DESCRIPTION:

Class Flow: RELAXED (students can expect a slow pace as we focus on the fundamentals of shooting as a team)

YSINTG®  |  You Suck! It’s Not the Gun!® is our core firearms class. Developed after witnessing scores of shooters blaming their pistol sights for missing their intended targets, YSINTG shows how focusing on and practicing the core fundamentals of shooting will greatly improve the marksmanship of any shooter regardless of skill level.

This class takes pistol shooting back to the basics. In an attempt to focus on the defensive use of a handgun, many classes do not focus a great deal of time on the ability to place a bullet precisely where the shooter wants it to go. This class is aimed at fixing that. After this class, most students show drastic improvement in their pistol shooting accuracy.

This is a great class for new shooters or experienced shooters that need to go back and refresh on the fundamentals. “YSINTG” is one of our most popular courses, and it the course most repeated by our students!

I've taken YSINTG 2x. The first time was when I had about 10 years of classes and action pistol experience and the second with about 12 years. I just cannot recommend this class enough for beginners and experienced shooters alike! Focus, focus, focus on the fundamentals at a pace that allows one to do so.

I would highly recommend You Suck It's Not the Gun for all shooters. It taught me valuable info for identifying my issues that hold me back from becoming a better shooter, and I continue to implement MDFI's advice. The instructors were very helpful and supportive, while holding students accountable. I look forward to taking many more classes with MDFI.

Absolutely phenomenal class. Should required for ALL shooters. The instruction was top-notch, well paced, informative and an absolute blast. You will notice an IMMEDIATE improvement in your shooting after taking this class.

My first MDFI class, I really enjoyed the challenge of coming to grips with the fact that I needed more training in relationship to grip, sight picture, and especially trigger pull understanding. Trek and the entire Cadre staff was excellent with personal advice when needed. I will most definitely be back for more training in the near future.

This class is so very well named! Not sure if it is because I am relatively new to shooting a firearm or what, but I left the class kind of discouraged thinking that that the uphill climb to improving my self defense skills was mentally too big for me. All that said, a few days later after the class, clarity came as to what I really needed to focus on over the next couple of months before I took the Foundation Handgun class. The MDFI team did such a great job of focusing on those fundamentals that they quickly came back. It was a great incentive to schedule the next class knowing I needed to get things sorted out. Due to MDFI's training and some diligence on my part I was recently able to pass the "meaningless" qualifier in the Foundation class. The next sets of classes are already scheduled. Thank you Cadre, again and again!
