Title: Ohio based "basic quality hand gun training"
Post by: Blueangel on August 23, 2011, 12:00:33 PM

I am tired of reading of all the shooting schools and training facilities out west is there no quality training school here in OHIO? Recommendations welcomed.  ???

Yes there is a quality school in your area or close...now if I could only think of the name!!!  Ah yes, TDI or Tactical Defense Institute.  Check out their web site.  tdiohio.com

I know a couple of their instructors and they are top flight.  Haven't had money to take any training because I am retired and have been in bad health for a while but would not hesitate and no, I am not getting paid to push them.


Good luck,

Richard

Check out Ken Hackathorn. He is based out of Washington county. Southeastern Dry Goods has a pretty good instructor also.

Thanks, Don... Yep.. I am living in Ohio now. You'll see more training on the schedule from me in the midwest over the next year too!  Black Wing Shooting Center in Delaware, Briar Rabbit in Zanesville, possibly some others.

Love to see you at a class!

Ohio is getting pretty strong. 3 quality schools. Makes me wish I was still in Columbus.

Welcome to Ohio Rob from up in the NE near Akron (Ravenna actually).  Used to do a little traveling down to Ken Hakathorn country but stay pretty close to home most of the time these days.  Check out Fin, Feather and Fur (on line) near Ashland, Ohio for a great all around store and Kames near Canton also.

FWIW
