Speed and Accuracy in Shooting: An Illusion?

Above all, our clients receive experience in shooter private development, intensive lessons in safety, gun handling, the various types of pistol options you own, the fundamentals of pistol marksmanship, various pistol firing positions, several practical exercises on the firing range, and a summary of pistol sports and activities. Traditionally, one can train to be extremely accurate for such disciplines as Bullseye Shooting (a term applicable to shooting sports where the objective is to score points by hitting a round shooting target as close to the center as possible with slow precision fire at varied distances) and other slow-fire (non-timed) round placement disciplines.

Mastering the Balance of Speed and Accuracy

One can additionally train for speed, such as rapid deployment (presenting the handgun from the holster from either open or concealed carry at or under one second), splits (time measured between shots on the same target), and transitions (time measured between shots on multiple targets). Completely disregarding accuracy, speed training is designed to find your maximum mechanical capability (for example, shooting six rounds into the berm with no target as rapidly as you are mechanically able). Suppose your maximum mechanical capability firing six rounds at five yards into a berm with no target is over 2 seconds. In that case, you cannot expect greater performance (sub-2 seconds) by adding a target (introducing another layer of complexity and skill to the initial task).

Shooters who take their pure accuracy training and try to combine it with their isolated speed training quickly discover the precarious balancing act between speed and accuracy.
