HOSTING MOD
MOD would love to come to you to bring high level training. All we need is a host to coordinate the range and basic range supplies (target stands and sticks). Targets will be mailed before the class. For a 2 day class we will need a minimum of 6 students and for a one day class we will need a minimum of 8. The maximum amount of students will be 18. Once the date has been cleared with MOD and the range, we will help sell the class on the MOD website. You as the host will receive a free spot in the class and you will be encouraged to spread the word to your local shooters. That's it! Email us training@myowndefender.com
