Dr. Phil Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Watch DVR movies. Reload more movies more reloading design a training regimen to focus on weaknesses and begin to execute with dryfire more reloading stock up on powder, primers, bullets, etc oh, and my version of 9 rounds...

Jamese35 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Off season is your best time to make gains. Here is what I do. I'm up bright and early to blast out a good work out about a hour worth, then a 20 minute or so dryfire practice, get the kids ready for school, go to work, come home, help kids with homework, dinner, bed for kids, then more dryfire usually about 2 hours worth. On non work days I get up work out, dryfire, than if it's nice out I'll go shoot, if it's not nice I'll reload or size and deprime brass, then the rest of the day is with my kick@ss wife (she is the best and supports and pushes me to keep up on my workouts and training) and the kids.

IHAVEGAS Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 https://www.walmart.com/ip/Bowflex-PR1000-Home-Gym-with-25-Exercises-and-200-lbs-Power-Rod-Resistance/270460480?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&adid=22222222227122180732&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=234311344204&wl4=pla-577743187112&wl5=9016656&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=online&wl12=270460480&wl13=&veh=sem&gclid=Cj0KCQiAgf3gBRDtARIsABgdL3n-VlhSvJIXfLXQAyOg67u2aEmemiQD9Bv61ULnMaI9IrpqutGUmHEaAlucEALw_wcB They had Bowflex 1000's for under $350 tax included at WalMart if you went the store pick up route, makes for a more time efficient workout that messing with free weights. If it does not aid my shooting it should at least aid my wall & steels moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motosapiens Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 we actually have matches through the winter in SW idaho, but I treat it like an off-season anyway, and only show up for matches if the weather is reasonably pleasant. I'm pretty much doing my regular dry-fire routine (30-50 minutes daily), with extra movement focus on the days I don't play hockey. Less live fire, and more focused on fundamentals like shot-calling and grip because it's hard to compare data from summer with data in 25 degrees with 3 layers of clothing. Also a little more focus on steel challenge because after we set up a stage, we can shoot quite a bit without having to stop to tape, and mrs moto and I made some breakthroughs in steel towards the end of last season, so we're going to take it a bit more seriously this year. and I brew beer and play hockey because it's dark and cold, and watch alot of football.

DJD Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 It’s usually dark before I get home from work during the winter so I dry fire most of my live fire drills inside daily. I focus on sight picture, gun handling, and grip. I also work on footwork and transitions in my garage. I run and do core and body weight exercise throughout the year but I also fit in some jump rope in the cold months to help with my footwork.

Yoakam Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Reload. Purchased a new Benelli late last year and will probably ship it off to get opened up a little before a shoot another match. When I catch some pretty days I shoot some steel behind my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJB05 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 dry fire everyday and hopefully get to live-fire once a week....and pray that it is a mild winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highhope Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Live in Ohio. So just go to indoor range, and practice double, weak hand etc.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xfive Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Take 3 months off then start back up with dryfire, airsoft, some indoor matches and fun matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amerflyer48 Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Bullseye shooting with an emphasis on shot calling ,basic gun handling to stay familiar, general fitness weights and burpees,slow at first adding new technique or gear in dry firing then when I can live fire (weather/schedule dependent) And some sort of cross training something different so I am just a “bit hungry” to return to the range come springtime.

Charlestiller Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Lots of reloading and dry fire practice. In my office at work I have mini USPSA targets taped to the walls in different places and practice sight acquisition and transitions with a blue gun. Lots of draw repetitions and reloads as well.

We do have plenty of indoor shooting that doesn't include lame range rules...... Hammer Down Sunday nights and Miamisburg Monday nights come to mind. Plus this winter I've gotten by with a sweatshirt more than any winter in recent memory so I've hit my outdoor range more than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boudreaux78 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Off season is to work on everything that you should’ve noted after every match. After each match, I make a list of things that I need to work on and things I did well. Off season is a time to hone the good things and improve the rest.
