BOISCOID Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 What are some of your recommended books? I have "Practical Shooting, Beyond Fundamentals" by Brian Enos on order and inquiring about any other suggestions. Is there any other writings that are highly regarded for USPSA/IPSC akin to how "Longrange Shooting Handbook" by Ryan Cleckner is PRS/NRL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJinPA Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I’ve also read “Thinking Practical Shooting” which I thought was excellent. I have Ben’s dryfire and skills/drills books. Both are great for that purpose. I have all 3 Steve Anderson books. I use refinement and repetition for dry fire drills but got a lot out of “get to work”. There are a lot of drills in there too but reading it gave me a new perspective of thinking about how to get more points per second.

LHshooter Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I have Brian's book. Also 3 books by Ben Stoeger - Practical Shooting, Skills & Drills, and Dry Fire Training. Ben's books do a great job of giving both live and dry fire drills along with goals it takes to make GM. I also have a book by Saul Kirsch - Perfect Practice, that does a real good job. All are recommended. I have the first dry fire book by Steve Anderson, but I like Ben's books better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoyoteMW Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Ditto on the Ben Stoeger and Steve Anderson books. They have much valuable information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikdanja Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Ben Stoegers dry and live fire books got me to GM. He really makes the goals seem achievable. Also, “with winning in mind” is a must. Gets your head right for not only practice, but game day. Steve Anderson is legit also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesliet Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 I keep going back to Brian's book every so often, and find stuff I wasn't ready for yet, on rereading sections. I prefer the more Zen approach there to most of the others I've read, although Ben Stoeger's books have a lot of merit. I will add one more to the list that I found to help foster a useful attitude: " Mastery" by George Leonard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eli_a Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Ben Stoeger’s book match mentality is great for someone just starting in this sport like myself. A lot of truths in the book that might upset some people but it’s definitely a book I’d recommend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuffintopMarksman Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 While not exactly along the lines of competition, I’ve found Bill Jordan’s “No Second Place Winner” to be enlightening commentary on mentality and real-world situations (ya know, that “practical” word that seems to have subsided in importance in some competition). One of the earliest widespread texts on gun fighting and it’s written by a world class exhibition shooter. It is also educational to see what gear and technique has stood the test of time.

BrianPurkiss Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 The Dry Fire Primer is a great one. It is different than all of the other dry fire books out there as it is mostly a bunch of short rapid fire tips. A lot of those things you slowly pick up on over the years, but it helps you shortcut all those small tips. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/1983427535/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
