Shooting Drill to Fix Bad Habits | Flinching | Tactical Rifleman
This video introduces the Ball and Dummy drill to diagnose and correct flinching, a common issue where shooters anticipate recoil by jerking the trigger. By using a mix of live and dummy rounds, instructors can identify the flinch. The Alternating Ball and Dummy drill then helps retrain the shooter's muscle memory by allowing them to practice a smooth trigger pull with known dummy rounds, ultimately improving accuracy with live fire.
