When we engage multiple targets, the vision controls the shooting and the movement of the gun. Your eyes tell you where to move the gun when you are within the target area, and what level of focus on sight alignment and picture is acceptable to break the shot.
Your vision moves ahead of your gun and focuses on the target area. Your body then moves the gun to where your eyes are focused. A common error is to move the eyes and gun together and not get ahead of the gun with your vision. This commonly results in under or overshooting your target and having to make corrections when you get there.
The concept is eyes then gun. Imagine your eyes are connected to your gun with an invisible bungee cord. As your eyes move to a new target, they pull the gun to where you are focusing.
In our quest for faster and faster target transitions, we get into the habit of trying to press the trigger the instant we see the sight come on target instead of letting the gun settle for a split second. This results in erratic performance where you may have one or two clean runs on a target array and then you start missing as you flinch while pressing the trigger in your attempt to break the shot as soon as possible.
Remember, the eyes control the shooting. You must have the patience to wait until you see the sight pause within the acceptable target area and see what you need to see in terms of sight alignment and sight picture. Trigger control is timed to vision. When you see what you need to see; the shot breaks automatically.

TPC is definitely amongst the greatest shooting resources online. Solid principles explained thoroughly by people who are passionate about being on the cutting edge of shooting.
We are glad you like our content 👍🏻
Great stuff as always!! When I first learned ironsights I realize my eyes were not conditioned to changing focal yoyo. Definitely agree it gets better with practice and should be deliberately worked on.
Absolutely! If you do not maintain consistent practice, the eyes have the tendency to slow down. That is the first symptom of irregular practice, even before the trigger pull. ☝🏻
Good stuff
Excellent instructional video... the use of cgi was effective, the verbal instructions were clear and consice... and generally, talking is not excessive 🎉
Many thanks!
Again another great video.
Thank you! Stay tuned 👍🏻
Keep them coming!!! Great video!!!
We will! 👍🏻 Please share! 👊🏻
Impecable! Desde Argentina súper didáctico, claro y conciso!
You are welcome! Please like and share to help the channel grow 👍🏻
If the eyes can manage the rest follows indeed. Same as driving. The channel needs interaction, maybe Q&A, maybe footage of students showing changes. All the visualization is on point.
Probably some live chats
Thanks!
Great lesson! Thank you
Glad you liked it!
Always target focus...
This is not just about speed and aligning the gun. This is about recognizing a 'shoot' or 'no shoot' before your gun is aligned on it. That is more critical than the speed aspect.
It was mentioned at the very beginning of the video that we need to take the tactical assessment into consideration. ...but ☝🏻if there are multiple immediate threats already identified as such and they are all equal tactical priority ...then it is all about speed of engagement! ...especially at close distances
I think it's better to keep your gun in go condition but instead of following the sites while moving to the next target just look at the target square on and drag your arms that direction till you see it level out on the target
You're far more situationally aware if you aren't glued to your sights
We emphasized at the beginning of the video when the discussed technique will be applied. We mentioned that we are not talking about assessing the threat. The demonstrated technique is useful when we have multiple targets that are already assessed as imminent threats with equal tactical priority.
Impossible after cataract surgery. Its red dot on every gun I have for learn to est a blurry sight picture.
Red dots are very useful in such a situation. You do not need to switch the focus back to the sights shooting a red dot sight. 👍🏻
If you are identifying multiple targets wouldnt the best thing to do is get shots on the first to at least slow them and then focus on second to neutrilize then go back to first target to finish? Assuming you know how to ise your firearm
When you have multiple targets it's critical to engage all of them first and then neutralize the ones that are still an immediate threat. In self-defense situations, we use the firearm to stop only a life-threatening attack.
If they are all standing at the same distance I would argue focusing on the middle and keeping both sides in your peripheral, and make decisions to who to shoot next by evaluating both after shooting the first.
He lost me at Focal Yo-yo. Target focus 100% of the time. Shifting focus, back and forth between target and sights is slow and unnecessary. No different between iron sights or red dot.
We understand the importance of his theory, but achieving impeccable kinesthetic skills is equally crucial. We recognize that this can vary for each shooter, influenced by factors such as skill level, neuro system, and proprioceptive abilities. Have you considered honing your accuracy for shots at greater distances or minimal exposure? The front and rear sights on your firearm serve a purpose - they aid in accurately gauging your shots. Without sufficient input on your sight configuration while using iron sights, how can you effectively call your shots? Additionally, the varying levels of focus deserve careful consideration. We agree that vision is a secondary control mechanism but it can be critical in high-stress situations or when the proprioceptive input is not at its best. We are prepared to engage in a discussion regarding the oversimplification of your statement.
