Instruction from Ben Stoeger, co-author of 'Baseline Dryfire' and 'Practical Shooting Training', emphasizes focused practice. He advises limiting drills to 2-3 core concepts per session, dedicating 10-20 repetitions to each for effective learning. This approach, whether dry-fire or live-fire, helps shooters develop skills efficiently, even with limited ammunition.

This video offers expert advice for shooters stuck in B or C class, identifying two primary camps: the slow and deliberate, and the reckless. For those too slow, the advice is to embrace practice mistakes and push speed, particularly in dry fire. For those too fast but inaccurate, the focus shifts to building discipline by waiting for sight alignment before firing. The instructor, Joel Park, draws on his own experience of being stuck in B-class for a decade to provide actionable strategies for improvement.

Joel Park, an experienced instructor, details how to improve handgun draw technique through focused dry fire training. He emphasizes identifying specific flaws, concentrating on one aspect at a time, and practicing consistently.

This video emphasizes that real improvement in shooting skills comes from dry fire practice, with live fire serving as a test of dry fire effectiveness. Instructor Joel Park advises using live fire sessions to identify specific issues, then employing micro-drills or dry fire to address them. He also discusses the importance of varying shooting distances to understand how target proximity affects technique and the critical nature of input at longer ranges.

Joel Park, a firearms instructor, discusses the challenges and realities of switching between different firearm platforms. He emphasizes that making all guns feel the same is often a flawed goal due to inherent differences in grip angle, controls, and ergonomics. While some fundamental shooting skills transfer, mastering a new platform requires dedicated practice to learn its specific nuances, such as disengaging safeties or managing unique features like magwells. Park advises focusing training on a primary competition or duty firearm to build proficiency, rather than dividing time across multiple platforms, especially when preparing for specific events.
