Course Overview
THE FIRE STAGE
Fire does not wait for its target to hold still.
Level 2 put you in motion. Level 3 is Fire: controlled violence, with you and the target both moving.
Shoot a Moving Target teaches you to track a mover, use leads and the ambush technique, and make the hit while your own feet are working.
This is class 01 of 6 on the Handgun Level 3 roadmap. It opens the level, so you should arrive with your Level 2 skills in hand.
