This is an excellent video. Well articulated, most 1) can’t split the gun like that and 2) can’t articulate HOW it’s done. This shows someone who’s thought through every aspect of the topic and has done a LOT of exploration work. This doesn’t come naturally, it takes a lot of hard work and effort and ammo, mostly. Good stuff man. Maybe one of these days I’ll beat you in a bill drill.

[@SpecTrain]

Preciate it brother, expecting it any day now!

[@SpecTrain]

@UCQ__BHx0k4iw3pvzFrzHg6A Very cool man!

[@GunnyUniform]

I’m already seeing my split times dropping doing these drills in dry/live fire. I’ve been doing each drill for 5 minutes every day. Can’t recommend these drills enough.

[@PapaTango1M]

Agreed. Application has boosted my trigger game. 100%

[@rurouniad]

What are they?

[@michaelschuerhoff]

The rehab monster is the secret to match performance. All the caffeine goodness with none of the fizzy bubbly guts.

[@alexanderb5644]

The most complete lesson on splits I've ever seen. Been subbed for years too, wouldn't have seen this without your precision rifle email

[@lastcat]

Very good. Probably the best video I've seen so far about grip/trigger/recoil/splits. No stories about Scott at the range, old wives tales, some RO did this, no bs. You've got skills as a Teacher. Thank you, excellent. !!!

[@pcs3576]

Holy CRAP!!!! Amazing video and drills to make you better. Thank you!!! Totally rad vid.

[@SpecTrain]

Preciate it!

[@wiscojoe_ggg3449]

They heard you shooting. Flying over looking for illegal machine guns.😂 great video man. This is very helpful. I’m looking forward to working these drills and checking back to share my results. Thank you!

[@SpecTrain]

With the fudds that run this range you might be right hahaha.

[@billalumni7760]

You are a phenomenal instructor.

[@JG_TACTICAL]

This is my favorite video regarding split training. Amazing job!

[@bobl2833]

Splits and keeping grip after shot 3 or more is a challenge for me. Thanks. I’m taking notes

[@blazeoffuegon]

Great video! When I first started trying to go faster (1984 ish) I made a recording to listen to on my way to matches. Cassat tape. I recorded banging a kitchen pot at the slower cadence and got progressively faster about every 3 or 4 reps. The final sets were at this guy's metronome 400bpm or a little faster. When I got to the match my brain would shoot for that cadence. I used to be fast!!! I haven't though about that tape in 40 years!

[@LRRPFco52]

Musicians who train to play fast scalar runs or even fast single note rhythms have an advantage here, due to better neuroplasticity and trained twitchy muscle fibers. Especially pianists, bassists, and guitarists.

[@LRRPFco52]

I commented before he mentioned the drummer.

[@garrettlundy3959]

This man trigger finger so fast he can put his wife in a wheelchair 😂

[@parunbelhomme]

I don't think I've ever learned so much about shooting fast in under 30 min, like I have in just watching this video. Thanks a bunch for this Billy!

[@raifcluster]

A long time ago I read the book The Mental Game of Golf to improve my scores on the course. It worked! All about timing! This video is reminescent of those same instructions. VERY helpful, and spot on.

[@LamboFit]

This video helped me a ton. Thank you for sharing

[@grzegorzmgorecki]

Very informative video! I’m surprised by the fact, that you have only 7k followers! Really nice hints to improve speed!

[@genin69]

Ive been using a metronome to help with timing and its great

[@rytacarms]

Solid content,kinda mad I didn’t get recommended this channel sooner

[@EthanBares]

This is a fantastic video. Billy does an excellent job explaining things.

[@SpecTrain]

Thanks!

[@nathanjames329]

This is really well done. I'm going to try few of these drills.

[@Johnsormani]

Well explained. But fast doubles not help you much if it takes too much time to get the first shot on target. The most gains in a competition can be made by getting into and out of shooting positions efficiently and acquiring your target early enough

[@andywalker7144]

Excellent stuff. Going to be using the metronome idea for sure.

[@SpecTrain]

Thanks!

[@georgekirby3361]

Excellent

[@bach1958]

Very informative presentation. Well done.

[@Tacticool_Mutton_Chops]

I love the use of a metronome for teaching faster splits. I'm a guitar player mostly where I've worked with metronomes, but I also have taken lessons on drum kit too. Ever since I started training for sub .15s splits, I've found it's easiest to count bill drills the way I was taught to count 16th notes on drums. So for a bill reload bill I'll be saying in my head: "one ee and uh two ee - reload - one ee and uh two ee" - but even counting with my internalized metronome, I've never thought to actually break out the metronome app and calculate what BPM would be my split goals.

[@liketadied]

This is a great video

[@johnmerritt1094]

Excellent excellent presentation!!! I am good at combat shooting but want to learn the speed and precision of competitive shooting! It’s two completely different worlds imho

[@priority19]

Great video!

[@eddiepereira9628]

Absolutely one of the best if not the best video on trigger manipulation I ever seen. Much appreciated.

[@unclesam7660]

This is a badass video thanks 🙏

[@carry_boats]

THIS VIDEO IS GREAT!!!!!!!!

