Throughout this drill reset your trigger and get your sights back on target quickly. Count them out loud and break each shot as you say the number. This is accomplished through the use of your 'cadence' which is explained on it.

Drill 5 is to determine the speed you can accurately hit different sized targets. Target 2 trains on the more advanced aspects of shooting such as cadence, recoil management, and throttle control. What you reinforce in one drill should be carried over to the next.

Remember that each drill builds on the previous one. Drills three and beyond are all from the holster working draws and reloads. Drill one establishes your correct grip and trigger squeeze, and drill 2 works on your sight acquisition and presentation to progress into your draw stroke. All drills are started from the holster with the exception of the first and second. Target 1 works on training your sight alignment and trigger squeeze through slow aim fire, draws, reloads, recoil management and well aimed follow up shots after the reload. This target is a good way to ensure you are hitting as much of the different facets of your training as possible. By doing the drill in order, you will progress from slow aim fire to weapon manipulation to cadence and throttle control. This target was designed to provide a plan for your warmup drills with 150 rds for your pistol, but can be used with rifle too with some modification. Once drill is completed, ensure you perform another slide lock reload to get your gun up and scan your sector/threat area.īAER SOLUTIONS WARM UP TARGET, AKA 'DANNY' TARGET Perform drill with 10 rd magazine first, 3 rd magazine second, and have a full mag prepared to get gun back up after drill. Perform slide lock reload and engage center circle with 3 rds. Transition to other rectangle and engage with 5 rounds. Getting complacent or comfortable keeps us stagnant, always strive to get better.įrom the holstered position, hands off of gun at sides, on signal draw and engage left or right 6' x 3.5' rectangle with 5 rounds. If you miss, you fail, so be accountable for your rounds. As with anything, once you have gotten good at it go ahead and move back to 7 or even 10 if you can. We don't get to warm up in real life so this is shot cold, meaning no warm up.
