This drill, 'Paint the Steel,' focuses on efficient position entry and target engagement. It emphasizes predictive shooting by 'painting' the steel target with the sight system as it becomes visible from behind a barrier. The drill aims to improve draw stroke, sight tracking, and immediate firing upon target exposure, with a goal time of low fives.

This guide focuses on improving IDPA stage times by adopting USPSA-inspired techniques. Key strategies include avoiding 'crowding cover' for faster position entry/exit, maintaining balanced stance for efficient transitions, and practicing safe gun handling while moving. The video emphasizes utilizing 'dead time' during draws and reloads, efficient stage planning, and thorough mental rehearsal to achieve subconscious operation and reduce overall stage times.

This video details the 'Ghost Op' drill, a dynamic training exercise for practical shooting. The drill involves setting up cones and engaging targets as you move between them in a ladder-like pattern. It emphasizes rapid position entry, precise indexing, and transitioning between targets under physical exertion, offering a change of pace from more static training methods. The drill is designed to build skills in quick gun acquisition and accurate shooting from various positions.

This video details a crucial technique for competitive shooters, particularly in IDPA and USPSA, focusing on the 'hard lean' around barricades. The instructor emphasizes sinking down into a low, stable position with weight loaded on the outside leg and the inside leg extended for balance, rather than standing up. This method allows for faster transitions and quicker exits from cover.
