We joined the intro to Slaughter Penn Trails ride on a Saturday morning and it was fantastic!…read more Scott was a fantastic guide. We learned about the history of the trails, got lots of tips and information about the trails for future rides. We passed and greeted so many of the Bike School students and parents out on the trails. We also stopped and chatted with the incoming season coaches who were out having some training. What a great organization with a fantastic mission. Please check them out whether you live here or are just visiting. Note: There isn't a physical location. They just exist online and on the trails.

When I contacted Jon from Nighthawk Custom Training, I had no idea what to expect. I had wanted to…read moretake MAG40 for some time. I had listened to a couple of different podcasts where Jon Hodoway was the guest speaker. Jon seemed to have a good sense of humor. One particular thing stood out to me, when Jon stated his opinion it was drawn from a solid knowledge base. He wasn't afraid if it wasn't popular at the time or the current training trend. He would give a "I do this particular thing and this is why" no dressing applied, I liked that. At the same time Jon (and Mas) would teach you a couple (or more) of different techniques and explain, find the one that works for you, not the "here is one technique and it's the best so use it" mentality. The entire training event was well planned and had accommodations very well in order for us. From the hotel arrangements to the great food around NW Arkansas. Everything went very smooth. One thing I noticed about Jon, he went out of his way to make sure everyone at the class had anything they needed to be comfortable, from ammo to aspirin. The staff at the range made sure everything was conducted in a safe, controlled learning manner. They shot the course before we did not only can they teach it but they can perform it. The Nighthawk factory was interesting and educational. The Nighthawk guns are really an awesome, working piece of artwork. All the people there were like the rest of the good folks from that area. You can see the Nighthawk people are very passionate about their work making the BEST firearm possible. At the class Massad Ayoob delivers a wealth of knowledge. Even at the breaks we would continue to absorb information from him. He has a great sense of humor and makes a wonderful educator. I'm not sure you can put a number to the amount of people he has helped through one media or another. As I believe Jon said, if there is only one training class you could take MAG40 should be it. Another great blessing to Nighthawk Custom Training is the photographer Kim. I never considered how difficult it would be to take pictures while you are trying to learn. Kim does an awesome job with the camera. She seems to have a natural eye for making some wonderful shots better than I could ever hope to take. Kim's work with the lens is a great way to document the training memories. Oh, she also has great eye for cool vehicles too. In conclusion, the entire experience is a wonderful way to spend four or five days with some very good people. They offer training that truly makes you a better shooter. All the best, Jim Maloy

Last year when I took this course, I had never fired a gun before and was, in fact, VERY anti-gun…read more However, Professor Cale and his team taught me not only how to use the weapon safely, but how to respect the weapon and how practical it truly is! I came home and immediately got my license, purchased a firearm, and was at the gun range working to improve my shot. This year, my accuracy improved dramatically and I'm even more fired up than before!! (Pun intended ) I have been a martial arts instructor for over 20 years and have spent much of that time teaching students how to disarm firearms, all the while not having any idea how to operate one myself! This course is an absolutely a MUST-DO for all instructors who wish to expand their knowledge of self-defense. Professor Cale's team of experts do a top-notch job of keeping everyone safe while at the same time having an absolute blast! I will be back every year!!!

I was treated as everyone else from the experienced seasoned martial art students to the noobies. When I thought I was going to pass out and die they encouraged me and told me I was doing a great job and that I could do it. They made me feel strong and capable. You've got to start somewhere and here they will encourage you to do the best you can. Even though this was the toughest work out I've ever experienced in my life I'm excited to come back next class and see how much further I can push myself. I definitely recommend all you ladies and gents that feel like you couldn't possible do it come and give this place a chance.
