Setup

Set up a simple course with 2–3 positions and targets — no trigger work in this drill.

Stage Walkthrough is an excellent introduction for shooters new to dynamic/practical shooting. In this drill you never press the trigger at all — it's purely about movement, vision and stopping on each target. This is a planning drill, not a speed drill: you learn where you naturally come to a stop, which path is shortest, and in what order to pick up targets.

Step by step

1

Walk the entire mini-course, focusing only on movement.

2

Watch your eyes — look at the next target before you arrive.

3

Stop naturally on each target, without pressing the trigger.

4

Notice which path is shortest and most natural.

5

Repeat with a different target order.

Coaching cues
