It’s been no secret that I’m fond of my LaserLyte rounds and time on my indoor “range”. With my Tactical Pistol course coming up Saturday – and not wanting to make a fool of myself – I’ve been working my draw quite a bit this week on a clean draw stroke with a sub-2 second par time. I thought I’d prep a quick “target’s eye view” of what this process looks like.
- Weapon: Glock17
- Holster: Blackhawk IWB Leather
- Distance: Reduced size IDPA target simulating 21 feet
- Timer: And Android timer app set for a par time of 2 seconds
- Stance: Modified Weaver, 2-hand, full extension
As they say . . . . . “Let’s go to the tape!”
Nothing tricky here. I want a clean draw stroke, single hand only, 2-hand, full extension and a part time under 2 seconds. My standard goal is 80% combat effective hits.
Not a bad way, IMNSHO, to polish your skills.

Yep, good practice and it WORKS!
ReplyDeleteI think the other thing I like about it is that the "range" is seconds away from my desk. So, I do it more. And, a heck of a lot cheaper! I think my draw is smoothing out over this fall/winter. Guess Saturday will tell the tale! :)
DeleteNice, nice, nice!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ms. A - nice to have you drop by! I enjoyed your conversation with M today - she obviously keep you on your toes!! :)
DeleteI need to get back out again, with the travels to check on family, there's been no range time in a while.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea. What timer app are you using on your phone?
ReplyDeleteHey JT, thanks for dropping by. I use the "IPSC Shot Timer". It's free from the Play store for Android phones. Honestly, it works very, very well.
