The Tiny Grasp Drill is an indoor range-friendly variation of the Three Grasp Drill. It focuses on safety, accuracy, and agility in gunhandling. The start position can be any of the following, depending on range restrictions: holstered and concealed, holstered, ready, or loaded and laying on shooting bench.
String 1: Set up the target at 3 yards. Top row of targets - from your start position, at the beep, fire one shot freestyle at the middle circle, transition grip to strong hand only and fire one shot at the outer circle on your nondominant side, transition grip to support hand only and fire one shot at the outer circle on your dominant side. Repeat String 1 until you have done it four times total. Record your time for each string.
String 2: Set up the target at 7 yards. Bottom row of targets - from your start position, at the beep, fire one shot freestyle at the middle circle, transition grip to strong hand only and fire one shot at the outer circle on your nondominant side, transition grip to support hand only and fire one shot at the outer circle on your dominant side. Repeat String 2 until you have done it four times total. Record your time for each string.
Make sure to get finger in register prior to every grip transition!
If your gun has a manual safety or decocking lever, set safety or decock prior to transitioning grip, if feasible for you.
Scoring: Your final score is your total time for all strings combined, plus one second per missed shot.
