Testimonials

I greatly enjoyed the Shotgun class. The entire Boondocks operation is first class, can't say enough which is unusual for me. I hand out few compliments but you guys deserve it.

I will be back for another class.

Bob

They were both awesome instructors!  ... were the best! Very knowledgeable and very enthusiastic. An asset to the Boondocks Academy.

Laurie

Thank you so much! Tom and I thoroughly enjoyed our class and day at Boondocks. The facility is gorgeous and perfectly suited to its mission. Our instructors were gems and so very knowledgeable, patient and helpful. We look forward to taking advantage of our Alumni status to come out Saturday and Sunday afternoons as well as signing up for the Defensive Pistol series.

Becky

Becky and I were both totally impressed with the entire experience at BFTA.  Neither of us knew that there was such a fine facility anywhere in the area.  We're glad to be "alumni" and will be frequent visitors to your facility... thank you for the photos and for the most excellent experience we had last Saturday.  I would recommend BFTA to anyone without hesitation!

Tom

Amazing! I would take multiple classes with our instructors. Looking to come back!

Kelli

Thank you for the pics... the class was amazing... the instructor opened my eyes a lot.  The whole class was eye opening.   It was great learning experience and y’all continue to impress me and my wife every time we take a class.   

Jonathan

The best experience! I had never shot a gun until getting fit(ted) for today's class. I will be back again.
