One of the common questions shooters get is "What should I practice?" The right answer, "Everything", is a hard thing for most folks to swallow. Its like a big elephant - trying to eat the whole thing at once is impossible, and its not always obvious where to take the first bite from. In late 2007, DR Practice Shooting wrote a blog article on the Re-Gun blog that describes how to determine exactly what to practice first. That gets you some specifics on what to focus on, but doesn't really give you a plan on how to work on them. It also doesn't add in general skills practice - you need to maintain that while focusing on the stuff that needs the most work.

After some research around kinesiology and motor learning, DR discovered something interesting - the short of it is, psuedo-random practice works better for long term skill retention than hundreds of repetitions of an individual skill (in kinesiology terms, this is referred to as "blocked" practice - ie, a "block" of one skill). This blocked out practice works for learning a new skill's movements and intricacies - once you know the moves, though, moving toward a more random pattern may result in slower gains on each skill in a particular practice session - but you'll retain more of those gains in the next practice session and match.

1.0 is a deck that focuses on basic practical shooting skills. The drills in this deck involve a minimal amount of equipment, relatively short distances, and relatively easy target presentations. This set of properties makes it a sort of "every man" practice tool - its usable in dry fire as well as live fire, the full set of drills can be used on almost any range, and basically every shooter can benefit from the drills as they are written on the cards. The drills can be scaled easily, too, to make them harder as required (more on scaling below). And, its usable for any of the practical shooting sports - USPSA, IPSC, IDPA, pistol for various multi-gun and 3-gun events, etc.

a real training tool with a very high fun factor and you can play cards if you're not shooting ;-)

Although I really like the idea of the training deck and the versification it can bring you in traing, I found this package a bit disappointing. A lot of the excercises are quite similar and having used them a couple of times during training, I quickly felt no motivation at all to use the deck. Maybe I'm blessed with more than enough imagination to keep my practise fresh and diversified on my own account. I'll try to find someone with more need for this tool and give it as a present :-)

Very nice practice tool. It's compact so it doesn't take much place in your range bag and it's very easy to use. You just draw a card and shoot. I recommend it to everyone.

Helpfull training tool, practical in use and straight forward in guiding new shooters for a standard training session. Gives a good guideline for training overall skills in practical pistol shooting
