I've incorporated this drill into my training for a while now and it has really helped me increase my speed with accuracy. I can average splits below .20 for the six shots now and have gotten a few .16 splits. When I started I couldn't get below half a second splits. Great drill, thanks for sharing Kyle.
Really like your videos Kyle. You give a lot of good information and seem to be a good teacher. Really want to take classes from you. Thanks for the help.
Great video Kyle! This is being taught in the Armed Forces as well. The same thing method applies to all platforms of weapons. Short, sweet, and informative!
as someone who plays musical instruments the idea of cadence and counting makes way more sense than i realized. definitely gonna try this next time i go out shooting.
Thanks for the methodical tips. I'll definitely try this at my range. For the next time, can you share a view of the resulting groups that were shot for each round?
Hells yes. This is one I will actually go learn as opposed to the million drills that teach shit I learned years ago. I think this might be the one to take my skill set next level.
Ron Avery has been shooting the rhythm drill since the early 90's. The drill is shown on his dvd series "Secrets of a Professional Shooter," filmed in 2000. I don't know how long Bill Go has been shooting this drill, but I have a feeling it wasn't in the early 90's. I'm not trying to take away anything from this video, the information is good stuff. I just want to give credit, where credit is due.
how tightly do you grip the gun when shooting fast? a little less than death grip? The grip would definitely be tighter than when precision shooting right? Or do you use the same grip no matter what kind of shooting?
Not to take anything from Bill Go (a phenomenal shooter) but credit where credit's due. Search- The Bill Drill - With Bill Wilson and Ken Hackathorn Confirmed by Rob Leatham at minute 8:45. Search- Rob Leatham at Discount Gun Mart 17mar2012
It's been modified by so many shooters and has some similarities but also some differences like this one. But yeah I've always thought the Bill drill was the original drill.
It’s all about grip and stance, if you get those things right the gun returns to where it started after the shot. You will see a “flash” sight picture between shots, which tells you that your are still on target. That takes some practice. Keep in mind that he is shooting a 6” dot at 5yards, not exactly a difficult shot. This type of speed requires some serious practice but up close like that, all you really have to see is that your sights are over the target and you will make your hit
PantherBlast8086 I think it’s a reference to music being all done in beats, half beats, quarter beats, sixteenths, etc, and with each fraction you are “halving” the time between counts. Makes sense, this is a very similar approach to shooting
Bill Go? He is an awesome shooter, but that drill wasn't named after him. You might want to check your facts. Also, I trained at BW back in the day and I am sure "Gaz" ran training when you were there. Or not, I could be mistaken. pistol-training.com/drills/bill-drill
Bill Go here. Robert Klein is absolutely correct. The classic "Bill Drill" , six rounds from the holster into the "A" of an IPSC target at 7 yds) was invented by, depending on who you ask, either Bill Rogers (the holster maker and former FBI man) or Bill Wilson (of Wilson Combat), both early IPSC competitors from the 1970-1980 timeframe. I have used the drill extensively, as have many trainers, but can claim no credit for its creation. Bill Go, Director, ACADEMI Southwest, San Diego CA bgo@academi.com

Keep em coming Kyle, I'm learning a lot with your videos.
Good stuff Kyle, thanks for your service

+MM0382 I love how Ron explains himself. One of my favorite instructors
Good drills, I'll practice them when I go to the range next
Thanks for these very informative videos Kyle!
Great stuff Kyle and thanks Bill!
Nice and simple plan to follow.
This mans reholstering is crisp.
Nice! Appreciate that!
J Thanks for the feedback!
Please say what range this should be shot at and do show your hits. Thanks for info.
He says in the video that it’s a Bill drill which means 7 yards
Very good drills, thanks.
Great video, thanks!
more great stuff from Kyle coming, stay tuned!
how tightly do you grip the gun when shooting fast? a little less than death grip? The grip would definitely be tighter than when precision shooting right? Or do you use the same grip no matter what kind of shooting?
Death grip son. Think about how tight you'll be gripping your pistol when your life depends on it and your dropping threats not shooting paper
Great video!
do you use after market triggers for faster trigger pull?
great vid. thanks.

I am not getting in between those guys, we just provide the information!
Bill Wilson invented the Bill Drill, I know because I was there the day it happened.
Lots more coming form Kyle, please subscribe, and follow!

great info, thank you!
Useful video, thanks!
How are you aiming when running that fast?
You're really not. You're relying on your natural point of aim to bring the gun back on target.

What range is this drill run at?
what caliber are you shooting??
for the filming Kyle was using all 9mm, he ran a Glock 19, and a Glock 17
Bill must've been a piano player.

Kyle, of course this is good stuff, but Ron Avery was teaching this a long time ago....probably when you were just a kid.
Too bad all the ranges near me have a 1 shot per second limit.
Well, that's an overly simple drill to accredit someone for.
feel free to subscribe and follow, more coming!
" i wanna shoot fast "
Haven't watched the video yet but man get rid of that thing please. get you a Leopold mk 6
