Navy SEAL Shooting: Learn how to shoot from their leading instructor

I took a 3-day shooting course back in May of this year (never shot a gun before). Since then, I was going to the range once a week and doing my dry-fire practice every night. But my shooting wasn't really improving. I could get all (or nearly all) of my shots with a handgun on a 8.5"x11" target out to 25 yards, but I would occasionally miss, and the shots were all over the target. I was getting frustrated, and I wasn't sure what was going on, so I started researching and first stumbled upon Sajnog's video on front-sight focus.That was a revelation, to put it mildly. I realized that I was indeed looking at the front sight while I was shooting, but I wasn't f-o-c-u-s-i-n-g on the sight. I was so impressed with how well he related that lesson that I decided to buy his book to see what other tips and tricks he had. The information in his book finally solved the riddle of what I was doing wrong and unlocked what I needed to work on - I wasn't using a firm enough grip, and I wasn't really FOCUSING on the front sight, nor was I following up correctly (Sajnog hammers these concepts in his book). I followed his advice and avoided the range for two weeks to work on my dry fire. I also followed his advice and slowed down, eliminating fast draws from my routine in order to focus on concentration and technique. I went back to the range after two weeks, and I was keyholing shots, even out to 25 yards (not all of them, and not always exactly where I aimed for... I still have a lot of work to do). Now I dry fire practice with a purpose. I am getting compliments at the range now, and people are shocked that I've only been shooting for a few months. I am also working on my grip strength (also following Sajnog's advice), as I now understand how important a firm grip is to controlling the weapon and improving trigger control.So bottom line, this guy's materials were the information that I needed to get past my shooting plateau. Bear in mind that I only shoot handguns, so I have no idea about the rifle sections (I skipped those), but I can't imagine that they aren't also excellent. Also, this book frankly has a lot of superfluous info if you are not an absolute beginner. Pages and pages on safety, gear, etc. I didn't need those, but I'll take them for the other EXCELLENT lessons that I did absolutely need. That said, I only needed about 50 pages of this book, but heck... if I ever start rifle shooting, I may be glad I have the rest of it.

Ten years ago, I sat down and read Jim Owens' books in an effort to improve my marksmanship with my rifles and pistols and got excellent results. The benefits of systematic training go without saying. In the southern United States most of us good-ol'-boys and girls grow up with guns in our hands, yet we never take the time or expend the effort to really learn to shoot. In spite of this lack of discipline, some of us manage to shoot reasonably well, but most end up being sloppy and inaccurate. Reading a book on the subject is looked down upon as nerdy and pretentious. But I submit that no amount of trigger time will ever compensate for disciplined and systematic training. I can remember reading Rogue Warrior, Dick Marcinko's (founder of Seal Team Six) biography as a teenager and hearing him wax poetical regarding the virtues of dry firing firearms as an essential element of training. I took it to heart and have benefited markedly as a result. Nevertheless, every time I say how important it is and how much I value it, people sneer at me like I am some kind of sissy before turning and shooting crappy groups or bump-firing aimlessly at discarded soda bottles 4 yards downrange. (Who's sneering now, you rednecks?) So you can imagine that when Sajnog jumped right in stressing the importance of dry-fire, it brought a smile to my face.As I said, I got my start with Jim Owens' books ten years ago. And Jim's series is great, especially for those who shoot service rifles competitively. Recently, however, I decided to see what the latest literature regarding marksmanship had to offer. Sajnog's Navy SEAL Shooting, with all of its positive reviews, was a natural choice. I ordered it. In my first read-through, I was delighted to find a wealth of fresh insight and perspectives regarding marksmanship. I was also shocked to find that many of the things that I have taken and practiced for years as gospel are just plain wrong. But Chris Sajnog's matter-of-fact writing style and intuitive and scientifically-backed methods won me over quickly. While I was quickly convinced of the merit of Sajnog's methods and theories, taking them from theory to practice was challenging. However, the effort is well worth it. My marksmanship, which had essentially plateaued, is once again improving.This book covers everything from the mental and physical aspects of marksmanship to the techniques of firearms manipulation in combat. It is a truly impressive body of work that will doubtless be THE foremost book on the subject of marksmanship for civilians, law enforcement, and military for decades to come. Sajnog's writing is clear and descriptive and the book is packed with extremely useful illustrations and photos.Though certainly not a shortcoming of the book, the shooting stances and many of the techniques for long guns are geared towards the M4/AR-15 platform. As such, there are certain elements that just do not transfer over to those of us who shoot more conventional rifles (in my case, lever guns.) Regardless, I was not disappointed with this book in any way.I cannot overemphasize the fact that Navy SEAL Shooting is packed with information. You won't be able to ingest it all in one read-through or even two. Navy SEALs are expert marksmen and completely badass for two primary reasons: A.) They are HIGHLY disciplined and make training a chief priority and, B.) They are type-A nerds underneath all the badass-ity and are highly analytical and are sticklers for theory. Bearing this in mind, it is important to understand that Navy SEAL Shooting is not going to make you a better shooter if you are not willing to expend the mental focus and thought to process all of the information and come up with a systematic approach to putting it into practice. If you want to shoot like a Navy SEAL, you have to put in the time, effort, and systematic focus of a Navy SEAL. In short, it takes work (Millennials be warned.) Everything you need to become and be an excellent shooter is between the covers of this book. However, it is up to you to put it all into practice.Having said all that, go ahead and order a set of A-Zoom Snap Caps in the caliber of your choice, a Dynaflex Powerball, and a good grip strengthener ( I highly recommend the MummyFit Grip Strengthener.) Sajnog is not wasting his breath when it comes to training recommendations.

Massive and more than you will expect. I also have his ebook. It's helped me tons and there is a lot of information given in a very comprehensible way! Definitely a must for shooters and shooting enthusiasts! Good shooting!

Like the other book wrote by the same author, this one is very helpful to increase shooting skills. I recomend it.

All OK!

Reanalysed just a propaganda leaflet for his other courses and product

Great quality product, exactly as described
