LTC Preparation Course Helps Shooters Build Confidence Ahead of Texas License to Carry Training
A focused one-hour LTC Preparation Course is designed to help participants build the knowledge, skills, and confidence required before attending the full Texas License to Carry (LTC) class. The program serves as an introductory step for individuals seeking clarity on the LTC process and what to expect during both classroom instruction and the shooting qualification test.
The course provides a clear overview of key requirements, including target distances, scoring standards, and the structure of the official proficiency exam. In addition, it reinforces essential handgun fundamentals such as stance, grip, sight alignment, breathing control, and trigger discipline, helping participants strengthen their core shooting abilities.
A central component of the session is hands-on practice for the LTC shooting qualification. Participants fire a total of 50 rounds under simulated test conditions—20 rounds at 3 yards, 20 rounds at 7 yards, and 10 rounds at 15 yards—allowing them to become familiar with timing, accuracy expectations, and range procedures.
Students are required to bring their own firearm and ammunition, or they may use a rental option with on-site purchase available. Eye and ear protection, along with basic note-taking materials, are recommended. This preparatory course is designed to reduce test anxiety and improve readiness, giving participants a strong foundation before completing the full LTC certification process.

Customer Reviews
I took the online course for License To Carry and the proficiency demonstration with Joel and was very happy with my experience. The online course was great and informative, and Joel was extremely skilled and knowledgeable when at the range. Any questions I had were answered with ease. I've referenced Joel's courses and demonstrations with several people in my orbit as he's a fantastic resource. I appreciate his communication when I had any follow up questions and look forward checking out more courses with him.
I recently completed the Online Texas License to Carry a Handgun Class through Texas Online LTC and followed up with the Proficiency Demonstration with Joel at Staccato Ranch. As someone with over 25 years of experience carrying a firearm with the U.S. Secret Service and having undergone extensive firearms training throughout my career—including in the military and with elite law enforcement professionals—I can confidently say that Joel is an exceptional instructor, on par with the very best. From the beginning, Joel demonstrated a remarkable level of professionalism, patience, and knowledge. He answered all my questions promptly and thoroughly, ensuring I felt prepared and informed every step of the way. Joel’s ability to tailor his instruction to both beginners and experienced shooters alike is truly impressive. The Proficiency Demonstration was outstanding. Joel provided clear, detailed guidance during the safety overview and range instruction, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and confident. His emphasis on safety and technique stood out, making it an invaluable experience regardless of your skill level. The facility at Staccato Ranch was top-notch—well-maintained and equipped to handle everything required for the proficiency testing. It’s the perfect environment to learn and qualify for your Texas License to Carry (LTC). I also purchased the online course for two family members, and they joined me for the proficiency demonstration. Joel’s ability to teach a group with varying levels of experience was seamless, and we all left feeling confident and better prepared. Whether you’re just starting out or have years of experience, I highly recommend Texas Online LTC and Joel for your licensing needs. Joel’s professionalism, expertise, and ability to connect with students set him apart as one of the best instructors I’ve worked with. Thank you to Joel and the team for an outstanding experience! - Jim Thrift Retired U.S. Secret Service
Had a great experience working through this class. Signed up with Jim Burkhart and he called me before I started taking the class and gave me a rundown of what to expect. All of the vital information is covered as well as the little things that not everyone would think about or have on their radar. Went and did the practical shooting with Jim after the class was complete and was extremely pleased with that as well. Between this course and Jim' Burkhart's direction everything was very straightforward and I was successful in obtaining my LTC in a timely manor.
