First gun plus learning appendix draw and re-holstering......... plus body armor, plus competition......
Recipe for disaster?
My previous routine was about 30 minutes so my initial stages of SWYNTS cut that time in half.
To begin with, I actually reduced the time. I did some warm ups then trigger control at speed, then ten reps of the 3 SWYNTS drills. That only took 12-15 minutes. The results became obvious at about...
^^^ It has been great for me too. Try it for 30 days, you will be surprised at the improvement.
Good stuff! I understand what you're saying and also agree with JCS's advice to stop changing things and just do it! I will stick with 3:00 and drill it in! I don't have the data you mentioned and it...
OK, it's been a few weeks since I checked in on this thread. I had to lessen my dry fire schedule as I was developing some pain in my finger joints. Some claim it is old age but nah, can't be true....
I've been paying close attention to the initial grip out of the holster. As mentioned. the grip and the resulting index makes all the difference in achieving the par times. My mount is not...
Well this thread seems to have died a sudden death. I appreciate the initiative and input from JCN and also Clusterfrack. I am now about 5 weeks into the process and I am definitely seeing much more...
MVS you're verbalizing exactly what I'm experiencing. The index from draw is crucial in making the par times. If I have a good index, the 2 second and 1.5 second times seem like an eternity. At the 2...
I recently bought a pair of the 100's and am not very impressed. They block out your shot noise and any that you are very close to. It is as if they have a 10 ft radius around you in which they are...
Week 3 is in the books. I was able to dry fire five times last week, live fire twice and shot one outlaw match. I seem to be cycling back and forth on seeing what I'm happy with on my dry fire. Some...
Looking forward to this one!

Similarly, there is never a point where you should feel badly about your current performance because in two weeks you’ll be better. Unless you don’t work at it.
I've already...
I'm two and a half weeks into the experiment. For my dry fire area I have about 11 yards in my basement. I printed a 1" dot in the center of a piece of paper and have been using it at 11 yards to...
JCS I do some warm up which has involved shoulders and arms but it's becoming obvious the hands need to be included. One of my old habits of gripping too hard with my trigger hand is proving hard...
Two weeks into SWYNTS.
I got in six dry fire sessions, one live run and one match. I'm retired so getting time to dry fire is not as much a problem but I may have over done it a little. My old...
[QUOTE=Clusterfrack;1449886]I practice trigger pulls as a specific dryfire exercise, ...........
I'm curious about your specific trigger pull exercise. I do Stoeger's Trigger Control At Speed...
It's been an interesting week. Five Dry Fire sessions, one live fire session and one match.
I don't think I was being true to myself in my dry fire practice.
The next DF session after my...
Today was my first attempt at live fire on SWYNTS. It was eye opening to say the least. I've heard several times that switching from dry to live adds 25% to your times and that seemed to be true for...
OK, I guess today was my official Day 1. It was dry fire only and I hope to do my first live run tomorrow. I'm using a full size 4" PDP from OWB at 3:00. Today I used a credit card sliver to keep the...
I'm a little late to the party. I saw this thread early on and got distracted with who knows what. Dry fired this last night and must say, it is just what I need. I dry fire 3-4 times per week and...
I've got 2 XL's. The first broke a trigger return spring at about 7,500 rounds. Sig CS fixed and returned it quickly. About 1,000 through it since with no problems. Second at about 2,500 rounds and...
Lots of great info in this thread and I appreciate the wisdom. I'm going to be camping in grizzly territory for a few weeks soon. What slug would be best for camp defense out of a Benelli M1?
I bought a 920 last September and currently have about 4,800 rounds through it. Similar to Mr Weems, I had a few failures to feed during the first 50 rounds. Since that point if has run flawlessly....
