PhotoRecon Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Does anyone have any recommendations on training or practice DVDs that are available that would be of use to new shooters in developing their shooting skills and target practice routines? We've got some new shooters showing up at our range and it would be nice if we had some good DVDs they could watch on their own time at home and then come to the range better prepared.

kimel Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Matt Burkett's vol 1 - 3 helped me out a bunch when I was in that position. He goes through all the basics in that series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgerat Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 +1 Matt Burkett's 1-3 goes through a lot of fundamental things that you wouldn't normally think. Hi-speed low drag stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joecichlid Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I would add #4 to the set as well as IPSC Stratagies, both from Burkett, although they can be a little more advanced but once you get the basics down these are a great addition.

Mo Hepworth Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Matt Burkett's How to practice helps you lay out a plan to get a good range practice. How to shoot faster is great to learn how to shave off time from stages. Saul Kirsch's 3GM is also good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micah Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 3GM combined with a major match dvd done by Saul Kirsch. 3GM will give you the proper technique that you need and watching the worlds best shooters do what they do best will give you something to model after.

DrDeath Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 +1 on the Burkett 1-3 DVDs, they have helped me out a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayouSlide Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Can't go wrong with the entire Burkett DVD series, then pick up 3 GMs to continue your education. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lugnut Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Saul Kirsch is awesome. I highly recommend all his DVDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Knight Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 3GM combined with a major match dvd done by Saul Kirsch. 3GM will give you the proper technique that you need and watching the worlds best shooters do what they do best will give you something to model after. 3GM is one of the best I have watched. I also have some of the Burkett videos. Kirsch also has a set of DVDs where hee is teaching an IPSC class. I think those are the Master Class series. From the previews they look pretty good.

Tzygä Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I like all Matt Burkett's and Saul Kirsch's DVDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwoods Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Master Class series 1 is a good starting video as well as for almost experts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLL1911 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 (edited) Saul Kirsch Master Class I & II is highly recommended. Saul covers all fundamentals of IPSC / USPSA shooting. There is a 3rd DVD with the Master Class series that covers mental conditioning, also pretty good. I am not aware of Matt Burkett's videos, so I cannot comment on that. In my opinion, the 3M DVD (2 DVDs - I only watched the 1st one) are something after you have watched the Master Class. It also covers some fundamentals, but not as detailed as showed in MC I&II - more like "I do this way... and they show it - from the 3 GMs. http://czcustom.com/Master-Class-Series.aspx Edited April 11, 2009 by FLL1911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperD Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I am looking for a used copy of Matt Burkett's Practical Shooting Handgun Techniques, Vol. 1-3. If you have the DVD set in good condition let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironb Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Here is a list of videos that seem like they would be good (for USPSA Pistol): Matt Burkett Volumes 1,2,3,4, and 7 Shooting Techniques of the Grand Masters Shooting Techniques of the Grand Masters volume 2 Master Class Vol. I, II, and III (Saul Kirsch) I have Burkett Volume 7 which seems like it's good for beginers. I've also watched volumes 1,2,3. I have yet to watch any of the others. I'll gladly trade my volume 7 for a volume 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
