jayjay1 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Hey there, I began IPSC about half an year ago, and I´m still searching "my way" for training. I´m the only one who shoots IPSC around here, it is not that spreaded around in my area. So I have no one to ask, but want to build up my skills, having no idea how I can do this certain. I feel like shooting around a little but there is no structure in that. Anyone an idea / tip / link / anything? Thanks, Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayougump Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I think this book is GREAT!!! Dry-fire in my opinion is invaluable http://www.benstoegerproshop.com/Guaranteed-Results-in-15-Minutes-a-Day-Ben-Stoeger-p/results-in-15-minutes-int.htm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a matt Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Bayongump is right. But you will still need some live-fire to tie it all together. Good luck.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerome Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Mike Seeklander Competion book will give you a pretty complete and structured training program. https://www.createspace.com/3418137 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a matt Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I have watch Mikes book make more than one person a much better shooter. Good stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBunniFuFu Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Excellent books above. I also recommend Steve Andersen's book as well. Refinement and Repetition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcarpenter82 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I have Mike's and Steve's books. Excellent material. Practically impossible not to improve. One point though...make sure you have established the correct fundamentals of the draw, trigger pul, grip etc...cuz i found chasing a par time with incorrect fundamentals will lack the results you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBunniFuFu Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I have to agree with Carpenter. I heard this a while ago. Practice doesn't make perfect. Practice makes permanent. Perfect Practice makes perfect. Remember this everytime you decide to train. Don't get lazy and cut corners, you are only going to screw yourself.

jayjay1 Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 Well, I´m looking for the perfect practice, that´s why I started this fred. I know, that the wrong training makes you learn faults (know that from precision shooting). I´m having a book from Steve Anderson here anywhere, but it is another one that you recommended. Should I go for Mike Seelander´s book next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBunniFuFu Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Mike has a great book. I am a firm believer in dry firing though so I would go with Steve or Ben's books first. If you are going all out Ben Stoeger just released a new book of live fire drills last week. He just got second place at the USPSA Production Nats. if that says anything. You can't go wrong with either. Good luck with your program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_C Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Ben's new live fire book is the best there is, in my opinion. It won't give you a plan (he even says so in the book), but it gives you every drill you could ever need. Identify your weaknesses, go to the appropriate section of Ben's book, and practice away. You'll need a timer, three target stands (for most of the drills in the book), and targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBunniFuFu Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Chris, since he just started and is looking for a way to train I think Ben's or Steve's dry fire books are better for now. They offer more of a training regiment. Once he figures out weaknesses Ben's new book is fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my00wrx1 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Jerry barnharts DVDs are very comprehensive, though they were made a few years ago now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
