The Test With No Name

Just made up this target, which includes the 8" version of the B8 target, along with 2 1" squares (the circles around the 1" squares are only 3" instead of the original 4"). This should print pretty close to exact size on a standard 8.5x11 printer. I test printed the PDF version, and selected "actual size" when printing, and it came out pretty damn close. Might vary a little based on your printer.

And a version if you are printing on legal paper, didn't change the sizes of these elements, but added some of the small circles up top:

Yeah, hypno-toad is probably better than mickey. For a while it looked like cookie monster to me (When I was trying with 4" circles around the squares).

Yeah, Cookie Monster was what was in my head, but I couldn't put words to it.

Okay, proceed with real thread about training.

Today?s attempts (and general range trip) was a total failure. No video for you guys (failure 1). All I can say, is that getting a sub 6sec run is NOT easy at all (failure 2). Getting ANY run clean while attempting a normal bill pace is difficult.

Here is my approach-

-stick a leisurely draw (anything sub 1.5 is fine) getting a PERFECT lockup is much more important than getting a sub sec draw for this. It?s deceiving, because 5yd is close and work at that distance is usually purely a speed game for me. Not so with this. Gotta remind myself that circle targets of similar area are always harder to rep on than the COM A, and that while it is closer, it?s still much more difficult.

-manage .22-.25 splits for the B8 rings (which is difficult for me, and I have to consciously slow down, because I can?t routinely make all my hits at my standard.16-.18 pace)

-strive for sub second shots in the squares. For me, this is mentally an extreme trigger commitment game. I am forcing myself to press the shot earlier than I want to, but I?ve got to learn not to over-confirm sight picture.

Would love to know how you guys did/do.

Did not manage any sub 6sec drill (clean) today.

got a pile of them printed up for sometime later this week. I don't expect I'll be anywhere near 6 seconds.

I'm new to pistol & therefore going to try for under 15.

Dan512 and I hit the range today. Mostly focused on longer range pistol but right before we packed up I put up one of DenverGP’s targets and shot a 6.08 clean. Best before today was 7.5 sec.
