Recommendation for CHL class/private sessions please

Hi all,
It's been a while since I got my CHL (few years) and I finally convinced my wife to get one too.

Any recommendations for a good class in the Plano area? Perhaps a private session?

I tried looking in the schedule forum but there was only class published there and it was in FW.

Thanks! :tiphat:

On NRA website you can find scheduled classes.

I live in the Houston area so I can't answer your question about an Instructor, but I do have one suggestion. Let your wife take a class with other people present. The class is 10 hours long and I can't imagine just teaching one person. I need people to ask questions. I do senarios. I'm sure she could find a ladies only class in the Dallas area. I think it will be much more enjoyable for her this way. Congratulations on getting her to take the class. My wife has absolutely no desire to take the class and everyone she knows has a CHL. (including our three adult children and their spouses)

That is great that your wife is interested in getting her CHL. My wife is teaching a class on June 15 and it will be held in Lewisville, about 20 miles or so from the center of Plano. I agree that the class is much more enjoyable when there are other members that ask questions and play along. If interested, feel free to visit our website that is below in my signature below. BTW, I grew up in East Plano at the corner of Shilo and Park from 73 - 91.

After reading the OP, I can see where you came up with that line of thinking. I almost deleted my first post thinking I had interpreted the OP incorrectly. I think your interpretation is entirely logical.

Sorry if my original post was not clear enough. I'm looking for recommendations. I can google and find 5-10 classes in a few min. But I want my wife to get a good feeling out of this process and not just "go through it".

I didn't think about the "ladies only" class. I'll suggest it to her and see if it'll be something she wants to do.

Maybe your wife could find a Girl With A Gun group or some other ladies shooting league.
