What is the PGC Elite Program?

The 2027 application window is OPEN!

The Elite Program is designed for gun-carriers who are serious about training and progressing as practical shooters. If you want to get really good, we know how hard it can be to find the right-minded people to train with. We also know how hard it is to find the right place with the right resources. We’ve been there, we get it, and we’re here to help.

For $150/month with a nine month commitment from March to November, members receive exclusive access to the following benefits:

  1. One guaranteed weekend training day per month at the Hardwick Rod & Gun Club, complete with full USPSA stage work, sample USPSA classifiers, and NO range fees.

  2. 20% off all PGC courses.

  3. 30% off all PGC merchandise.

  4. Access to the members-only group chat.

  5. First pick at registration in new and next year’s “guest instructor” courses.

  6. Industry partner discounts:

    • Wilder Tactical (20% off)

    • 508 Holsters (15% off)

    • AAA Police Supply (10% off)

    • Defensive Dynamics (5% off)

Tentative training days are scheduled for 3/21, 4/25, 5/23, 6/13, 7/25, 8/22, 9/26, 10/24, and 11/7. Once members are selected and training begins, Blake reserves the right to re-schedule training days based on potentially inclement weather and other unforeseen issues that could affect training. In any case, Blake will always work the best he can to accommodate everyone’s schedule.

We will accept (10) committed members for 2027. Please apply to the program by filling out the form below. Selections will be made on Dec. 16th, at which point invoices for payment will be sent directly to each selectee; you’ll have seventy-two hours to submit payment.

If you’ve got questions, reach out directly to our Elite Program Director, Blake Macaruso on Instagram (@_blakemac_) or email us at info@pgctraininggroup.com.
