For good reason, the hard sight focus is the most common handgun aiming technique used for accurate shooting, but there are other options that may be a better choice in certain situations or distance to the target. There is also one for aging eyes that works best with a red dot and iron sights.

People who wear progressive (not transition. I'm a dummy) lenses, bifocal and/or trifocal lenses often struggle with finding and maintaining the correct location on the lens to look through while shooting a handgun. This is magnified if the shooter is firing in a poor or awkward shooting position where recoil is moving more than just the handgun itself. A soft sight focus technique that is very similar in function to how we use red dots, can help mitigate this problem for those shooters with aging eyes.

Daniel Shaw goes over rifle magazine and pouches carrying options answering questions like, what's the best location for magazine pouches, what direction should the mags face and how should you retrieve the mags to be fast and efficient when reloading? Check it out and let us know what you think. Do you use the beer can or the sandwich? One might be better than the other... Which one suits you?

There may not be one length of pull setting for all applications that solves all stock related problems, so it is perfectly fine to be fluid with your stock length. Just because you like your stock short while standing or in some applications, doesn't mean that is where it should be for all positions and firing techniques. Increasing your length of pull can add more leverage and strength to your shooting position and all you to shoot faster with more consistent precision with less effort.

Daniel Shaw explains what he trains and teaches for the mindset of a post-engagement scan (search and assess) and where priorities should be immediately following a use of force incident. You scan left, you look right, but what did you look at and what did you see? Did you receive and process information or did you train to look at nothing? The idea here is to train mindset rather than a head movement that itself doesn't require any practice. You are already good at looking around, let's work on thinking.
