“…I’m shooting aggressively enough that I’m not getting the outcome I want, BUT I can see what’s happening… that is the training zone.” Great way to articulate this concept. Thanks Ben.
I really think this is the best way you have ever explained it. The exact problem I am dealing with was your original demo of what not to do. And the questions you answered from the class where exact questions I had. Really appreciate all the content Ben
7:17 bingo Ben nailed it , that’s what 99.9999999% of taco a training companies will have you do , “slow down “ might as well say “get nice and comfortable ,you feel snug yet? Okay shoot”
A couple subtle changes in your presentation here vs prior years’ classes that make a lot of sense-explanation of forearm tension to create wrist lock and being extra clear about process over outcome come to mind. Good stuff.
Kind of reminds me of driving a manual transmission car but much harder because the amount of data you get back is huge and the amount of time you get to receive, process and analyze it is so small in order to make micro adjustments.
Love the separation between forearm and support hand grip/tension, vs trigger hand grip/tension. One of the biggest things I learned with Mantis. When my support hand and forearm are the foundation, I can shoot fast and accurate with minimal movement. When I start tensing my trigger hand, I’m all over.
8:32 for folks like myself that didn’t have a defined meaning of predictive shooting here it is.(based off training and experience understanding what the gun/sights/rds is going to do)
0:16 This demo of the doubles drill for a person new tuning in is well received than when it was a year ago when I first saw a clip from bens class explaining the concept. 2:27 6:00
I think this is the best explanation of the concept you've done so far. I agree with the other comments. The questions that were asked were key for my understanding as well. Great clip.
I shot my first match yesterday. I noticed distinctly, my follow up shot groups, begin to open up on the second 1/2 of the stage. I assume its because my grip is loosening up. I also used my edc 365xl which, obv isn’t ideal but…
Hey Ben… serious question here. I compete in USPSA. Carry optics is my jam so far. I use a Canik rival. I built up a slight palm swell (support side only) for a better grip. Is this legal in CO? Can’t find anything saying it’s not… but can’t find anything saying it’s ok. Do you know?
@@contactericjones I feel like the rules are clear… yet I’m positive someone would question it while chronoing my gun or putting it in the box. So I need to have ammo ready to rebut them

"I'm not really too worried about the outcome, I'm worried that you can articulate what is happening", is how you know what a good instructor is.
Yeah. I’m a frail old geezer. I need to take a class from Ben anyway.
Nobody in the business is putting out better material, or more of it, for free. Thank you, Ben.

Yeah, the questions were perfect.
This might be the best trainiing video I have seen explaining the fundamentals of speed shooting.
Thanks Ben. Needed that “predictive shooting” advice.
That's the best explanation of this drill
Damn, this is golden advice.
With these specific questions and your answers the clarity of this topic is 💯

This is probably one of the biggest lessons to learn when it comes to learning to shoot fast AND accurate, in my humble opinion.
Golden, as always. Thank you very much for sharing.

Thank you Ben, appreciate your books as well, very helpful!
Another great video!!!
Wow this video explains a lot. Have to get out to the range tomorrow morning and try some things out. Thanks dude.
This is really a great class. Crystal clear information. Thank you Ben.
Great explanation Ben, Thank you. 😃 The weak hand grip relaxing during a string is something I need to focus on, sounds like I'm not alone? 😉

If you mean the Mag-Mo, yes it is legal.
@@manabellum I don’t know what “mag-mo” is. Explain please
@@contactericjones update… I just got word from USPSA higher up.. it’s legal in CO. So that’s good news
