easier to absorb .Posted on Mark GriffittsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very personal and professional training on deescalation, safety awareness, trigger sensitivity, gun handling and shooting accuracy. I highly recommend for all firearm training!Posted on Keith AlexanderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent class. Dave is a true professional and would definitely recommend. You will see and feel the improvement.
