Scott Puckett has been my firearms instructor for several years. I have taken many private classes with him, as well as a good number of his public, group classes. Scott is an excellent instructor. He always ensures that safety is top priority. He tailors his classes to the needs of the individual or individuals he is working with and has a straightforward teaching style offering praise and encouragement when appropriate, combined with constructive criticism when needed. Scott explains what he wants students to do, demonstrates the drill, & then has the student perform it. He keeps everything safe and enjoyable but will push for increased performance when the student is showing greater proficiency. I have tremendous respect and admiration for Scott, both as a coach and as a man.

I recommend training with Scott for your firearm and self-protection training. He is professional and knowledgeable regarding a variety of firearm and self-defense tools and techniques. As a beginner, I have scratched the surface of his knowledge and skillsets. He welcomes all people who are eager and willing to learn new skills. For the beginner, he creates a welcoming and safe environment. He will meet-you-where-you-are to build your confidence and competence. I have personally trained with Scott for basic firearm carry-to-draw introduction. On the range, he is in control and aware of all students creating a controlled and safe environment to learn. His knowledge runs much deeper and with vast experience in both law enforcement, protection, and military training. He can strengthen the skills of students who are much more advanced as well. There are other skillsets he can train including combatives and defensive driving. Scott is generous in sharing his tools and knowledge, answering questions during and outside of class. He has a passion for developing both professionals who are active in the field or regular American citizens who want to gain knowledge for personal growth.

Several years ago I began looking for training opportunities to grow as a shooter. I had prior firearms experience but wanted to take it to the next level. I met Scott and have been training with him for 2.5 years now. I have never been disappointed in a training session and have markedly improved both my skill and confidence levels. His knowledge and experience is evident and I cannot recommend his services enough. It is money well spent.
