I'm thinking of getting into practical shooting. It looks like a lot of fun. I've looked into getting some training but all the classes I've been able find are for more advanced shooters. I'd feel much more comfortable if I could get some basic instruction. How do I get some practical shooting training as a beginner?
Pistol, holster, 5 mags and mag pouches, inner and outer velcro belt, eye and ear protection. I cheaped out on knockoff mag pouches from amazon and they've been great for 4 years now. Down the road you might look at shot timers, reloading presses and chronographs.
Question Ben, for that last target under the wall, if I decide to lean forward in such a way that the lower part of my body stays out of the fault lines but my feet do not touch the ground or outside of shooting area, I keep my legs in the air "floating", do I incur on any penalties?, loving this channel!, thanks
I don't think it's correct to say that your strategies are risky. You've trained to be able to land shots on head box while falling out but she didn't. So for you, it's not really not risky. It would be risky as hell for her. But you could execute that 99% of the time...
holy shit, ben actually has light still left in his eyes
Thanks for another helpful share for us poors
This is the problem with idpa: any creativity gets penalized.
These videos are awesome Ben. Thanks! I need to join PSTG
Great stuff as always. Love to see some focus on transitions and eye work!!
Excellent
She must train like a freakin' martial artist!
Good stuff as always, sir!
Excellent!
How do you get good at stage planning?

This is a good question and we will do a future video on it.
Can you cover what basic equipment might be required for a practical shooting course?
Pistol, holster, 5 mags and mag pouches, inner and outer velcro belt, eye and ear protection.

So Ben do you shoot open with glock?

For a USPSA match, you are "in" until you touch down "out"
Did most people shoot one handed under that wall like you? Was there a third option?
There are as many options as you have imagination. Ben's solution was not a common one.