[@tjc501]

I could get .15 splits pretty consistently but i slap the shit out of the trigger amongst other things going that fast. Per mantis x.

[@mjohnstonflying]

Great video thank you

[@johnnygimms4523]

Im really glad I found your channel it’s outstanding. Thanks!

[@SpecTrain]

Welcome!

[@ms_shooting]

This was a great teaching video. Thank you!

[@Adam_B_Shooting]

Can I just take a second to say how jealous I am that you have that KC slide. I wish Zev still offered a 34 size slide for the OZ9 standard.

[@SpecTrain]

yeah it's a bummer man. I only managed to get two of them haha. You can still find the slides on ebay usually.

[@Adam_B_Shooting]

@@SpecTrain or I could wait for the Billy signature series Zev slide haha.

[@JimneyCriquet]

I’m late but I think they are offering a new oz9v2 with a long slide now

[@Adam_B_Shooting]

@@JimneyCriquet that’s only for the V1 & V2 OZ9c version. I want the OZ9 Standard one so I can use a fullsize guide rod and spring and not a compact.

[@llobualiste6120]

Thank you, very much for video

[@MikeSeeklander]

Great video dude! Well done!

[@SpecTrain]

Thanks mike! Pretty sure I mentioned you in this video somewhere haha. Picked up several things from you over the years. Will try and say hey at nats!🤙

[@theccwdad]

You are the guy ken hackathorn was talking about in his de cocker video 😂

[@heeebeeegeeebeee]

Good stuff. I hope this channel grows. The tutorials are excellent.

[@mcgowan7100]

This is a fantastic video. The clear way you break this down and explain it sets it head and shoulders above other KZbin content. Keep it up. This is fire. P. S. I’ve contacted my 3rd grade music teacher to see if she still has that metronome we used

[@SpecTrain]

Thanks Mike!

[@mymainelogcabin]

The last part is what I needed to hear👍👍

[@WTS-03]

Love this info

[@SpecTrain]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ABiblicalView]

Fantastic

[@UncleFjester]

FYI Time stamps would work for us on the timeline if you start with 0:00 Intro

[@Bens_Channel47]

thanks. Excellent Video!

[@juanclaudio7935]

Thank you for sharing!

[@copelandingadventures]

Well done!

[@johnnyfox8142]

So after watching this for the 3rd time I found the 400 bmp metronome on KZbin and while listening to the beats Im practicing dryfiring the trigger while watching the dot. It's tough to keep up.😮

[@jacksonfrench3226]

Does anyone have a good way to match splits to BPM? An equation to show what .17 is in bpm perhaps

[@musicman1eanda]

I'm a B class CO shooter and have been working on doubles for over a year. I still can't hold the A zone within 10yds. I'm honestly trying to grip as tightly as I can with only my support hand, yet I still get high & left Cs, Ds, and mikes for the second round of many pairs.

[@SpecTrain]

Without seeing what exactly is going on and working through some stuff with you it's tough to diagnose just from that man. With the amount of work is sounds like you are putting in, if you aren't making significant progress I'd look at jumping in a class with a squared away instructor for some in-person diagnostics.

[@TNSK]

Any lateral movement is grip. And in your case probably pressure lacking from the arms clamping in not lack of hands squeezing . I would watch Mike Seeklander describing grip pressure.

[@jbarres80]

My splits are between .15-.18 but feel slow to me

[@vszmey]

What I tap with my hand, I can easily keep 500 cadence. But when I try to do the same with the gun and jerking the trigger with my finger, I can't even keep 400 cadence. Do you have a solution for that? Thanks! Great video BTW!!!

[@SpecTrain]

I do, but they are all in the video haha. Keep up the work on it!

[@is-nv1lu]

When working these are you holding to an accuracy standard initially? or plugging in accuracy(A zone) afterwards?

[@SpecTrain]

Depending on which step you are working on accuracy may or may not be a big component at first. But let me put it this way... If you are currently maxing out at a .20 split, and you want to get to .15 split alphas at 7, the fastest way to get there is to simply figure out how to split the gun at .15, and then from there figure out the control piece at that speed.

[@is-nv1lu]

Thank you@@SpecTrain

[@is-nv1lu]

@@SpecTrain I hit .16’s on a bill drill last week, and just hit .13’s raw speed today. It works when I do my part. Thanks!

[@SpecTrain]

@@is-nv1lu Love it!

[@Tunnellord]

Could you apply this to duty triggers?

[@SpecTrain]

Absolutely. Recently posted 4 shots from the draw in under 1 second with a stock Glock. Same principles apply.

[@JonCMarino]

are you a GM?

[@SpecTrain]

Yep.

[@JonCMarino]

Awesome. Congrats sooooooo not easy to do.

[@jackruby4680]

I notice he's aiming low. That would definitely make wrist/muzzle control easier that shooting at a 5 or 6 ft high level target.

[@SpecTrain]

The weight of the gun is the same, the amount of energy transferred into the hands by recoil is the same, the amount of input needed to return the gun to zero is the same. It literally makes no difference. I just won the bill drill competition at USPSA nationals with a 1.23, all alpha, normal height target. Excuses aren't helpful, only work is.
