I've spent my life training the world's most elite warriors, the US Navy SEALs. One day I came home from a long deployment and realized my two boys needed me more than the SEAL Teams. After 20 years serving my country, it was time to grow up - and become a father.
I've taken my experience as a Master Training Specialist (and writing the US Navy SEAL Sniper Manual) and authored two bestselling books, How to Shoot Like a Navy SEAL and Navy SEAL Shooting, based on the New Rules of Marksmanship.
I'm on a mission to change the way people like you learn elite-level skills. Well, that's not right either... The way we reach the top in any skilled endeavor is the same; my mission - is to teach you how to do it using science-based techniques you can use at home.
I'll post free firearms training-related videos and products I believe will help you learn to shoot faster and easier, and live like a warrior!
Chris Saw your. video yesterday, visited the range today, and you are 100% right. I focused on the front sight and all were within a 2 inch circle. I started at 15 feet, then 21 feet, them 30 feet.. However at 45 feet I was only at about a 6 inch circle. Your comment were great, and I improved IMMEDIATELY. Thanks a lot. Also I remembered to take a breath after every 2 or 3 rounds. By the way this was a great improvement over the was the Marine Corps trained us yo pistol shoot. Jim MacKay
Neither of these tests work for me as described. Whether it's the shape made by my hands, my finger or any distant object, the same thing happens: If I focus on the distant object the near object (i.e., my hands or finger) appears double -- One for each eye. If I focus on the near object, the distant object appears double -- One for each eye. I can choose the hand, finger or object as seen by either eye and the results are the same (but opposite). No one eye "comes out on top", so to speak. Does this mean I have no dominant eye? Of course, fatigue and changes in my eyes also comes into play. Depending on the time of day and even the time elapsed since my last eye exam (and subsequently, latest eye glasses) one eye or the other may be clearer. In the past I've always thought my left was dominant but that was because it was generally stronger (which apparently was false). At this point I can't say I can shoot better with one eye or the other, but hopefully I'll be able to determine that. With a rifle, since I'm right-handed my right eye is more convenient but not always better.
I feel like nowadays there's so many good kydex holster makers that it's completely on you if you buy a shitty one. Do your research, buy once cry one. That being said, I dont own one of these, but I did just pick up a p365(my current carry gun is a p365xl), and thanks to this review I'm gonna try out ZZZ. Thanks for review/info.
The picture was not moving even without the sight tho. But I certainly give it a try, I`m fairly good at clays but totally suck with handguns, just want to learn
It works, been shooting my 9mm that way since day 1. Working on crosseye dominance with shotgun now, much harder to fix. I like Ben H. Eye rail product, going to try it.
This guy is the fuckin man. Some of THE BEST shooting instruction I’ve ever seen. Not like most other guys that show all the flashy cool stuff that takes YEARS to master and aren’t practical anyway. Well done brother. Got your book and a subscription too! 👊
People don’t focus on the front sight because they would rather pay 500 dollars for a red dot for “target focus,” even though focusing on the dot is basically the same as front sight focus. In other words, people are lazy.
@@joer8386 last I checked, if you want to hit a target with a red dot, you had to put the red dot on the target. And my groups say otherwise, because I focus on the red dot, and get amazing results.
Well, I picked the challenge to put my finances in order. Then I invested in cryptocurrency, stocks, through the assistance of my discretionary fund manager
Trading is difficult, I'd spend the five grand on education for trading. It's not easy. Investing is different, that's easier. Short term or long term gain is the question.
If you're not locking your elbows or shooting one handed what's the point of lining your grip with your arm? Your wrists are going to be bent and it feels very uncomfortable and it makes the pistol want to point towards your weak side. I've never understood why people say line it up with your arm because it's bad from to lock your elbows.
Let me get this straight, you are telling the man that wrote the us navy seal sniper training man ual that he has bad form. 😂 I have followed his instructions on technique and my speed and accuracy have improved vastly. It is far beyond what years of law enforcement firearms training taught me.
@@Dr.I.C.Spots247 I didn't say "he" had bad form. He never showed it in the video so I have no idea. I said it was bad form to lock your elbows. Do you lock yours when you shoot? I simply asked a question to get an understanding of why most people say to line the pistol up so the recoil goes straight back into your arm. If your wrist are bent what's the point in doing that? It would only apply if you are shooting one handed or you lock your elbows.
Chris, what do people who have had Lens implants do? They have a fixed focal length and can't flex the lenses in their eyes to truly focus the way you describe.
Thanks for the great advice. I haven’t been doing any of these things only on occasion and you’re correct when I relax breathe and enjoy what I’m doing I stay within a 6 inch neither circumference. I guess my biggest issue is that I want to do better when I’m not really doing that badly. I shoot for fun I’m not interested in protecting myself and I shoot indoors. As a senior it gives me something to do I like to excel at my passions. Thanks again for the great advice.
How do you take this principle and use it for 2 eye shooting, I almost exclusively shoot 2 eyes and I’m good at it but I definitely don’t front sight focus because if I do then there’s two targets and it becomes impossible to aim. So I normally target focus. Is it possible to do this with two eyes or is this purely for single eye shooting
Fail. There's a couple of men, that viewers ought to take grip advice from, Dan Horner and Doug Koenig, Taran Butler, the Miculek's, Max Michel if he weren't so, well, Max. Grip is THE MOST important aspect of good pistol shooting. When a shooter takes this high hard grip on the pistol, as demonstrated here, if he's right handed, the pistol is pointed left. He's impacting low left. the novice instructor will say, "Dang it Jim, you're anticipating recoil!" Kinda, but really, his timing is just off. Every top shooter loads the energy at just the right moment to keep the muzzle on the target. It's natural. Not flinching, it's just inexperienced timing. Overgriping is common because the proliferation of this overgrip technique demonstrated in this video. It's the grip technique almost everyone teaches. Instead, with a good grip, the gun must naturally point at your target, aligned under your dominant eye. Not muscled onto the A zone, but naturally pointing right at the A zone, before it even comes up to the shooters line of sight. Right out the holster it's on the A zone. Most instructors would look at Dan Horner's grip and would try to correct it, "You're under-gripping it son!"... then he'd be like, "Yo Homie, Check out my Instagram." (I can hear him saying it). Grip strength? What about Lena Miculek, and other top women shooters that can out shoot most men? Technique can trump strength.
Sent for two of your books 3 days ago. One DOJO, one master. Comment below is a testament to "I really had that ah ha moment, and it changed me forever".
Guess what Chris!!! Went to gun range first time since Viet Nam this AM. 1st shot 5-ring...made me giddy. Forgot and mistakenly "LOOKED" at front blade for #2 - 1 cm under shot 1; (internal voice: BS you know what you did return to your training!!!) GET THIS: shots 3,4,5 through SAME HOLE as #1. I've got the target and showed it to management at range. Your training is what allowed me to BEGIN TO TRAIN WELL and make this SPECTACULAR DEPARTURE FROM PAST HABITS. Bays, Sgt USMC 65-69. I'm still green/new. The Marine Corps did not train a one of us children (age 17 - 20) to shoot!!! Thank you and God Bless you and your family sir!
