How To Add Realism to Your Range Training

Updated: Jun 9, 2021


Adding Realism to your range training is something you should do as much as possible. The why is very simple, if you are ever in a deadly force situation, your threat will not be made of cardboard.


In every War HOGG Tactical course, I have the students bring out old t-shirts. As a finishing point to the training, we place t-shirts over their targets. I let the students shoot the drill with no instruction on where to aim.


About half way through the drill, I stop them, let the students look at their target. What I typically see is shots down low be cause they are shooting "center mass". I then give them some critical information on where to aim and watch their shots move to a better shot placement location.


In the video above, I give a full demonstration of how adding this little bit of realism to your firearms training could help save your life in a deadly force encounter.


Let me know what you are doing to add realism to your firearms training?


Train hard and stay safe!
