5-Minute Dry Fire Routine
Don't have a lot of time to practice? Here's a short dry fire routine you can use to improve your skills and make sure you don't lose competency while you're conserving ammo.
This routine takes about 5 minutes (don't rush it), and will help you with the fundamentals. Dry fire is about "perfect practice", so it's not necessary to use a timer (focus on getting it right). You can draw from a holster or start from a low ready position.
To shoot the routine:
Draw and "fire" one shot on 1-6 in any order. Repeat 2-3 times.
Draw and fire one shot on 1-3, reload, then fire one shot on 4-6. Repeat 2-3 times.
Draw and fire one shot on 1-6 strong hand only. Repeat 2-3 times.
Draw and fire one shot on 1-6 strong hand only. Repeat 2-3 times.
Before you start any dry fire session, make sure to triple check your gun to make sure it's unloaded and follow all the dry fire safety protocols!
