Episode 8: Are Marksmanship Skills Overrated?

Great topic to talk about! Combat accuracy vs. fully sighted marksmanship on a range are completely different. Like training for sprints and then trying to run a marathon. Both have their application, but for defensive pistol training, you can’t overlook combat/point shooting training. Thanks for the topic and the podcast.
Thanks for listening, Matthew! Hope you enjoy forthcoming episodes, and a review on iTunes would be GREATLY appreciated!!
