My week with 700+ Woman Shooters & Why They’re The Future of Shooting
Last week, I had the privilege to teach at the A Girl And A Gun national conference for the 7th year in a row. It was in beautiful Grand Junction Colorado at the Cameo Shooting Complex and it was another incredible experience. 700+ women shooters from 47 states took blocks of instruction on everything…
He went from certain failure to top-of-class…in minutes
A few years ago, I got a text from the owner of a coffee shop that I frequented. His son wanted to be a state trooper and was at the academy, but he was days away from failing out because he couldn’t pass the firearms qualification. He had one more shot. His instructors liked him…a…
How a 47 year old “American Rifleman” ad can help us today…
I recently bought something kind of odd. It’s a 47 year old magazine ad from American Rifleman! And there is a super-important lesson in this ad that we can learn from today: Pretty cool, isn’t it? Pistol mounted optics have definitely come a long way, but it’s humbling to know that we can simultaneously…
Myth of Bindon or Occluded Aiming
A shooter PM’d me a picture of a target (below) where he was doing occluded shooting (tape over the front of his pistol optic) and shot 3 tight slow fire groups at 15 yards…but they were all off to the left. When he didn’t have tape on the lens, he was nailing the bullseye. This…
Distance shots with a red dot on a subcompact
I’ve got a couple of cool things for you today. First is a “drill” that was created last year to commemorate Eli Dicken’s life-saving actions at the Greenwood Park Mall in Greenwood IN. Early reports said that he engaged the shooter from 43 yards away, hitting with 8/10 shots fired. So, at the time, I decided…
Dan Bongino shares a “fight to your gun” video
I got an awesome video today from Robert…he said, “Coffee cup in the face on video it worked great” Notice how behind-the-curve he is as he turns around. He’s trapped in a fatal funnel with a gun pointed at him…inches away. I am not sure if this husband/dad has gone through our “Fight To…
Why ‘eye dominance’ is critical for pistol success
Shooters oftentimes have early success or frustration with shooting because of vision issues, like eye dominance. Eye dominance issues have a big impact on shooting performance and enjoyment, but the “normal” eye dominance test you see in almost every online video and in-person class gives the wrong answer 25% or more of the time. For…
Pear Pie & why the ‘shape of your pistol groups’ matters
I’ve got a couple of ads running on FB that have had hundreds of comments. They’re talking about pistol shooting errors and the image is a simple target with a low-left group. Several of the comments have been “3 clicks up, 3 clicks right. Done.” or, “Kentucky windage…hold up and right and you’re good.” In some…

Here’s a quick list of 9 instances where good guys with pistols took out bad guys with shoulder mounted weapons: May 3, 2015 Curtis Culwell Center in Garland TX. 59 year old officer Greg Stevens began taking rifle fire from 2 attackers at a distance of 15 yards who were both wearing body armor and…
How to improve pistol accuracy IMMEDIATELY!
Next time you’re at the range shooting a pistol and you’re not hitting where you want or as tight of groups as you want, what can you do—RIGHT NOW—to shoot better with your very next shots? Even if you’re shooting the dreaded low-left groups (or low-right for right handers). Or if you’re flinching in anticipation—even…
I want to give you instant access to a valuable PDF with 3 drills you can do with or without a pistol that will give you tighter, faster groups the next time you go to the range.
You’ll learn how to fix low-left groups, shoot better with both eyes open (even with cross-eye dominance) and make your sights come into immediate, automatic alignment with the target each time you draw.
