Shooting Aces

Kris Hayden founded Shooting Aces after serving as a Combat Marine (2007-2011, including a tour in Afghanistan). He brings three core principles to every class:

1. Be fundamentally sound – Master the basics before anything else 2. Buy and train with what works for you – No dogma, just practical skill-building 3. Be always in the mindset for learning more – Training never stops

His credentials speak for themselves: NRA Basic Pistol Instructor, NRA Chief Range Safety Officer, Texas Level 3 and Level 4 Instructor, U.S. LawShield CCIC, plus martial arts training in boxing, kickboxing, wrestling, and Muay Thai.

LTC Class covers gun laws, situational awareness tactics, self-defense scenarios, and firearm proficiency. Note: This is not a beginner class. Schedule a fundamentals session first if you're new to shooting.

Shooting Aces doesn't maintain its own range. Instead, they partner with affiliate facilities across Texas, which means:

• •No membership fees required for students
• •Flexibility to teach near Dallas, Houston, Shreveport, or wherever works for you
• •Resources go to instruction quality, not property maintenance
• •If a partner range closes, they reschedule at another facility or refund you

Offerings extend beyond live fire:

• •Online LTC courses through Texas Carry Academy and U.S. LawShield
• •First Aid for Gunshot Wounds (online, U.S. LawShield)
• •Pepper Spray Training (online, U.S. LawShield)
• •Corporate workshops and speaking engagements
• •One-on-one consultations for personalized guidance
• •Gun store navigation advice – How to compare models, understand legalities, find what works for you

"Kris treats every client as an opportunity to give the best experience for those interested in self defense, firearm classes, situational awareness and one-on-one consultations."
