This video discusses the potential downsides of 'chasing par times' with a timer in shooting practice. While timers are valuable for measuring progress and providing motivation, focusing solely on speed can lead to degraded technique, particularly in sight picture acquisition and controlled gun movement. The instructor emphasizes a holistic approach to training, balancing speed with accuracy, consistency, and clean technique.
This video explains how firearms instructor Joel Park tracks his drill times and scores. Instead of a traditional notebook, he prefers using a digital note-taking app like Apple Notes. He records target times for familiar drills and sets specific performance goals for new or challenging exercises, using these notes as benchmarks to gauge progress and maintain accountability during practice sessions.
