IDPA Instruction and Places to Shoot Near Chicago? Need Advice

[gerrym526]

Guys,

I've been interested in learning how to shoot in IDPA for some time now but haven't been able to find courses/instructors and ranges to practice at in the Chicago suburbs-I'm in the western suburbs.

Would appreciate information on who teaches IDPA techniques, and as importantly, ranges that allow practicing these techniques for competition.

Thanks in advanc for the help.

Though I've not trained with them, I've shot matches alongside TD and Bill and suspect they can provide what you are looking for in terms of instruction / practice opportunity:

Ditto to the above post. They hold many classes at Article 2 Range in Lombard.
