25 Yard Warm Up Drill

Tier II & Tier III Exclusive

PASSWORD: VE4658T2

In this video I cover my basic warm up drill. I want you guys to get used to doing this because it will be a building block for future drills. We're going to start basic and ease into the more advanced. Adding distance from the beginning will highlight any issues with your fundamentals and also help develop consistency with your draw.

Feel free to ask any questions below. More content in editing and production now.

Stay safe out there.

Cheers

Nice! How's the tape drill working for you on accuracy warm up? Curious on your feedback.

Shawn

Another good drill! I've been using that tape every week πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

David Munari

Yes. Slowing it down and stretching out the distance will help isolate parts of the shot that might need work. Dry firing with the empty casing on top of the slide will also help with maintaining sight picture throughout the trigger pull.

Shawn

When I start out shooting with my psitol, my shots look like yours... some out to the left. Slowing down the trigger pull will help this, you said? Any other tips you have would be appreciated.

James Trujillo

What's cool on the Gram doesn't always cut it in real life. Strong fundamentals and a strong foundation will be instrumental in winning under real stress. πŸ‘ŠπŸ»

Shawn

Absolutely! Happy to be on here doing it. You guys have been awesome in getting this off the ground. More coming soon.

Shawn

Thank you for the drill. To the naked eye it seems simple but like you said...it’ll amplify your flaws. Often times, from what I see at the range, shooters want to practice the β€œsexy” stuff and by pass the slow basic drills that exploit flaws. Nothing great was ever built on a weak foundation. Again, I really appreciate the videos brother!

Brandon Gray

Thanks for offering a low cost training alternative, excellent teaching pace.

Jason Davis

This would make a great video.

Shawn

Honestly I have both, but I think leather is cool! Thinking about doing a video on that setup as I've got a few.

Shawn

Nice! Wash those hands.

Shawn

Cheers! More coming soon.

From what I have learned and experienced; getting up on target, focused on the target and your front sight post is taxing. Mind and body begin to degrade quickly; increasing errors and inaccuracy. Arms begin the fatigue and bounce around, eyes become blurry etc. Drawing close to your body, then punching out and getting your target and sight focus burn energy and mental power. The longer you stay punched out on target the more errors will occur. In a way, it is like refocusing with your best efforts each time you work through the cycle. To test this; punch out, get on target and release a round when ready, then do it again but this time hold focused on target for like a minute or so a minute before releasing a round. Do that a few times and you should see the difference.

It may not be applicable to the drill in this video; perhaps you cover this later? But, I think it would be beneficial to walk through how to interpret the target results. Identifying, for example, what do trigger pull issues or anticipation issues result where the round was placed on the target would help one focus on what they need to work on. I guess this would include for example why one flings a round or consistently hits the target lower than where the point of aim was etc. Will you be covering these subjects in detail later? Great stuff man; seriously!!! Keeps us all thinking!

James Meehan

Not that it matters, but why a leather holster instead of kydex? What type of leather holster? Also, great drill. Thanks!

Mobers

This may or may not be the place, but looking at your videos and others, what is the purpose of drawing close to the chest, grip then extending, and the reverse when you are done? Is this just military training? Or is there another benefit?

Kevin Connelie

Well, I'll ask the dumb/contentious question, Front sight, or Target focus?

John W

To the range this weekend I go!

Kaden Prickett

Great fundamental drill! Looking forward to you building on it!
