Practical Pistol Show 187 - Pro Shop says get more Tanfos

This guide, from an expert competitive shooter, details how to build speed in USPSA without sacrificing accuracy. It covers common time-wasting habits during draws, movement, and target transitions, emphasizing the importance of shooting while moving and off-balance. The strategy advocates for an integrated approach to dry fire and live fire training, focusing on efficient sight acquisition and trigger press to maximize speed while maintaining high accuracy.

This video emphasizes a structured approach to firearms training, differentiating the roles of dry fire, live fire practice, and competition matches. Lead Firearms Instructor Joel Park advises that dry fire is crucial for skill building, live fire for validation and observation, and matches for performance testing under pressure. He cautions against trying to learn new skills or significantly increase speed during competitions, as the added pressure and distractions make it an ineffective environment for skill acquisition.

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 addresses the common issue of feeling slow and choppy during shooting matches due to over-focusing on accuracy. Instructor Joel Park explains that this often stems from staring at the sights or pausing movement unnaturally. He provides practical dry-fire and live-fire drills to improve target transitions and maintain fluid movement, emphasizing target focus over sight focus and developing a natural walking cadence.

Joel Park, an expert in practical shooting sports, explains the critical importance of isolating trigger manipulation during specific dry fire drills. By removing the trigger press, shooters can focus on fundamental skills like visual focus, sight alignment, and target transitions, leading to more efficient and effective practice. This method helps diagnose and correct underlying issues without the distraction of simulating recoil or a perfect shot.

This video from GBRS Group demonstrates a pistol trigger control drill focusing on the 'Now' command, emphasizing precise trigger manipulation and timing. Instructor Andrew, exhibiting high authority and expertise, guides the shooter through finding the trigger's wall and breaking the shot cleanly. The drill is presented as a transition from rifle principles to handgun application, highlighting the importance of deliberate practice for improved accuracy and speed.

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.
