Love Pat's take on this classic drill. Excellent stuff. As I get older I'm more interested in how people teach rather than just what people teach. I think you've found a nice balance. Training to hit, rather than training to miss is a great phrase that embodies that philosophy.
Pat, I appreciate you demoing the drill and not shy to let the world know your time. I know that the tact reload add a few seconds to the El Prez, unlike the speed load version that every hot shot ace claimed they can do it in 6 seconds or less. The all A scoring system adds another degree of difficulty to this drill. Hope the new people realize this.
Training to hit, not training to miss. It sounds better than a line from a particular highly embellished 2000 film saying "aim small, miss small". I can understand the line in the film, just kinda irks me. Guess that's Hollywood for ya. Got a 8" static popper that I use in the backyard. I don't get to shoot much, but that small target keeps me from loosing the fundamentals.
It's a drill, not combat. The drill makes you think about reloading rather than always shooting the gun empty, and thus getting into the not-good habit of not having to think about when to reload. And being slower on the tactical reload (which should be as fast as a dry reload). Engaging the same targets as two separate events (two separate target sets) in this drill to maximize training value. Three separate training objectives: turn and engage, engage multiple targets, tactical reload. Of course in a fight you would keep shooting as long as the targets were standing, then reload from empty (if you were still alive). But you don't have to train for that...some things you are just gonna do...also this drill was thunk up long ago with pistols that carried 7+1. Reloading was even more of a consideration and training to avoid a dry gun was a bigger priority than now.
@@TheNemosdaddy Where did i say kill? I said some people walk around in the surrendered position. You don't know how to read. Maybe CNN should have a talk with you the way you put words in people's mouth.
"Training to hit, not Training to miss" that hit right this morning. Thanks.

As someone wiser and more famous than I once said:
You can't miss fast enough to win.
Or something like that.
Clint Smith used to always say he never saw a timer in a gun fight and never talked to anyone who had seen one either.
Timer says its a no go, lol 😆, thanks Mac!
lol that's weird, timer says N zero G zero
"Head and eyes lead, body follows."
Performance based training-love it!DOL!

Head and Eyes, feet & toes. Lions, tigers, and bears.. ohmy
good stuff thanks
Awesome 👏🏽

Good drill
Thank you
Pat Mac in his element.
I remember getting yelled at on this very same range by Tom...."Stop overthinking shit and just run the damn gun."
Hit first build speed always!
Eyes lead , sights follow
A corollary of ( dance ) head leads, body follows
As Wyatt Earp once said, "Fast is fine, but accuracy is final. You must learn to be slow in a hurry."
What kydex owb holster are you using in this video?

A line from a movie? That saying has been around a WHOLE LOT longer than the movie “The Patriot”.
Anyone know what brand of mag pouch Pat is running?
Not sure why it would not be on slide lock. Can someone fill me in?
You never pick up cartridges on your shooting range?
Why tac mag and not slide lock reload?

Wow, great info you possess and then passing it onto other law abiding firearm owners.
Why does nobody clean the range?
They never leave so anyone CAN clean it. It won't stop until they can step off the casings and stand on the moon.
How do you know they don't....???
Because under all the casings are the bodies of those who ask stupid questions.
You dont like that sound? It's like Christmas

These are great.
I've never seen somebody demo an el prez so slow and then upload it. 4s is the golden standard not 15s
What was the last thing said in this video? I'll help you: "Nice and slow." It's a beginner class.
I know right. Crazy slow.

How come you don’t start from the surrender position? Is it a waste of time?
I do not walk around in a surrender position
@@patmcnamara - Gotcha. Makes sense.
@@patmcnamara ahaaha well some "peaceful" protestors walk around like that
@@Persocondes so you're threatening to kill protesters? Maybe the FBI or ATF should have a talk with you.
