Chris iliff Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 (edited) It's warming up finally and I was thinking maybe I could get some times on the plate rack with weak hand at ten yards. 6 PLATES 10 YARDS HANDS AT SIDES RELAXED DRAW AND XFER TO WEAK HAND PLEASE POST TIME EQUIPMENT CLASS Could use six paper plates, evenly spaced and stapled to a 2x4, make sure you get your hits.

Front Man Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 See how fast you can do it clean and go from there. Very worthy goal. I need a plate rack bad! FM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris iliff Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 (edited) Sorry it took two days, but here are my results. I did about 15 dryfire runs and could consistently beat a par time of 6 seconds. Then the fun began. I ran it ten times. I list the draw, total time, and # of plates made up to finish run. I'm a "C" class shooter. Open gun. TIME, DRAW, MISSED/MADE UPS 9.62, 2.33, 3 7.26, 2.27, 2 7.56, 2.75, 1 8.16, 2.72, 1 6.97, 2.33, 1 6.91, 2.06, 1 7.49, 2.38, 1 6.13, 2.63, 0 7.93, 2.13, 3 5.88, 2.44, 0 On run 9 I pushed trying to beat 6 seconds, it didn't get me much. On run 10 I was completely relaxed and repeated the mantra "shoot what you see." Not my best draw time, but like run 8 I didn't push and it worked better for me.

Front Man Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Kool Drill! 8 & 10 are what you want consistently! FM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris iliff Posted March 14, 2008 Author Share Posted March 14, 2008 Kool Drill! 8 & 10 are what you want consistently! FM Yeah, I really tried to open up and just feel the deal. I thought about #8 run and tried to duplicate that on #10. Worked good. #9 run was me getting excited about #8 and thinking, thinking, thinking, I could do better. The first 3 or 4 runs are pure excitement and speed focused. I am starting to understand some points I learned reading Brian's and Lanny's books. The mind is powerful. I need practice. NOTE: U DON"T HAVE TO DO 10 RUNS, PLEASE SOMEBODY POST SOME TIMES, CLASS, AND EQUIPMENT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemphisMechanic Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 (edited) Could use six paper plates, evenly spaced and stapled to a 2x4, make sure you get your hits. People keep saying that, but I don't believe it. I can drill paper plates okay... But nothing makes you miss like those damn steel plates. The difference is purely psychological, but it's there. I do love plate racks: Nothing keeps you sight-focused like steel. Start gazing at the plates, and they stop dropping. Every time.

Flexmoney Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 it sounds like a cool drill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenite Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I like weak hand drills, but I won’t be posting my times, I always get at least one miss and my 6 to 8 sec reloads make my times look really bad. If you get under 6 sec consistently you need to move back to 20 yards. Nice drill. Leonard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
