You Suck! It's Not The Gun!®
Class Flow: RELAXED (students can expect a slow pace as we focus on the fundamentals of shooting as a team)
YSINTG® | You Suck! It’s Not the Gun!® is our core firearms class. Developed after witnessing scores of shooters blaming their pistol sights for missing their intended targets, YSINTG shows how focusing on and practicing the core fundamentals of shooting will greatly improve the marksmanship of any shooter regardless of skill level.
This class takes pistol shooting back to the basics. In an attempt to focus on the defensive use of a handgun, many classes do not focus a great deal of time on the ability to place a bullet precisely where the shooter wants it to go. This class is aimed at fixing that. After this class, most students show drastic improvement in their pistol shooting accuracy.
This is a great class for new shooters or experienced shooters that need to go back and refresh on the fundamentals. “YSINTG” is one of our most popular courses, and it the course most repeated by our students!

Seriously folks - this class is probably the best long-term value on the books. It can turn every range trip into continuing education instead of just putting holes in paper.

I've been shooting for a looooong time, but I've never been very good at it. I attended YSINTG with my brother and can't believe the improvement I saw after just ~100 rounds down range. Now I have the fundamentals to build on in future classes. I'll sign up for the Foundation courses as soon as the spring schedule gets posted!

Recently attended YSINTG for the second time, two-and-a-half years since the first time I took it. I had taken a lot of other, further-advanced training since that first time, and decided I wanted to come back to the fundamentals. This class is for everyone at every skill level! Whether you're just starting out on your guncraft journey, an experienced training and personal protection afficionado, or an armed citizen who wants to ensure they are applying the utmost responsibility with your life-saving tools, YSINTG is always an anchor point.

I cannot recommend this class enough! It is not just for beginners. Shooters of any level will benefit from this class! It takes wherever you're at, and helps you improve. You WILL become a more accurate shooter by the end of this class. Trek and team provide a safe, fun, and ego free environment as well as top notch education. Take this class! You won't regret it.

Great class! Very fun and knowledgeable. They take the time to get you headed in the right direction. Even better is they give all the tools to help you keep improving on your own. I look forward to taking more classes with Trek and his crew. Thank you guys for the help.

Coming Into this class with some Training, I knew I need to get my Foundation Square. You suck not the gun proved that I know what it takes for ME to be a better shooter at my age and skill lvl. Thanks Trek and Crew.

Highly recommend everyone take this class. No matter how much you shoot, it NEVER hurts to go back to fundamentals. The way Trek goes over the hows and whys really sets this class apart from anything I have ever seen.

I was lucky enough to attend the MDFI class called "You suck it's not the gun”. I don't think we had anyone in our class that didn't have a marked improvement.
I would highly recommed this class for all shooters, new and experenced, as it does not matter how long you have been shooting, it is ALWAYS a good idea to spend time on fundamentals. Trek does a great job explaining everything, and keeps the class light and fun, and ego free. You're there to learn, not to try to show up your neighbor.

Thanks again for a great class this weekend. My girlfriend and I really enjoyed it, and learned a lot. Your attitude and sense of humor was a breath of fresh air for me as a vet (and former industry member) that is burned out on all the tactical peacocking. You balance professionalism and credibility, with a geniuine realness and humor incredibly well.
You and your cadre really made my girlfriend feel special, and like you wanted to help her learn, and even laugh. She is really sensitive to egos and self centered people, and had it been another class where that is the norm, her growth in this discipline would have stopped yesterday.
I'm going to continue to urge family and friends who have one foot in the door, but haven't taken developing their skills seriously yet, now that I know there is a safe an informative place for me to send them. I look forward to training with you in the future. You are a great ambassador to the industry, and this lifestyle.
