Statistics
and common sense show us that most real life confrontations with
handguns occur at close distances and are over very quickly. The
time available to successfully hit the adversary is determined
by the actions of the adversary, not by how much time the
shooter feels he or she needs to execute the shot.
Most
conventional firearms instruction with handguns has focused on
what we call "Precision Shooting". In Precision Shooting, the
target, the shooter, and the weapon are stabilized before the
shooting cycle even begins. The shooting cycle incorporates a
very controlled press motion of the trigger while the sights of
the weapon remain aligned. Shooters trained in this method
historically have not faired well in actual gun battles.
To train
for success under real life time conditions, Bill Rogers
developed a training program and a high speed moving target
system. The program replicates the minimal amount of time a
shooter will have to successfully neutralize an adversary. Using
this system, the Rogers Shooting School specializes in teaching
students to successfully engage and hit small reactive targets
that are moving and only exposed for a fraction of a second. We
call this type of shooting skill, "Reactive Shooting". Unlike
conventional target and training systems, the shooter must react
to the target's exposure, and successfully shoot it down in the
time the target is available. Like in a real life battle,
sometimes the targets require multiple hits before going down.
This training reinforces the critical skill of “following
through”. We have refined the target system and training
program for the last 25 years and have proven year after year
that no other facility can compete with us for this type of
training. That is why special military and police units are
sent to the Rogers Shooting School from all over the world!
Even
though many private and government agencies have purchased or
copied our target system and instructional philosophy, they
still cannot compete with our experience. If you only have a
couple of minutes to study our web, click on the
"Information" page for an overview of our operation and the
"Testimonial" page to see what our former students say about
us.
We
instruct
groups such as Military units or police SWAT units and we
also offer a limited number of classes for
individuals
who can legally possess a firearm. Check our
Schedule for available classes.
Our
shooting school is located in Ellijay, Georgia but our
administrative office is in Jacksonville, Florida. Please
see our other pages for additional information. We do not offer
brochures nor do we offer detailed information until we receive
a signed
form from a customer. If you need personal attention in a
matter concerning the school, please phone us at 904-642-7810 or
