Champion Shooting: Guaranteed Results in 15 Minutes A Day Description
This is Volume 2 in the Champion Shooting book series. The first volume Champion Shooting, a Proven Process For Success at Any Level, sets you on the path to improvement with the greatest impact for the effort you put in. It provides the foundation for a practice regiment and discusses all facets of training. One of the key aspects of practice discussed in the first volume is the notion of dry-fire. So we took this concept and elaborated on it with a focus on how to fit this method of practice into your overall regimen.
Whether it’s USPSA, IPSC, IDPA or Steel Challenge practical shooters always seem to be talking about dry-fire. It seems to be generally accepted that dry-fire is an important means of improving your shooting technique. There are many schools of thought pertaining to the use of dry-fire techniques as a means of improvement. Just about everyone thinks it is important, but most people do not seem to implement it into their regular training regimen. Many people use dry-fire extensively for a short time and then stop doing it. We are not quite sure why people stop training through dry-fire although there are many thoughts around this – it can be boring, mundane, not realistic, etc.
This book will help you gain an understanding of the following myths concerning its use as a training technique:
* You have heard that it’s boring? This book will disprove that.
* You will not learn anything by using it as a practice method, and you won’t get any faster even if you do? The drills within this book will disprove that.
* You do not know what to practice? This is a book filled with practice concepts.

Until I got my hands on this book I thought I had been dryfire practicing like the top GMs. I was wrong. Stoeger's approach is efficient, comprehensive, and unlike the plans in other training manuals I've used. It is also customizable in that it allows you to mix and match exercises to fit your needs in a training plan.
What I really liked is that this isn't just a list of USPSA classifiers with tables so you can chart your performance over time. In fact, Stoeger gives a very strong rationale for why tracking your times on the drills isn't helpful. While tracking performance may not be the goal, Stoeger does provide performance benchmarks, and more importantly, a method for ensuring that your skills translate to live fire.
He says very plainly - and after practicing the drills I can see that it's true - that the approach laid out in the book is what took him from a very good shooter to the best Production competitor in the country. If you want to take your practice sessions to the next level, this is the book to buy.

I bought another dry fire book from a well-known author/shooter, that I had heard great reviews about, and I wish I would have just waited for this one. With the other book, I sort of felt like I could have come up with most, or all of the drills without buying the book. Then, it basically said "Do all these drills for 3 hours every day, and you will be a GM once you can do x drill in y seconds." That sort of model might work for a lot of people, but for me, it is hard to commit to a training program, when you know going in, you will only be doing 1/3 of the prescribed training.
This book gives you organized 15 minute sessions to go by. You don't feel like you have to dry fire for hours on end to get anything out of the program. If you have more time, just do more of the sessions. It doesn't claim to take you to any certain level in any certain time frame, but I feel like it has the potential to certainly make someone who is dedicated, a GM. And it will definitely help someone who isn't as dedicated, like me, to slowly improve my game. It also has a lot of unique drills that I haven't seen before, and they are designed to make you a well rounded shooter, in all aspects; not just those that make you better at classifier stages. A lot of them incorporate movement, which is something largely lacking in other dryfire routines, and also very important to being a good competitor in actual matches.
I really don't feel the need to search out any other dry fire books after finding this one.
