Shooter Ready Challenge, August 2021

August 2021 Shooter Ready Challenge

We've been publishing dry fire training and challenge videos since October 2019 to help the average gun carrier take their skills to the next level. This series of videos is called “Shooter Ready Challenge,” and it's completely free to watch and take advantage of.

And, you get to learn new skills from the host of the Concealed Carry Podcast, Riley Bowman.

We published the August video this week.

This time, the SRC video is all about accelerating your trigger press. In other words, pressing the trigger fast while minimizing hand movements.

Competitive shooters and those focused more on self-defense use of the handgun need to develop a repeatable, consistent draw stroke. We also suggest this Draw Like A Pro online course.

Check out Riley's pointers on how you can obtain a more consistent one-hand draw stroke on our Shooter Ready Challenge Page. What's cool about that page is that all of the other past challenge videos dating from October 2019 until last month are also available for free.

As a side benefit to participating in upping your proficiency as a shooter, everyone who participates is entered to win a special prize from us. There's no telling what this month's prize is, but we've given away some really cool things, ranging from hearing protection to ammo.

This month's Winner of the drawing is Steve G. He won a LaserDot Trainer from ReadyUpGear. The LaserDot Cartridge is a fantastic tool to add to your dryfire training regime.

And if you weren't sure, dry fire training is one of the best ways you can increase your odds of winning a gunfight, is totally safe as long as you do it with an empty gun, and is something that all of the pro-shooters recommend you do.
