Been giving some thought to my range time. I've finally advanced to what I consider "decent shooter" territory (with a focus on SD shooting not competition type).
Suddenly it occurs to me just how calm and collected I am on the range now and how that sure doesn't simulate any stressful situation.
So last night I take the XD-40, some snap caps and a couple of mags over to a friend's property and spend about an hour running around like a damned fool and then trying to do a few FTL and FTE drills as well as trying to load a few rounds into a mag after a good 50 yard sprint.
Yup, THAT sure simulates operating under stress.
Now I just have to find a range that will let me run for a while and then shoot to see what happens. (no, I'm not about to join the military thank you very much )
