Shooting On The Move Practice

Dave Harrington shows a very clever drill/stage. It focuses on shooting on the move. However he wants to focus on the moving so he brings a treadmill out to the range. One aspect to the treadmill is that the targets remain at the same distance. You can take that as a positive or a negative. I like to think of it as a challenge. When moving forward and engaging stationary targets, the targets get larger as you approach them. Thereby making them easier to hit. In Dave’s drill, you have to be smooth and steady on the treadmill while still making your shots count. You can hear he is out of breath after the drill. Looks like fun. If you plan on trying this, just like any physical activity with a firearm, be safe.

    Well, by taking the treadmill to the range his neighbors finally got it out of his front yard next to his mustang on cinder blocks.

    Look it's a gerbil with a gun! Just looks like fun...but it's not perfect. You aren't really moving so the target appears to not be moving so you don't have to track it as you are moving on angles. Still a fun drill.
