Why it\u2019s important:<\/strong>\u00a0Good visual skills are at the core of good shooting skills.\u00a0Regardless of whether you do sighted or unsighted shooting, being able to shift focus quickly and accurately with both eyes open is a critical skill set.<\/p>\n 2.\u00a0Dry fire draw practice with winter clothes on.<\/strong>\u00a0You\u2019re responsible for your actions and need to use an inert training platform or remove all live ammo from your training area and use a safe backstop, but here\u2019s a drill that I do every day\u2026simply practice your dry fire draw stroke with the clothes you actually wear.\u00a0As few as 5 reps can be very valuable.<\/p>\n What\u2019s the best way to get your gloves off?\u00a0Can you run the gun with them on?<\/p>\n What’s the best way to drop or throw stuff in your hands?<\/p>\n How do you get around, under, or through your coat to your gun?<\/p>\n Normally, you want to keep your head and torso still while drawing, but you may find that you need to lean away from your holster to get your coat and clothes out of the way enough to get to your gun…especially if you need do draw from under a coat 1-handed like this:<\/p>\n How fast can you manipulate your gun with cold hands?\u00a0(I encourage you to\u00a0stick your hands in a bowl of ice water for as long as you can stand it and THEN practice drawing and dry fire manipulating your pistol<\/strong>\u00a0so that you know how your performance envelope changes based on hand temperature.)<\/p>\n 3.\u00a0\u201cSlick\u201d dry fire reps<\/strong>:\u00a0Practicing \u201cslick\u201d means wearing as little extra gear as possible so that you can just focus on the core fundamentals.\u00a0Just a few high quality dry fire reps each day will cause quick, dramatic gains in speed and accuracy.<\/p>\n If you do reps with a lot of excess movement, you\u2019re going to cement in random performance.<\/p>\n If you do reps where you\u2019re going too fast to get your hits, you’ll probably get a lot of misses in real life.<\/p>\n If you do mindless reps\u2026exactly like the reps you\u2019ve been doing for the last 1000 reps\u2026it will have little to no value.<\/p>\n That\u2019s why I developed the Draw Stroke Mastery course.<\/p>\n Once you\u2019ve got the fundamentals nailed down from the 21 Day Alpha Shooter program, you want to refine your technique so that you can shoot quicker and more accurately with less effort.<\/p>\n Draw Stroke Mastery is the program that top shooters use to bust through plateaus and newer shooters use to slash\u00a0years<\/em>\u00a0off of their advancement as a shooter\u2026with only a few minutes of drills, a few times a week.<\/p>\n Your total training time will be less than most shooters spend waiting in line to get a lane at an indoor range, but you\u2019ll get WAY better results.<\/p>\n And, yes\u2026you can and should still do live fire practice.\u00a0You just won\u2019t need to do nearly as much to get better results.<\/p>\n And when you take care of the fundamentals with Draw Stroke Mastery, in the warmth and comfort of your home, you\u2019ll be freed up to focus on more dynamic and tactical applications during your live fire time.<\/p>\n So, if it\u2019s cold where you\u2019re at, click >HERE<\/a><\/strong>< now to get signed up for the training.<\/p>\n While you\u2019re there, make sure to read about how much it helped the Australian SAS instructors and I\u2019ll let a recently retired 1st<\/sup>\u00a0Special Forces Group medic tell you about his experience.<\/p>\n Click >HERE<\/a><\/strong>< now to learn more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In most places, when it\u2019s cold outside, everything seems to slow down.
