    This makes the second class I have registered for so far this year. Wouldn't mind seeing some of you there. My friend and fellow instructor Josh Haines will be there as well. FIST-FIRE is a unique and interesting Defensive Shooting System. Founder D.R. Middlebrooks has called Paul Sharp one of his best instructors. I have no affiliation with Kodiak but am really looking forward to the class. Check the schedule HERE.


    A little about the instructor. Paul is very well known in certain circles, but probably not so much to the general shooting population.

    Like Mike said, I'll be at this one as well. I've trained with Paul twice and both times have been fantastic. I've never met someone who is so nice while being gigantic and physically scary at the same time. If you want someone who can (and does) walk the walk at the highest levels of fitness and strength, weapons, combatives, and mindset there is likely no one better. I've seen the fist-fire material in person and it was impressive enough to want to learn more.
