Training Session 'Breakdown'

Hi all,

Just wondering on average how you all break down your training sessions as far as dry fire, 'blank target' and 'regulation target' (scoring rings, bull) shooting. Do you vary by daily session?

Thanks,

John

I vary it from session to session and depends on what discipline I'm training. For precision AP;

I try and do 2 or 3 dry firing sessions at home each week, but normally only manage 1. Blank targets again depend on what I'm trying to train; That's good for sight alignment, follow through etc.

I tend however to concentrate on specific elements that I (or my coach) felt needed developing. Having a shooting journals that details every comp and training session helps that process, vis;

Goals
Were they acheived ?
Strengths
Areas for development

I will just either go back to the last days training and see what I felt needed work, or go back a few days and see what cropped up.

I then try and target single specific elements of the shot cycle to work on in a concentrated fashion (20-30 shots max each element).

You're not the only one - I would bet 90%+ of shooters don't keep one, certainly not a proper one.
