      What drills did you run this week and how did you do?

      It's been a long time coming. I've always said i need to do more sho work but never actually did. I finally ran out of excuses haha. It wasn't nearly as bad as i thought it would be. But don't get me started on support hand! No thank you!

      What drills did you run this week and how did you do?

      I ate my vegetables today. Neither shooting partner nor my fiance were able to join and I told myself that the next time i found myself alone on a range visit, I was going to do an entire practice Strong Hand Only. It is a skill that i believe is important, and even relatively likely to be used...

      Between this and the previous x-ray alpha drill you posted, i think i'll have a spicy and humbling session tomorrow! Should be demoralizing! ;0

      More wheelgun stuff today. Cold drill was a 5 yard round up, with a fairly poor 92 using the 686 ssr with sro and nills. Attempted some garcia dots but didn't come close, hit times but only 1 or 2 hits per string. Decided to run a casino to see if i could hit the 21 second par with an...

      What drills did you run this week and how did you do?

      Had a revolver day while me and the fiance got out to shoot. I ran a 686 ssr with an sro and nills from a comp rig. It is my favorite gun, aside from my old 617. I started with a Bakersfield qual and scored a 97. I was ot on the first string and during the reload string (i suck at speedloader...

      ACE VR shooting

      do they have a Rogers Range stage on there? That would be interesting to learn the patterns on ACE prior to going to the school. I wonder how much it would benefit in that regard. Looks good, i'll eventually have to try one.

      What drills did you run this week and how did you do?

      My old shooting partner returned for the season so we broke out the match belt and ran the Standard practice at 7 and 10 yards, using the b class pars. I hit the times on most but was sloppy with several C's and a D on one run. While i can still run defensive oriented drills with little...

      What drills did you run this week and how did you do?

      Inspired by some gunosphere drame elsewhere, i decided to run the FAMs Qual as my cold drill today. Well pseudo anyway as i did not have the correct targets but i did have some of Weems targets instead. I also screwed up and shot the first ready 2 from the holster and thus once i shot it over...

      A good starting point - https://pistol-training.com/drills/ Many of TLG's are printed on a single sheet of paper and have modifiers for adapting to a single shooting lane.

      What drills did you run this week and how did you do?

      Another quick session today. I had planned an itinerary of drills focused on my carry gear but forgot the proper targets so i just mostly worked with the new guy. I did a few reps of the first string from the 99 drill and bombed (ouch, out of practice but with my old expectations is ego...

      No VR stuff here yet. That's why i've got reservations. If the kid gets vr for a gift etc..then it will be more attractive. Looking forward to the review.

      The Ace worthy of the investment?

      Same to you sir! We may run in to each other at a match. A friend has been considering idpa and I saw your name on a previous matche while browsing practicscore. I'm more into uspsa and steel challenge but if he doesn't budge it may be an idpa match. Hopefully we can spark some more...
