CLICK HERE: Deliberate Practice by Brian Hill
One of the areas shooters can improve is their approach to practice. Methodology, structure, and feedback are critical elements that are overlooked, but provide the best options for improvement. Strategy, tactics, and techniques need to be practiced until they can be performed with unconscious competence. Equally as important is the shooters mindset, and how they can strengthen their performance under pressure. Practice is often perceived as drudgery, and therefore is a negative situation. There are 4 changes to any negative situation: 1-Exit 2-Voice 3-Persistence 4-Neglect Obviously, in this context, persistence is practice, and the other three, while often used, do not yield the results we are after. We need to find a working solution through deliberate practice. Many believe that only the talented will improve, and of course there are some attributes that make shooting easier for some, like big hands or excellent eyesight, but if look deep enough into high level performance we find persistence is the key factor................... |

CLICK HERE: Make ONE good FIRST Decision by Sandra Kozero
It’s late at night and you are out of gas. You should have done it earlier, but now you don’t have a choice. You stop at your local gas station to add a few gallons of fuel to get you home. As usual, one of the dozen lights illuminating the pumps is flickering. Before you turn off your car, you circle the parking lot to make sure there are no suspicious cars or people in the vicinity. You see an employee and a customer at the register through the wall of windows in the front of the store. You park and get out of the vehicle only to discover the credit card reader isn’t working. You walk quickly toward the store checking behind you to make sure no one is following you. As you enter, the double doors close behind you and you find the “customer” is holding up the employee with one hand reaching out demanding the money from the till and the other on what looks like the largest black pistol you have ever seen. Your presence has startled the robber and you now find yourself looking down the barrel of a handgun and 4 yards from a very jittery criminal. What do you do? Well that depends. You have to wait for your brain to tell you what to do, but first your brain has to work through the all the available options that it can imagine, then provide you what it thinks is the best solution............. Thank you Sandra! Image Based Decisional Drills |

Sit back and enjoy this short story on HOW we ended up with such amazing partners like Heckler & Koch and Holosun! Many years ago Active Self Protection introduced us to Bill Dermody, HK-USA's Marketing Director and we instantly hit it off. Over the years we have become friends with not only Bill, but the team over at HK in Columbus, GA. We are trusted supporters of each others goals, we travel, teach, train and educate together at our range in Dahlonega, GA and on the road. We are very proud to be called HK Ambassadors. We wanted to offer The Complete Combatant's clients a unique experience so we asked HK if they would send us a mixture of 15 VP9s and VP9SKs with Iron Sights and they jumped at the chance to be a part of helping people become more proficient with firearms.
HK introduced us to Luis Chirino, Holosun's LEO / MIL Sales Manager, Factory Relations Manager, and Social Media and Promotions Manager at a HK VIP Event. I hate to sound repetitive but, we knew immediately that we wanted to explore a professional relationship with Holosun. This was not just because Holosun is an excellent optic, but it was also because the people AT Holosun were warm, welcoming, had great communication skills, knowledgeable and loved their community. This got us thinking, The Complete Combatant would be much more "complete" if we also had a handful of HK Optic Ready VP9s with Holosun Optics (Red and Green Dots) for our student's to train with. The same benefits above apply here as well but there is one HUGE added bonus for being able to RENT an HK with a Holosun Optic during your class.....if you have only shot with Iron Sights, and are just curious about the Red Dot Sighting System, you do NOT have to shell out the big bucks to buy one until you KNOW you like it. You can rent a VP9 with a Holosun Optic from us, experience all that the dot has to offer under the guidance of Modern Samurai Project's Certified Red Dot Instructors/MSP Endorsed Instructors, and maybe THEN YOU CAN MAKE A DECISION if you want to dive deeper into learning the dot. |

"I had the opportunity to exchange a private lesson for a haircut today. The stylist is an experienced shooter who has taken a number of classes and can run a pistol quite competently. This made the choice of modules for the lesson a little different than might usually be done for a private lesson. Since we were at her home, no live fire was indicated. I used three different learning modules for her lesson." Claude Werner |

FPF TRAINING:
Self-Defense Is More Than Shooting "Shooting accurately is a mechanical skill that’s relatively easy to learn. But shooting is only one small part of the self-defense paradigm. For average citizens to get the best return on their investment of training time and money, we believe shooting skills must be acquired and practiced not in a vacuum but in an immersive, real-world context that reinforces the spectrum of skills required for the adoption of this lifestyle. Mission Our mission is to provide training focused on the skills that provide the best chance for success in a self-defense situation. No Hollywood-style gun play or “trademark pending” techniques that look cool but fail under the pressure of violence wielded by a determined opponent. Instead, we help people like you develop the skills, find the equipment, and cultivate the kind of attitude that can help ordinary people prevail in extraordinary circumstances. We prepare you to avoid the threat if you can, and teach you how to stop it if you must." John Murphy |

Hi all! WHere is a short review of Image Based Decisional Drills by Neil Weidner of Active Self Protection. John Correia founded Active Self Protection in 2011 to teach people in all walks of life to develop the attitude, skills, and plan to defend themselves and their families from harm.
We are very happy on partner with ASP on many projects! |

In addition to the summer camp for teens, they also do Homes of Hope. When foster teens reach 18, they age out of the system. Many find themselves immediately homeless on their 18th birthday and without the life skills and support system to rise above that challenge. FHFTC proves room and board, along with support and training in basic life skills to ease the transition from foster child to adult. They stay on-site and learn about budgeting, hygiene, cooking, cleaning, job skills, etc. This is a tremendous resource for them and they get to go through this transition with caring adults and counselors to point the way.
So what does that have to do with Bullets and Bibles? We are doing a fundraiser for Flint Hills Foster Teen Camps! All staff and instructors have donated their knowledge and time to this training. Multiple businesses have agreed to donate to cover the expenses of this fundraiser! Where do you come in and how do you go? READ ON: You can attend the 2020 event with a $600 donation to Flint Hills Foster Teen camp. This $600 donation goes directly to them and as a donation is 100% tax-deductible!!! You make the donation and as a “thank you”, you can attend this event. Businesses will cover costs and staff and instructors donate their time. All of the money goes to this amazing ministry. |
Welcome to the ASP National Conference 2019 Overview and 2020 invite! In this vid I describe why the ASP National Conference is a unique training opportunity and why you should come!
As you know, Active Self Protection is serious about training people to defend themselves and their loved ones. We train nonstop and encourage others to get in a little training each year, as well. To that end, we want to provide high-quality training from some of the top trainers around the country at this conference-style event. All aspects of self-defense will be covered! This will be a benefit to those of any skill level and will include plenty of classes and events for both shooters and non-shooters alike. This will be a three-day conference taking place September 25-27, 2020 outside of Manhattan, Kansas at Living Water Ranch and Tallgrass Shooting Sports. I cannot say enough about the beauty and suitability of this property and grounds. More on why we choose this location in the following paragraphs.We did some classes at this property last year and were stunned at the beauty of the grounds, but more importantly, the people there became instant family and as we learned about what they were doing at Living Water Ranch, we knew we wanted to be part of supporting that mission. Living Water Ranch is a camp facility and home to Flint Hills Foster Teen Camps. FHFTC provides camping experiences to foster teens ages 12-18 in their area. Many times there are no funds for these kids to attend summer camps. Many times, the teens are struggling with enough life issues and stressors that a traditional summer camp is not a good fit. FHFTC tries to fill that gap by providing an incredible summer camp experience and also providing some healing and love to these hurting hearts. These have been doing this a long time and have a huge heart for hurting kids. |
