There are a lot of good schools and trainers out there. None of them have the Holy Grail but a lot of them have pieces of it. Go up to the sticky thread about Training Schools List and look at them. Find a few schedules that work for you and then research those schools/instructors. If they seem to have what you want and you have heard good things then go get training. For the most part the more training the better. Personally I have trained with Paul Howe of http://www.combatshootingandtactics.com a few times, Rob Haught of http://www.10-8consulting.com, and Pat Goodale of http://www.pgpdt.com. They were all really good classes and can reccomend them. In two weeks I am taking a class from Jeff Gonzales of http://www.tridentconcepts.com and having shot with him before I am excited for it.

So find some convenient schedules, look at their resumes, and then see what type of feedback you can get from other students that have taken classes. Then go buy a bunch of ammo and go train.
