I rarely comment but I've watched many. You are an exceptional Instructor. Excellent deconstruction & communication of the fundamental pieces I need to practice. Thank you for your generosity.
This is, without a doubt, one of the most useful dry fire demonstrations I've ever seen. As many have said previously, you are an EXCELLENT instructor.
Thank you so much! I watched to the 10 min mark thinking man I really don’t care about single hand shooting. I got up, got my timer and gun, and in literally 5 min figured out I was introducing ‘too much torque’ on my last two fingers of my firing hand. Adjusted that and pressure application of the trigger.. Literally in 5 min time I had a playing card size sign 25 yards away on my fence and I was staying dead on with my dot throughout the trigger pull. Now I just have to make that muscle memory. You genuinely taught a man to fish today and I am very grateful.
This sir, is dry fire training on a whole different level......! Intensely watched your video from the beginning til the end, wow loaded with incredible information.... Thank you so much for your time effort and most of all your energy...!
Thanks man! Really liked the advice about reversing your draw path from target to holster being your most efficient draw path. Such a simple but perfect idea. Keep it up, we appreciate it!
This was an awesome video! Learned so much and I definitely have so much more to work on! Out of curiosity will you guys consider making a dry file rifle video as well. I Understand that pistol is way more intricate than rifle but I'm curious what things there are to learn with Rifle Dry fire as well. One thing I really took out of this video is changing the depth/range of targets! It makes perfect sense! Keep up the great work with the videos guys!
Thanks so much for commenting Zack! To be honest, there isn't a ton of difference in dry practice with a rifle or a pistol in terms of setups, layout, etc. The mechanics are different with a rifle than a pistol, but the methodology is very very similar. If you're using par times, they will be different with a rifle and I'd recommend using simulated further distances than a pistol in most cases (smaller targets or more distance if you have it available). If you have other questions feel free to ask!
I have been shooting for about 6 years and i am not to your level, but i am no slouch. I dry fire and train, but no one has provided such an intent driven level dry fire like this to before. I noticed a difference and fixed issues i have had since i started shooting. I tried your system and fixed at least 2 issues within just one session. Thank you.
This video is such a big help many people have said to me do dry fire training but they never explained what I am supposed to be doing or looking for while dry fire trainin. Thank you very much for explaining this in such detail.
Can you make a video about round patterns on targets? For example, point of aim is not the same as point of impact. instead, rounds are going to the left instead of the center
3 things that are happening assuming you're right handed (left handed would be right of center) 1 - your firing hand is tensing as soon as you're breaking the shot. Try putting your brain on your hand and don't let it move. Also, move the trigger at one continuous speed whether quicker or slower. I also give people the common correction to tighten their support hand and rotate the support hand elbow upward to give you more room for error. 2 - you're pushing the gun to the left with your trigger finger path. Correction would be to add more finger into the trigger (I do not subscribe to one part of the finger always having to contact the trigger face - it's different for everyone and every gun). 3 - if your support hand isn't crushing the gun literally as hard as you can, you could be tensing the support hand fingers and pulling the gun right. This one isn't as common though unless a draw/presentation are involved. Hope this helps!
where is a decent company / website to buy a speed setup like the one you have on? I am looking getting into competition, steel targets mainly and defintely want to invest in a belt setup for this for training frequently. Thanks your videos are very helpful!
There are people that find that to be very helpful, however I personally don't use it. I think the value of using your own gun is highly important! Also, the airsoft recoil is not realistic at all. I do think there is value to understanding "shot calling" and this helps verify that to some degree, but once you understand how to make that connection it's not as necessary imo. Hope that helps!
You can do a lot with an airsoft replica , depending on what your real gun is. Shadow2, Glock , and a few more are usable for some of the dryfire drills or to train movement
This is indeed grim reality of today's bullet market. Many a well trained gun owner has had to resort to, almost exclusively, if not entirely, dry fire training.
Bright side to that is a LOT of your skill development can be gained this way! Then you can focus your live sessions on verifying that your methods are working when you have actual recoil. It drastically reduces the performance drop in your "cold" runs
Idk what you're talking about, shooters with ammo SPONSORS dryfire far more than they live fire and their ammo is free. Dryfire is indispensable regardless of ammo availablity.
Dry fire training has always been a thing even before ammo shortages all the best comp shooters dry fire. Idk why people frown upon it like it's some dirty red headed step child. It's a reality of getting good at shooting
17:24 you actually do a reload with the finger inside the trigger guard . Something I wouldn’t recommend to 99% of the shooters if you want to finish a match
I don’t think the idea is that it’s “hard.” People put a lot of effort into this because the whole intent of competitive shooting is to be as fast as possible while being accurate, especially to beat the other competitors.
My draw technique also works well on retention style holsters, I've worked with people on the same thing and they've had good success with it. It's not actually a scoop either 😁

What a fantastic, instructional video. I've only been shooting about 12 months and this is a huge bump for me by following these drills. Thanks.
Thanks so much Mark!! Feel free to reach out with questions anytime :)
Great teaching Rob, as always.
Thank you brother!
Very good and clear instructions. Plus the small details you explain are gold nuggets of information.

