What are you doing for practice? What drills are working for you? What drills are not? What are you doing dry fire? What are you doing live fire? If its practice for shooting post it here.

I got the idea from Lanny Basham book, With Winning in Mind. I keep a log of every training day, livefire and dryfire. And on days I miss, I log why I didn't practice. I also keep a Match log. Helps to go back and see what I did. And evaluate how it worked in a match.Wolffy said:Starkherz199;n47253 said:Do you keep a training log?
Nope, always thought I should but never started one.
Dang that's quick, I'm a full second slower and feel like I could only call the shot as hit or miss at 15 yards, much less a or c hitsWolffy said:Worked solely on dry fire reloads. Really pushed the par time to see where failure would occur. Draw,1 shot,reload,1 shot, reload, 1 shot - got down to 3 secs

When is the last time you shot the gun live fire? I have found I can't hit my dryfire groove after a hiatus from live fire for more than a week. It's like your brain forgets the gun running and gives dryfire no frame of reference.FlatFender said:First dryfire session in.... 6 months?
Can barely rip a 1 second draw. Pulling the trigger when the sights are all over the D zones, etc, etc.
I've got a long road ahead of me.
Jht05016 uhh....a month? Maybe more? Hopefully my range will open back up this week.FlatFender said:First dryfire session in.... 6 months?

Woody's is still taking members, IIRC.bigfelipe said:Wish I had better options for live fire. Don't have anywhere close to do any productive live fire training. I've not done any dry fire in awhile either. Just started shooting matches again last month. Only shot a couple all of '16 until Dec. We'll see how '17 goes...

bigfelipe;n66248 said:Cool. I'm in Raleigh. Short on ammo... and GLOCKs at the moment though...
Mike79;n66259 said:Lol.....well I would say you could run my 1911 some but baby steps......I do have an XDm compact but would hate to watch you cry when you had to leave it and go back to a block
Butter;n65586 said:Watched a bunch of YT last night and today I practiced hitting steel, trying not to leave a position before I hit it
FlatFender;n66270 said:So are you focusing on calling the shot, and moving, or waiting for the ding? Have you played with Steve Anderson's "Call it and leave it" drill?
Butter;n66604 said:Focused on shot calling. Stoeger recently recommended using non electric ear pro for practicing steel shots and rhat what I did. It really helped today, other than 1 plate that gave me a fit.
Something else I learned today-I cant shoot with both eyes open. Ive tried a long time to make it work but I get a double vision. Today I closed my left eye and ran with it.
