#355 - The "Fudd" Training Secret Every Modern Shooter Needs

In this episode, Brent Wheat and Roy Huntington embrace their inner "Fudds" to discuss why shooting like it's 1955 is the secret to mastering modern firearms. While high-speed, low-drag tactical training is all the rage, we explain why pure bullseye precision shooting is the ultimate foundation for any concealed carry or combat shooter. Discover real-world examples from law enforcement where taking a slow, deliberate shot neutralized the threat, and learn why dumping a magazine at top speed will only ensure you miss faster. We also share two completely free marksmanship drills you can practice on your next range trip using nothing more than a blank piece of paper and a .22 pistol. Tune in to learn why slow is smooth, smooth is fast, and how going back to basics can dramatically shrink your group sizes under pressure. Key Takeaways • Speed is useless without precision; drawing fast only to miss fast will get you or innocent bystanders killed. • Practicing slow, deliberate bullseye fire is a fundamental building block for all shooters, even top-tier tactical operators. • Real-world combat instances prove that remaining calm and applying basic marksmanship fundamentals often end threats instantly. • The mantra 'slow is smooth, smooth is fast' applies directly to building foundational firearm manipulation and accuracy skills. • Try the blank paper and small circle drills with a .22 pistol to diagnose trigger control and sight alignment issues.   Have a topic idea or a guest you'd like to see in a future episode?
