Alright, we have updated “The Challenge” because people said it needed to be done from concealment and they were right.
What is “The Challenge” you ask… well, it is simply a video clip we put together to see if you can draw and “shoot” (dry fire) before you get cut. Okay… you aren’t really going to get cut; the screen is going to turn red when the attacker cuts a stick that represents you.
We deal with a lot of people who THINK they can get their gun out and use it in a fight. Truth of the matter is that things will happen MUCH faster than what you think it will. And, you won’t have as much time to react as you believe you will. Lateral movement is not the ideal direction of movement in a lot of situations because you would easily get cut and possibly even be taken out of the fight should you choose to move this direction.
The purpose of the challenge is hopefully to get you to realize where your true skills are in regards to you reacting, drawing and shooting ONCE you have identified a potential threat.
Going straight for your gun is not the answer in a lot of situations. So, do you think that you can perceive the attackers movement and identify a threat, draw, and shoot in less than one second AND hit your target AND take them immediately out of the fight? Well, of course we cannot tell you that you will or will not hit your target and take them immediately out of the fight. But that’s what would need to happen in order for you to stand the best chance of survival.
We can only help you to realize whether or not you currently have the ability in a CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT to react, draw, and shoot before the attacker cuts you. After all, if you can’t do it “here”, then you won’t stand a chance at doing it in the real deal!!! Of course, there are far more variables in a real fight than we can present on a short video clip.
So, if you dare, take “The Challenge”.
