Jeff is an excellent instructor, providing the information in an easily digestible manner, while also keeping you engaged. He takes the time to answer everyone's questions and does so in a non-judgmental fashion. I've encountered some teachers (not specific to firearms training) that discourage questions simply by their responses, Jeff is the opposite. It's evident that Jeff has a gift and passion for teaching. The shooting portion of our class was done at Centershot in Dorr. It's a little bit of a drive, but it's a great indoor facility (I'll do a separate review for them soon) If you're looking for quality instruction, whether it be the first steps or CPL class, Defensive Shooting Skills should be at the top of your list. One last thing I also want to mention is that they are VERY responsive to inquiries, something that seems be an afterthought with some of the other places in the area that offer training classes.

The owners Dave and Mike have got to be the nicest, most helpful guys I told them what I was looking for and they found me the best choice of gun for my needs, I bought a Glock 21 with no idea of how it works and within 20 mins with these guys I felt very confident about all I needed to know about the gun. I am from Detroit where there are 1000s of gun shops and yet I can't wait to go back to this store to buy another one. Thank you Mike and Dave and see you guys next week.

Hands down, the best firearm experience I have ever had. Larry and Marjorie are passionate about…read morewhat they do, and it is very clear when you meet them and go through a course. You can easily start as a newbie and over time become a skilled shooter with the classes at Lone Cedar. Larry has SUCH incredible knowledge with firearms, he knows when to challenge you and when to let you take it all in. I took the handgun fundamentals class, and all I can say is TAKE THE DANG CLASS. I've shot before here and there over the years, thought I knew what I was doing....and it's like this was the glue I needed to put everything together. Larry makes it such a relaxed and safe environment, so that theres ZERO intimidation...I felt comfortable to ask whatever questions I had. He is such a natural and great instructor. He could tell when the gears were turning in my head, when all pieces were coming together and didn't rush to the next topic. He gave me the time to process things, just naturally, which really increased my confidence. He could instantly tell where I would hit on a target without even going to a range with me, and he was 100% spot on. He made suggestions and corrections without making me feel stupid or dumb. I can't say enough great things about him! I wanted to be comfortable with a firearm without a male with me, and I completely am now. I can now easily go to the range myself, be safe, and use the tools Larry taught in the course to challenge myself confidently. This class was critical to my success as a shooter, to build my confidence at the range, to increase my safely handling any firearm, to confidently purchase a new firearm, and left me wanting to enroll in another course right then and there. If you're on the fence about taking the course before your CPL class, just do it. It helps bring everything together, and helps you build a SOLID foundation. I can't say enough good things about Lone Cedar Training Center, Larry, and Marjorie. Lone Cedar Training Center will absolutely be my #1 recommendation to all of my family and friends, and we'll heck anyone who will listen.... Do yourself a favor, just book the class or give them a call!

The RSO had stopped to assess the situation and ask the shooter to leave - firmly but professionally. That's something that as a regular range shooter I wish I saw more often. I've never seen a hot range there without a RSO, and they've always been making sure that everyone is shooting safely - and I absolutely appreciate it.
