Following TLG’s sample dry fire routine.
Week 3, Day 5, shooter’s choice.
I can do whatever I want today (other than nothing). Given my recent increase in shooting my BUG and seeing what I’m seeing there, I opted to do the basic routine but with my S&W 442.
- 20 reps of wall drill from extension 2H
- 5 reps of wall drill from extension SHO
- 5 reps of wall drill from extension WHO
- 20 reps of wall drill from press-out 2H
- 5 reps of wall drill from press-out SHO
- 5 reps of wall drill from press-out WHO
The main focus was getting on the trigger faster.
All in all, not hard to do… I think it’s a mental thing as to why I’m going slow. That I know it’s harder to press the trigger: heavier, longer trigger; lighter gun; smaller, harder to grip gun. So the press of that trigger is going to be harder to do, so go slower to ensure the sights aren’t disturbed and the trigger not slapped. But even just letting myself go “at speed” today, I’m still not sure if It was good enough because the sights are bad enough and the grip angle is just slightly different (more downward cant needed). So… hard to tell. What might be good for me to try tomorrow is some live fire with the snub and just press it out fast and get on the trigger fast and see what I see. If what I see live matches what I see dry, and of course I’m getting acceptable hits, then I’ll know what to keep looking for in dry practice as acceptable visual feedback.
