"I designed or selected these challenges to help the armed citizen improve the critical skills of armed defense. You should be competent in the following areas:
  • Drawing from concealment with varied hand positions and executing the fundamentals of shooting
  • Accurate first hits in a suitable time
  • Being able to manage the stress of performing under pressure
I hope these drills will form a basis of practice and a metric to measure your improvement. Good skill"!

THE COMPLETE COMBATANT’S SCORED DRILLS
 
The following courses of fire challenge the armed citizen to perform the most common technical skills from a concealed draw. A well-designed interlocking curriculum provides a platform for building and evaluating core skills, efficiency, effectiveness, and mental fortitude.
 
I use martial art belt ranks as the basis for the patch system. I have taught and developed this curriculum for four decades, and I have a deep understanding of the developmental process of athletes.
 
  1. The Bullseye course checks shot calling, dot tracking, and accuracy using an extended prep and press to work on hand stopping (95-5, 90-10, 80-20) vision cues (flash, floating, focused), and trigger speed (quickly, carefully, precisely).
  2. The Trifecta is a simple test to measure the shooter’s ability to adjust hand, trigger, and vision speed relative to the target size with maximum efficiency.
  3. Mixed Six is a basic course of fire with par times to teach different hand position that armed citizen may need to employ.
  4. The Core Four establishes a baseline for current level of skill in common shooting drills. It also provides a percentage rating for the belt test patch.
