How To Choose A Good Frontsight Instructor

By Mayra Pierce


Aiming and shooting the target without missing is something that needs technique and a lot of training. Looking for the right trainer to train you in frontsight can make the difference of being a good shooter, a great shooter or just a shooter who can't hit targets. The trainer is the one who determines how the student will be in shooting.

While there are plenty of trainers out there that claim to be the best, there are many differences between a good one and a terrible one. A dedicated student must always try to find the best instructor they can, for this will also make all of the difference between becoming a good shooter and a bad one. A great instructor will gladly give you a list of their qualifications and achievements, so always ask for this first.

Leading by example is a quality that only great instructors possess. There are plenty of instructors that will tell students how to do certain tasks, but will have difficulties performing them themselves. Such an instructor should be avoided at all costs, as they will not be able to help you improve your skills.

A motivated person who has the desire to pass on all the knowledge and skills they have in shooting is the person who will make the right instructor. You have no use with a person who holds something back during training and seems less concerned on your progress. The desire to do it aside, the person should possess the ability to put into action the desire for best results.

Another characteristic that a good instructor possesses is patience. A good instructor understands that the student might still be learning, and might feel overwhelmed with the information given to him or her. A good instructor knows that the student will most likely make mistakes, but is patient and understanding when that happens. The instructor should not place additional pressure on the student.

A great instructor has a set list of tasks they want their students to reach. A written list of goals that is achievable by the students not only gives them a sense of direction, it also encourages them to compare themselves based on how they were performing before. A good instructor recognizes that students require step-by-step instruction, instead of random lessons.

A good trainer must have good posture and authoritative voice which gives him the sense of control to students. The kind of vocabulary he uses should also be appropriate for good rapport with the students. These qualities help students focus on the training and listen to anything that the instructor says. A meek instructor will have problem controlling the students, hence, not a good choice.

The subject at hand is quite serious, and a good instructor should take it as such. An instructor that cares about his or her students will develop a truthful and respectful relationship with them. A good instructor should only worry about helping the students improve their skills and reach their goals.