Good stuff guys. I’ll be implementing this structure to my DF practice. 👊🏼🇺🇸
A new site to me and I just Subscribed. Truly Excellent secondary to your Attention to Detail!
Appreciate that and appreciate you sharing your time by watching this!

My pleasure! I'm actually creating follow along videos on my YT as well and will share them when we finish editing :)
@robepifania I am looking forward to it!
@@joelluedtke8680 hell yeah!
Those reloads are on point
Haha thank you! Lot of work went into them
Your reload is dizzyingly fast! 💪
haha thank you! Lots of time and effort but worth it all!
Excellent information.
Great content! Wonderful presentation. Did you scrape the reference to the book of drills from the transcript by chance?
Wow great video!!
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
Im a new bee in this and appreciate your knowledge, new Subscriber
great video, very helpful!

Great video I use the mantis X10 to dry fire
Great info, thanks for this
Thanks for sharing a comment and the feedback!
Thank you for this information

Can you make a video about round patterns on targets? For example, point of aim is not the same as point of impact. instead, rounds are going to the left instead of the center
Most likely trigger control and grip. Do dry fire w the trigger, focusing on not having any jerking movements through the entire pull.
3 things that are happening assuming you're right handed (left handed would be right of center)
1 - your firing hand is tensing as soon as you're breaking the shot. Try putting your brain on your hand and don't let it move. Also, move the trigger at one continuous speed whether quicker or slower.
I also give people the common correction to tighten their support hand and rotate the support hand elbow upward to give you more room for error.

3 - if your support hand isn't crushing the gun literally as hard as you can, you could be tensing the support hand fingers and pulling the gun right. This one isn't as common though unless a draw/presentation are involved.
Hope this helps!
Lol. Man. No video required. Not your sights. It’s your fundamentals. Trigger control and grip control, and lastly sight alignment.
This is great!
Thank you for the comment and for taking the time to watch!
Your warm-up routine is longer than my whole weekly dry fire plan 😂
😂😂😂😂 you wouldn't be the first to say that lolol
@@robepifaniaanyways your video motivated me to workout more
@@freyekHappy to help motivate you and others to get some more work in! :) If you need anything you're always welcome to reach out!
@@robepifania thank you
Great video. Liked and subbed. Would suggest losing the background music though as it is distracting from the great information being provided.
Thanks for that! Newer videos have reflected that :)
Great video Rob
Thanks Andrew!
Dude, You are fast (16:51) Thanks for the great tips
Way to go Rob!111
Thanks!
Good stuff gentlemen
Thank you!
where is a decent company / website to buy a speed setup like the one you have on? I am looking getting into competition, steel targets mainly and defintely want to invest in a belt setup for this for training frequently. Thanks your videos are very helpful!
Please have a class on tactical reloads.
Tactical as in swapping mags? Or slide lock reloads? I just posted one on my YT and IG about slide lock reloads about a week ago :)
4:15 Why is his thumb resting there? That doesn't seem like good practice.
Firing hand thumb is resting on the thumb safety. This is the way you would do it with a single action only firearm
@@robepifania Oh okay. I get it now after some research! Thanks.
@@ehbird858 Happy to help where I can!
People that don’t shoot keep panic buying ammo
Love this
Bom dia, Aonde está o link do livro?
Have any videos on movement?
I definitely can make one in the future if people are interested!
Nice pistol. Competition grade.
Whoah look at you! All official and s#%t. I’m still gonna catch you on those reloads eventually.
hahaha you're getting closer!
Can I train with Airsoft?
There are people that find that to be very helpful, however I personally don't use it. I think the value of using your own gun is highly important! Also, the airsoft recoil is not realistic at all. I do think there is value to understanding "shot calling" and this helps verify that to some degree, but once you understand how to make that connection it's not as necessary imo. Hope that helps!
@@robepifaniayeah and right now just training my weapons manipulation.

Dry firing is not my favorite thing to do but it’s a necessary evil to stay well connected to the skill.

he didn't
aaah, no he didn't.
Yeah definitely didn't lol

Wtf is so hard about scooping any fullsize from these little plastic cups, it's barely a holster.
