Get Your Edge Back. Build the Next Level.
You’ve already trained with Lead Instructor Curtis Harwell and The Carry Guy Firearms Shooting Academy.
You know how different it feels to shoot with real coaching instead of guessing on your own.
But shooting is a perishable skill — and the world isn’t getting any safer.
The Alumni Tune-Up is designed specifically for past Carry Guy students who want to sharpen skills, fix bad habits, and push toward true defensive confidence.
Why Come Back for an Alumni Tune-Up?
Most gun owners:
- Take one class
- Shoot a little on their own
- Slowly lose the skill and discipline they paid for
Our alumni do something different.
In this focused session you will:
- Knock the rust off your fundamentals
Refresh grip, stance, sight picture, and trigger control so your shots land where they should — on demand.
- Clean up bad habits
We spot the little things that creep in over time: milking the grip, jerking the trigger, riding the recoil, sloppy draws, slow reloads.
- Add realistic defensive skills
We build on your previous training with practical drills: one-handed shooting, movement, controlled pairs, timed work at real-world distances.
- Update your mindset & the law
Quick refresh on South Carolina self-defense concepts so your decisions are as solid as your shooting.
This isn’t a “beginner class.”
It’s for people who’ve already put in the work and are ready to refine it.
Who This Tune-Up Is For
- Past CWP, Basic Handgun, or Defensive Pistol students at The Carry Guy
- Gun owners who haven’t trained in a while and feel a little rusty
- Carriers who want more than just punching holes in paper
- Alumni who are ready to move toward intermediate or advanced training
If you’ve ever thought, “I know I should get back in a class,”
this tune-up is built for you.
What We’ll Work On
A typical Alumni Tune-Up block includes:
- Safety refresh & warm-up strings
- Accuracy tune-up at realistic defensive distances
- Draw-stroke drills from the holster
- Recoil control and follow-through
- One-handed shooting (strong & support)
- Simple reloads / malfunction clearances appropriate to your level
- Measured drills with timers to show real progress
Everything is coached in the typical Carry Guy style:
calm, clear, respectful, and focused on helping you win in the real world, not just on the square range.
