Week 54: F-PAR Failure Drill
results may be posted until 11:59pm EST on Monday 26-November-2012.
by Todd Louis Green
Range: 7yd
Target: A-zone (USPSA, 8" circle, or 8.5x11 sheet of paper) and 3x5 card
Start position: holstered
Rounds fired: 80
You will need a shot timer for this drill and you will need to know how to operate the PAR function.
This is another Floating PAR (http://pistol-forum.com/showthread.php?5396-Week-45-F-PAR-High-Draw).
For this week, each draw starts with three shots to the body (large target) followed by one shot to the head (3x5). Begin with a PAR time that you can confidently get 100% hits.
Draw and fire three to the body, one to the head. If you score all hits, reduce the PAR time by 0.1 seconds. If miss one, increase the PAR by 0.1 seconds; if you miss two or more shots, increase the PAR by 0.2 seconds. Do not make incremental changes greater than this even if your times are much farther from the PAR.
Draw and fire two again with the new PAR. Repeat the process (subtracting 0.1 seconds for 100% hits or adding 0.1-0.2 seconds when there is a miss) until you've performed a total of 20 4-shot draws.
Please report the following when you post your results in this thread:
Body target used
Start position (open holster, concealed, retention holster)
Starting PAR
Lowest PAR with 100% hit
Final PAR (20th draw)
(if you cannot draw from a holster, you may participate by shooting the drill from the ready position instead; but that really sucks, so you should find a real range that will allow you to train with drawing and movement--kind of what happens in the real world. Consider joining a USPSA or IDPA club, as you have to move in those sports...)
Training with firearms is an inherently dangerous activity. Be sure to follow all safety protocols when using firearms or practicing these drills. These drills are provided for information purposes only. Use at your own risk.
