Learning to use the power of Vision Fuckus

This video addresses a listener's struggle with slow target transitions, where splits can take up to 0.5 seconds. The instructor suggests diagnosing issues by first performing dry target transitions without live fire to assess sight movement and vision. The primary culprits identified are over-confirming the sight picture and taking too long to break the shot after transition, rather than slow arm movement.

This video addresses a common issue in competitive shooting: dropping points due to rushed target transitions. The instructor emphasizes that the problem often stems from not visually confirming shots and moving the gun too quickly. The core technique involves dry-firing with a deliberate pause on each target, focusing on the sight's position and ensuring both shots are completed before transitioning. This method aims to build better habits without sacrificing speed in live fire.

This video breaks down the Criss Cross Drill, a valuable training exercise for improving target transitions, trigger control, and speed under pressure. Expert Paul Costa of Achilles Heel Tactical demonstrates how to effectively blend different target zones, from the larger A-zone to the smaller credit card zone, emphasizing the importance of varying visual confirmation levels. The drill can be enhanced with weapon handling and reload components to simulate more complex scenarios.

This video provides advanced firearm training focused on recoil management and sight tracking. Instructor Ben Stoeger emphasizes the importance of 'input' – the muscular effort to control the firearm's movement after recoil – over grip alone. Drills cover aggressive shooting to identify breakdown points, one-handed shooting for isolation, and cadence shooting for rhythm. The core message is to focus on precise aiming points and consistent control rather than just speed.

This video demonstrates the 'Stuck in the Mud' shooting drill, focusing on transitioning between steel and paper targets. Ben Stoeger emphasizes the importance of aggressive shooting on paper targets to achieve faster times, aiming for around three and a half seconds. The drill is presented as a challenging exercise for improving both speed and accuracy in competitive shooting scenarios.

This guide details the 'Eyes-First' technique for red dot optic users, as explained by Jeff Heil from Tenicor. It addresses the common mistake of 'following the dot,' which leads to overshooting targets during transitions. By focusing on the target first and then bringing the gun to the sight picture, shooters can achieve greater accuracy and speed. The video emphasizes visual processing and provides actionable steps for improvement.

This video demonstrates a critical malfunction where the magazine drops during recoil, a common issue in competitive shooting. Ben Stoeger, a professional competitive shooter, highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing such failures. The guide provides steps to troubleshoot this specific problem, emphasizing safety and proper firearm handling.

This video demonstrates a critical safety incident: an uncommanded discharge of a Sig Sauer P320 during the re-holstering process. Expert analysis from Ben Stoeger highlights the visual evidence of the discharge originating from the holster, emphasizing the importance of constant vigilance and proper technique even when the firearm is supposedly "safe" in its holster. The incident underscores the need for thorough firearm inspection and immediate post-incident assessment.

Ben Stoeger, a professional shooting instructor, explains common misconceptions about red dot sights. He emphasizes that true proficiency comes from focusing on the target, not the dot itself. The guide details training methods, like occluding the optic, to develop this crucial skill, comparing it to the lifelong refinement needed for trigger control.

This comprehensive dry fire program, led by World Champion shooter Ben Stoeger, focuses on refining fundamental handgun skills. It includes a structured warm-up, detailed drills for draw stroke mechanics, efficient reloads (including strong and weak hand only), and positional shooting from kneeling. The program emphasizes precision and control, progressing to dynamic movements and transitions essential for competitive shooting.
