I'm with the guys who argue for variety in the drills you use and how you use them.

I disagree that all drills must be done under time pressure.

Doesn't every dry fire drill in Steve Anderson's book start off with a non-timed set of reps?

Since there is no drill nazi standing over us when we use the Dot Torture sheet or any other set of drills, we're free to run the drills untimed or to whatever par times we like.

After heating up your muscles with a series of fast draws and reloads, why not relax a bit and do some in slow motion, thinking about whether your movements are truly efficient? Can that hurt?

On the other side of it, sometimes you could start off a practice session with aggressive par times, going fast right off the bat as when you're shooting stages cold. Maybe this should be done often since it's more like the reality of match shooting.
