How to use this book

You can work your way through the book chronologically, trying to complete all drills in sequence, but that is not our recommendation.

We suggest you take a good honest look at your current shooting level and try to determine your strong and weak skills. Then go straight to the points requiring work. Practice those first.

Don’t work on more than two or three skill sets per practice. Do enough repetitions to allow the technique to sink in, and focus more on quality and precision, less on speed and quantity.

Always remember: Practice Makes Permanent, Not Perfect. Only Perfect Practice makes Perfect! Always pay close attention to the quality of your practice and do not allow yourself to become lazy or careless on the practice range. A bad practice can actually harm more than help, and you would have been better off not training at all on that day.

Stay focused, stay motivated and stay structured, and we will soon see you on the podium!
