Week 228: AMRAP From The Draw

Results may be posted until September 4th, 2017.

Designed by: Todd Louis Green
Range: 7 yards
Target: 8" circle
Start Position: Holstered
Rounds Fired: Varies

This is another AMRAP drill. "AMRAP" means As Many Rounds As Possible.

First, establish a baseline. Time yourself drawing and firing three hits on an 8" circle at seven yards. For the AMRAP par time, round up to the next highest half second. So e.g. if you scored 2.15 seconds, your par for this drill will be 2.5 seconds.

Next, using that par time, draw and hit the target as many times as you can in the allotted time. After each run, check the target and the timer to make sure you know how many actual hits you scored within the time limit.

Starting position is holstered. Whether you use an open holster, retention holster, or concealed holster is up to you. Just be consistent and start the same way each time. If you cannot draw from a holster at your range, simply indicate what starting position you used.

You'll repeat the drill a total of ten times. With each repetition, try to push yourself a little bit harder to make just one more hit.

Please report the following when you post your results in this thread:

Starting position (open, concealed, or retention)
Number of shots fired and number of hits for each rep

H/T to bigslim for the tracking sheet!
First time for this drill- it actually took me two tries to put 3 rounds on target at 7 yards. I wanted to ensure that I got the three rounds in- so I ended with a very slow 5 second PAR time. I think this ended up adding to my confidence because I really started to speed up as I progressed through the drill. I actually ran out of my 300 training rounds I allotted for the day and dipped into some extra carry ammo. Great drill from Mr_White- again- it really helped show me what I could do as I gained confidence from my first set of rounds to the final rounds.

Thanks! I only posted it though - Todd Green created it or at least brought it to my attention.

Ran this sorta incorrectly. Used a 3x5 and 2 sec par, from concealment under a polo with my g19.

Overall scored 14 hits and 6 misses (not all captured since missing paper backer on right). I'd run this again more aggressively to see if I can tighten up the trigger and grip work a bit. Never tried 3 shots since I was inconsistent on 2 shots at best, but would be interesting to see what happens.
