Training for a Police/Practical Shooter.
Maxximuss replied to Maxximuss's topic in Training Techniques
Thank you for the advise, and please keep it coming... -
I shoot with Southernutahpistol.com at the St. George (Washington County) range. It is a well designed and beautiful range. I am from the SLC area and just moved down here for a job. I used to shoot with the Utah Defensive Pistol League, who are primarily IDPA.

Training for a Police/Practical Shooter.
Maxximuss replied to Maxximuss's topic in Training Techniques
That is a good idea. I am have only tested my dead shot time, and it is no where near the distances I practice dry fire. I just started testing my dead shot times a couple days ago at about 10 yards on a full size IDPA targed. My times are similar (best being a .72) and hits are center mass. I haven't done much live fire drills by myself, I usually save my ammo for the matches. What is a good ratio of live fire to dry fire using the same drills? -
I am looking for better ideas on my training. I am Police Officer and I shoot IDPA and USPSA on the side to make myself more proficient in my career. I practice the following everyday that I suit up: 1. Draw stroke with my shot timer set to par times between 1.3 seconds down to 0.6 seconds. I start at a 1.3 to make sure my form and grip is perfect, then increase my speed till .6. I can beat .7 and still fighting for the .6. 2. Dry fire on 1/3 scale IDPA targets (3) at between 15 and 30 feet. 3. Transitions between targets will perfect sight picture. 4. Reloads with retention and tactical reloads using snap caps. (every other time) This usually takes me about 15-20 minutes, about 25 when I do reloads. Any ideas on what I am missing or could do better?

That's easy, Glock 35! Reliable, fast, cheap, and decent capacity.

I am here to learn everything I can to be a better shooter. I am a police officer in southern Utah. I am IDPA Sharpshooter and still working on getting better.
