Backcountry Shooting Skills: Building & Practicing the Fundamentals
Manage episode 328335504 series 2681059
This episode takes a deep dive into how to learn and practice shooting skills that will make you a backcountry deal-closer at the moment of truth.
With the objective defined as the ability to place a bullet precisely into the vitals under challenging conditions, we address:
- Reading the lay of the land as you set up to shoot
- Building a stable shooting position
- Mastering your breathing
- Achieving a correct sight picture
- Executing a clean trigger squeeze
- Controlling recoil
- Following through
- Spotting impacts
- Following up
Transitioning from critical shooting skills, we detail practice methods for the range and for the field:
- Confirming zero
- Validating ballistics
- Testing capability from field positions
- Going afield and practicing
- Dry-firing
- Reading the situation (wind, angle, animal position)
- Rocks, bushes, and other targets of opportunity
- Letting missed shots haunt you—for the future good
Wrap & final thought: Don't be the weak link in the chain
ENJOY!
