The clinics are structured so there is a maximum of 4 students per day. The cost is $530.00 each + expenses (Targets & Shells). Days can be arranged with less shooters, so 2 people wishing to have the whole day would cost $1060.00 each or a whole day 1 on 1 with Todd is $2120.00.

To book?a $200.00 deposit is required, with the remainder to be paid no later than 2 weeks before lesson. If you are interested in securing a spot, please express your interest prior to a deadline of 23^rd April. If numbers are not confirmed by that date this opportunity will not come to Canberra.
