I have been blessed to learn from the very best. This curriculum is unlike any other. It’s focus lies in discovering the magnificence of the individual. Discovering the strength inside that you never knew was there. Discussing hard truths. What I loved most about this curriculum was hearing the truth. I have taken many courses from many courageous and excellent men but it was this particular curriculum that changed everything for me. The lessons I learned applied across every aspect of my life. Instead of looking for excuses to lose, I learned to instead spend my efforts in finding a way to win; losing my fear and finding faith and hope. It has been quite an adventure since I first met John Farnam. It’s difficult to articulate what that man has given me and what I have been able to give others because of him and his lessons in this curriculum. We want to help and share this knowledge with as many good people as we possibly can. We love watching the transformation of each individual man or woman we get to teach. It is truly incredible to witness. I hope to meet you on the range soon.
