Baseline Dryfire is out

This guide, from an expert firearms instructor, explains the concept of 'Confirmation 3' aiming and why it's often detrimental in performance shooting. It emphasizes adopting a 'good enough' sight picture for speed and prioritizing reactive shooting for targets beyond 7-10 yards to improve efficiency in competition and tactical scenarios. The instruction is practical and directly applicable to improving shooting speed and effectiveness.

Joel Park, an experienced competitor, details the 'doubles drill' for improving speed and accuracy at various distances. He emphasizes process-oriented training, focusing on vision and grip consistency, and discusses how gear and competition strategy (hit factor) influence performance. Park advises trusting practice during high-pressure matches.

Joel Park, an experienced firearms instructor, emphasizes the importance of focused dry-fire training to improve handgun draw techniques. He advocates for identifying and correcting specific bad habits, such as improper grip pressure or inefficient draw paths, by critiquing each repetition. The core principle is constant, incremental improvement through deliberate practice, focusing on finesse over excessive tension for a more stable sight picture and faster, more accurate first shots.

Expert firearms instructor Ben Stoeger debunks the 'point your thumbs' advice for target transitions, emphasizing that precision is paramount over raw speed. He advocates for the 'Look and Let' technique, where focusing on the target allows the gun to follow naturally. Stoeger advises training for precision first, then incrementally adding speed through par time exercises, while cautioning against the superficiality of some social media shooting demonstrations.

This guide, based on instruction from Joel Park, addresses how practicing rapid fire drills like 'doubles' can negatively impact longer strings such as the 'Bill Drill' due to inconsistent grip and visual focus. It emphasizes maintaining constant grip tension and proper visual tracking to improve accuracy. The advice is geared towards intermediate shooters looking to refine their performance under pressure.

Joel Park, an expert competitive shooter, strongly advises against compensating for shooting errors by aiming away from the common miss. He emphasizes fixing the root cause of the error to avoid developing bad habits and ensure consistent performance. The video demonstrates how to refine technique, particularly during drills like the one-shot return, by minimizing unnecessary input and focusing on natural sight recovery, especially as distance magnifies minor mistakes.

This video highlights a critical firearm malfunction where the magazine drops during firing, indicating a potential issue with the magazine catch or frame interface. The speaker, Ben Stoeger, demonstrates professional handling of the malfunction, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and addressing mechanical failures promptly. The firearm in question is a customized Shadow Systems MR920.

This video demonstrates a critical uncommanded discharge incident with a Sig Sauer P320 during a holstering procedure. The footage, analyzed by expert Ben Stoeger, highlights the importance of firearm safety and mechanical reliability, showing the discharge occurring without the shooter's finger on the trigger. It serves as a stark reminder of potential risks even during routine actions.

Ben Stoeger debunks common red dot sight misconceptions, emphasizing that 'finding the dot' and 'blooming' indicate a misunderstanding of optic mechanics. True red dot use requires focusing on the target, not the dot itself. Stoeger suggests training methods like occluding the optic to promote binocular vision and target focus, comparing this skill to trigger control which needs constant refinement.

This 15-minute dry fire program by Ben Stoeger focuses on refining fundamental shooting skills through deliberate practice. It covers slow-motion draws, varied draw techniques including lateral movement, and meticulous reload mechanics. The program progresses to advanced drills like strong-hand/weak-hand reloads and positional shooting from a kneeling stance, emphasizing precision over speed initially.
