      "Kenny was an excellent instructor. The way he broke down everything into simple concepts really improved my shooting by the end of the class! His hands on approach and ability to really spot what I was doing while shooting and correct things I didn’t even realize I was doing wrong really went far to making me a better shooter. Will definitely be a returning customer!"
