Train for Real-Life Threats: Experts Share Scanning Drills
In response to the human body's natural stress reaction, which includes tunnel vision, experts recommend learning to scan and assess peripheral areas after initial shots. This helps to identify and address adjacent threats.
Two drills, developed by Dave Maxfield, aid in practicing this skill. The 'Three, Two, One Routine' involves firing at a primary target from varying distances - three, two, and one yard - then scanning five times at each distance. This helps simulate real-life encounters and encourages proper follow-through.
The 'Failure Check Routine' involves firing two shots at a primary target, scanning to a secondary target five yards away, firing two shots, then returning to the primary target for a head shot. This drill helps to practice scanning and assessing for secondary threats while engaging a primary target.
Both drills, 'The Three, Two, One Routine' and 'The Failure Check Routine', are designed to train participants to scan and assess peripheral areas effectively. They remind us that danger can come from any direction in a 360-degree world, and prompt us to stay vigilant and prepared.
