Sherif Richardson would like to announce that the DeSoto Parish Sheriff's Office recently hosted Phill Groff with VIGR Training for their "2 Gun Fighting Movements Course."  The course, taking place at our Training Facility, jumped head first into realistic and relevant application of movement principles with both the duty handgun and patrol rifle.  

 

 

 

 

It uses the information obtained from real Law Enforcement Officers lethal force encounters to mold the drills to match realistic movement patterns.  Sheriff Richardson partnered with VIGR Training to donate two of the slots available to Panola County Sheriff's Office in light of a recent tragedy in their county. VIGR (which translates to "Able in Battle") is dedicated to such training so that law enforcement who attend can take what they have learned back to their agencies.  

 

 

 

 

VIGR Training was formed more than 20 years ago to provide relevant, effective, and realistic training.  It has been a great week of training and learning from one another, shared with our law enforcement partners from Panola County Sheriff's Office. We thank Phill Groff with VIGR Training for coming out to instruct everyone in efficiency as we strive to keep our communities safe.
