It is a tough one to practice....up in SC when my kids aren't with me I do all kinds of running and shooting.....then add distance...then add obstacles... then after a few hours I am bushed.

Why I believe ones training should be 3 tiered. 1- Tactics - whatever that may be like armed, unarmed skill set or combination there of, 2 - Strength training, and 3 - Conditioning.

I agree...we see alot of people with Concealed Weapons Licenses who don't invest in any training at all. And some actually walk around with pistols! Truth is, a high percentage of people with CWL's don't carry their firearm much, let alone train. Their strength training is considered 12 ounce curls of beer and Conditioning is something you put in your hair to keep it in place.

The guys I shoot with work on these kinds of scenarios, by playing "horse" where we alternate setting up the situations. We have props, walls, barrels and a CPR dummy you have to act like you are doing chest compressions on while shooting. Scored by time and accuracy.

Shooting at steel from that distance is strictly verboten at every range I've ever been a member of!

I was thinking that was pretty close, he is moving in the opposite direction from the steel.

I suspect that those of us (me, for sure, as I cannot remember the last time I had a confrontational situation) who do not do serious self defense training may very well carry and indeed practice target shooting, know how to handle our weapons in a range situation but are really not ready for the event where we will indeed need the skills necessary to survive an attack. By far our best defense is situational awareness and avoiding those areas where problems are prevalent. I wish I had been more focused on training over the years. Thank you for the tips in this thread. Dennis

That's one of the many skills brownie taught us in the Threat Focused Pistol Class Last November in Volusia.
Of course, in the class we were shooting paper, not steel.

Yup, the 20 degree downtilt and soft ground area in that bay, we had zero splashback. When I shoot those steel targets up in SC we use the same downtilt and a row of bales of hay...24" by 24" by 4'long.....in front of them
