Shoot-4-Ever Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I have been shooting shotguns, rifle and handguns for many years. I shoot in amateur league shoots at local gun clubs and I have my own plinking range where I shoot for fun with the family. I want to take the next step (whatever that is) into more proficient handgunning. I want to purchase a good book or DVD from Brian's book/CD/combo website that would fit my needs. I don't have a specific goal as far as IPSC, Particle, IDPA, self defense etc. I just enjoy shooting and plinking and I would like to become a little faster and more accurate at shooting and to develop at my own pace, in my own back yard, with the help of a DVD or book. I enjoy .22 shooting as much, or more than center fire. I have the basic revolver and semi-auto handgun equipment I need to get started. No race guns or competition gear in my closet, but I do have basic good quality guns to keep me interested for awhile. I think I have a good foundation. I reload, I hunt and I help introduce new shooters to get started in the shooting sports, and safety is always first with me. The main question......What one or two books/DVD’s would you suggest I start with? My one goal is to enjoy shooting. I don't want to be in constant training or in boot-camp, or purchase a 43 set library of training media to get started. I want to expand in speed and accuracy, and do it at my own pace to see where it takes me. Do you have any recommendation of Brians books or DVD's that would fit my needs?

uscbigdawg Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Kind of a do-everything combo would be (in my opinion): - PSV Vol. 1-3 by Matt Burkett (you can then add vols. 4, 5 & 6 as desired) - Practical Shooting Manual by Matt Burkett (helps to read this before watching the videos) - Steve Anderson's dry fire books (1st one is awesome, but both are great!) - Last and certainly not least, "Practical Shooting Beyond Fundamentals" by our own Brian Enos Other books that I can highly recommend are: - With Winning in Mind by Lanny Basham - Shooting from Within by J. Michael Plaxco - Both books from Saul Kirsch Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AikiDale Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Get Brian's book. Everything you need is in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revopop Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 +1. If you're only going to get one thing, make sure it's Brian's book. I shot for 4 years before I read it, and it completely changed my approach to shooting, not just practical shooting but all types of shooting. By the end of the first chapter I was kicking myself for not having read it sooner. I cannot recommend it more highly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
