Times to draw from holster.
My average time to draw and get two rounds down range is 1.20 seconds.
Is this considered good, and how can I make it better? I have been shooting most of my life, and am new to these forums. I am turning 18 in 3 days now... 2 not including the rest of tonight. But shooting for a long time doesn't mean anything. I do not have bad habits, and if I do they still haven't been pointed out. But I am human, and theres no such thing as a perfect shooter. Theres always room for error. Thanks for any tips and tricks to help me on this. |

Are you hitting with those two rounds? If so, what target are you shooting at and at what range?

Hitting with about a 3 in grouping from 15 yds.
I'm shooting at the silhouette targets. Also, what is a strong hand firing position? |

What type of holster are you using? I can clear leather in Open Carry and hit a target at 7 yards in the A Zone (IPSC Target) one time at 1.0 or sub zero times from a random beep with a shot timer. I'm 63 years old and shoot B Class Limited IPSC (USPSA) with a full power G21 or G35.

It's a Gun-Mate Tactical holster.
Needless to say... You beat me. Those are some amazing times. |

If your depending on a fast draw to save you life. Buy some pre-paid funeral services. Situational awareness. Thats the life saver.
Just my opinion Glenn Dee. |

Two shots into 3" @ 15 yards in 1.2 seconds from the buzzer is outstanding.
Heck, Dave Sevigny could only do it in 1.62 seconds at seven yards and he's a World Champion! Put up a YouTube video of your accomplishment and you could be raking in some sweet sponsorship dollars! |

That's excellent.
From low ready I can shoot 5 rounds in 1.12 secs at a target 21ft away in about a 5" group. (I have video!) I was shooting a steel target.

What's absolutely uncanny about watching Sevigny run that FAST drill is that both times, he has a 1.36 draw and a .26 split on his second shot. Both times. Identical, down to the hundredth of a second... The dude's not human; he's a frickin' replicant or something...
