GARD72977 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Start with Practical Pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Stoeger Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 If you have solid technique I would start with Skills and Drills... so long as you are shooting regularly. If you don't shoot much and have a good grasp of the basic stuff maybe go Dry-fire training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayougump Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Buy them all like I did, you will get something out of each one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaycwebb Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Practical Pistol is really good. All of his books are excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayohee Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I learned the most through his Dry Fire book but keep in mind you absolutely need a timer (or smartphone with a timer app). Skills and Drills is also good but tough to do if you're not an RO. At my local range practices you basically are limited to what the duty RO has everyone doing. I recently made RO so I can now start setting up my own drills which i plan to this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundevil827 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 If you have solid technique I would start with Skills and Drills... so long as you are shooting regularly. If you don't shoot much and have a good grasp of the basic stuff maybe go Dry-fire training. I think this dude might be right. I'd roll with his suggestion.

sundevil827 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I don't want to sound too crazy, but I was kinda working towards that idea. I kinda thought his post would have been a thread ender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Moneypenny Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 honestly doesn't his pro shop give you a discount if you buy all 3 or something like that? you can't have enough good information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty79 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I've bought all of his books and the Training to Win video. If you buy "Dry-Fire Training for the Practical Shooter", you may not need the 15 minute a day book. The Pro Shop has lots of good dry fire targets. You can put kits together the way you want to.

Bunsen Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Buy all three of them for sure. Skills and Drills is the best for live fire practice. I actually got a lot of good information in a fun to read format from Practical Pistol and made it easier to get rid of some of that first early bad advice I received at my local matches.

Nickb45 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I started with practical pistol. I just got skills and drills, and his dry fire book. They seem to work together. While reading the beginning of skills and drills, I seem to fit into about every one of the "you're doing it wrong" categories. I'm looking forward to having more structured range time, rather than just wasting ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyGlock Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I got all the books and the video. "DF Training" is where I am now. Its an excellent source of training materials for me. I made a training regimen based on it w/ 1hr 3x a week df in 2-week cycle covering most of the drills starting Jan. this year. It helps a lot in my development.

May I add however that no matter how good this or any training material is, a lot depends on one's motivation and dedication. Its still the indian...
