I can’t recommend HO Optics enough. After struggling with my optics and sight picture for a while, this class was exactly what I needed to regain confidence. Dan is an outstanding instructor—patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping you grasp the material. The course was well-paced, with plenty of hands-on drills that reinforced each lesson and kept things practical and focused. A fantastic experience all around.

Loved this class! Dan went over history & the basics then worked with us on zeroing & how to determine hold over. He showed us how to maximize the utilization of our optics & how to continue to shoot effectively if an optic failure occurs. Much of the class was spent shooting while moving & from different positions which is tremendously valuable to have the opportunity to do. The class moves at a great pace. Each step was covered in depth & Dan gave each of us individual feedback to help us improve our outcomes. I would definitely recommend this class.

Excellent class. I’ve taken several classes that Scott has taught, he always does a great job. He covered history, selecting, mounting and zeroing, also how to use the red dot for both precision and combat. I like the crawl, walk, run teaching method. By the end of the class I was making consistent 15 yd hits unsupported.
