Throttle Control Drill - Rifle

Learn to control your trigger speed while being accurate. Many shooters want to shoot fast but when they try the target looks like swiss cheese. The main issue is they haven't been shown how to build a “cadence” with their firearm. They don’t know how fast they can pull the trigger and still be accurate. They have no clue how to shoot faster and maintain accuracy. This course follows the phrase “Slow is required here — speed is allowed there.”

         Course Fundamentals:

- Speed up your trigger pull

- Adjust speed depending on the need for accuracy of your shot”

- Learn your personal distance from the target to balance speed and accuracy

2” circles for accuracy versus 6” circle for speed drill at varying distances

The key to understanding the fundamental of “cadence’ is to say your building a rhythm with your firearm. The drills in this SBC teach you just that, sync your firearm with your skill. Learn when to slow down for accuracy and what size and distance you can speed up to, to maintain that accuracy.
