Today I wanted to talk a little about moving and shooting. We cover this briefly in our Level 1 Tactical Camps and we go into even more detail in our Level 2 Camp.
I believe this is so important because if you get into a fire fight on the street, most likely you will be reacting to someone drawing on you.
In that split second when you realize what is happening, what will be your initial reaction?
- Will you just stand there?
- Will you start backing away?
- Will you run for cover?
You need to realize, the FIRST thing you should do is disrupt the shooter. The best way to do this is by moving laterally. So move to your right or left, not forward or backwards because that makes you an easy target.
