    Tim Carrol knows what he is doing. Knows how to instruct and get the point across quickly. Left time for any questions through out the day. Just finished a class with him, will be going back for more for sure. Recommend him 100% to anybody looking to better themselves with pistol training. Will review the rifle class soon! Thanks for the class.
