Ahh, that is a little different from what Jarrett calls his "box drill," due to having a coach. With his you can practice on your own, and you practice strong-side, two hand shooting, though you could substitute and particular type that you needed to work on.
You start facing forward and draw on the beep and fire one round (or two). Repeated a pre-decided number of times. Then turn to the left and on the beep, draw and move the feet smoothly to square hips to the target, present the muzzle 90 degrees to your right and fire one round,etc. Repeat this facing away from the target so you have to turn 180 degrees, then facing to the right, so you again turn 90 degrees but turn keft instead of right. Basically it is about smoothness in your draw and firing plus your footwork. It's not a coaching opportunity like yours is but a practice opportunity once the student has been trained. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: The instructor is to the rear. He gives loud commands to the student. The student will be ordered to move left, right, forward and back. While this is happening, the instructor will shout instructions. The course is set up in a box shape, which the student travels clockwise. The instructor then calls out variations such as direction, shooting stance and method (crouch, one hand, weak hand, point, etc). Any variation is shouted by the instructor (double tap, head shot, etc). Reloads must be made on the move. There are several targets down range, so the instructor may yell "center, head shot, double tap! You get the idea... The multitasking makes shooting difficult and the student must run the gun without thought to be successful. |
