I decided to go ahead and post the June newsletter. I thought more of you might be able to shoot the Drill of the Month over the long weekend.

First, my thanks to Tom Givens for posting. I look forward to following the link monthly. I try to shoot most of what he publishes, and appreciate all the other content.
I saw the Super Test-have shot it before-and plan to run it again, it is all good stuff. I am curious to read others opinions on order of distance, or in the case of a single distance CoF, like the 5 yard Roundup. Does anyone ever switch the order up? Examples:
1. With the Super Test, the first distance is at 5 yards. Is there any issue with starting at the 15 yard distance and moving in(or moving target closer so one ends up at 5)? My logic, such as it is, is I’d rather finish at the closer distance as it seems more “practical”
2. Thinking somewhat similar on the Roundup; the last shot, a single from the holster, seems like it would be the most common “on demand” task in an emergency, so why not have that as the last rep sometime?
Comments, anyone?

First time shooting this gun.
First time shooting this ammo.
I don’t practice with J frames because ouchy.
My DASA gamer Shadow 2 is really robust training for revolvers as well.

As far as practicing with competition rigs making you better such that you don't need much practice on J frames - well, opinions vary. I guess all those J frame classes are waste of time from our SMEs.

It’s not an opinion. In my case at my level of shooting, that’s the reality.

Most people aren’t going to put in the work to get to this level.

But it takes less time than most people spend watching TV, IMO.



@Tom Givens I’m happy to talk about the how and why this is possible any time. It’s not realistic for most people but it’s an interesting exercise in mechanics and learning theory.
