I like Texas Pistol Academy at Sherman a lot... in part because it is only about 90 minutes from home.
FWIW

They wanted to own their own property and they chose Oregon so Heidi would be close to her family, if anything happened to Clint.explr2live wrote:Any idea of why TR left Texas in the first place??

One of the instructors (not Clint) once told me that prior to the announcement in 2003 that they would be moving to Oregon, only about 10-15% of their students were from Texas. After the announcement it ran about 60% for a year or so. Every class I attended had a large majority of non-Texans, except for the last year.
I miss TR being in Texas; the mere 5 hour drive was great. However, with the smaller classes in Oregon, Clint is with you 100% of the time and that's great! So, it's a different location, but the same great people and classes.
