Frequently Asked Questions

What is predictive shooting and how does it progress?

Predictive shooting involves anticipating shot placement and recoil for rapid follow-up shots. The progression typically starts at 15 yards, moves to 25 yards, and then extends to greater distances to build proficiency and control.

How should I assess my performance in a 25-yard shooting drill?

Focus on the overall consistency of your grip and shooting mechanics. Aim for consistent 'alpha' hits in the center mass of the target, rather than dwelling on occasional misses in the D-zone.

What equipment is recommended for 25-yard shooting drills?

A handgun, such as a Glock-style firearm, equipped with a slide-mounted red dot sight is recommended for faster target acquisition. Reliable concealment gear like Tenicor holsters is also beneficial.

What are 'alphas' and 'D-zone' in shooting?

'Alphas' are shots hitting the A-zone, the center mass of the target, indicating precision. The 'D-zone' refers to areas outside the A-zone, representing less accurate hits.
