You have to shoot this cold, no air gunning or practice draws.
Exactly....a couple of things
1. We had nothing to do with this drill's inception. The rules are not Ours. They are Just the rules.
2. It is not and never was a competition. It is a test to help You see if your chosen platform will work for You.
3. It is overtly deceiving in it's simplicity.
4. IF you choose to carry daily, and I do. You should only try the Wizard in the manner you carry. Anything else is meaningless in This drill.
5. If you choose to pocket carry the "rules" allow for you to start with your hand on the gun. NOTHING is faster. BUT remember, by choosing to pocket carry you immediately make it more difficult for yourself because of using a Much smaller gun. *
Remember what it's for...not bragging rights because it Only is a test of YOU and Your PLATFORM.
If you do this from Concealment and Cold and never get it done, use those results to help you choose a system that Will let you do it.
It has proven hard for us. We have 2 Black Shirt wearers for doing it. I will be happy to give all one who do it here. I hope you wear it as a source of pride. NOT in your ability to shoot, but to take results and rethink your system.
The Wizard awaits.

I can do the Wizard about 80% of the time using a full size gun. About 40% using a pocket gun. Since I always pocket carry, the results with the full size gun are meaningless to me.
