How To: Shoot IPSC Swingers

[@umami0247]

The most important part of this is making sure you know your zeroed if you know where your rounds are going it makes hitting moving targets easier. Of course practice is important as well. And don't follow the target find a center point where the target is at its highest point. If not the first shooter I find it helpful to watch how the target moves and for how long some of these give you a brief time to hit them and it's best to know when that happens.

This is very helpful! Thank you for taking the time to make this! What software did you use to make swinger animations?

[@ipsc-guru]

Hi L C, thanks for the comment and question. I just used latest version of MS PowerPoint to animate the swingers. No other fancy programs. DVC

@ipsc-guru more importantly. Shooting iron sights is focusing on the FS. I was going to mention before, but I was just lazy. It is so easy to focus on the swinger and forget FS focus. You should mention that in your videos. It's really a discipline on the part of the shooter to do so.

The problem is access to practice swingers. If you shoot swingers three times a week, 100 rds each time, swingers are no problem. Most don't have that access.

Hi Warren, I understand your point, which is indeed applicable to a lot of shooters, incl. myself. I do 80% of my training on swingers on my dry fire swinger set of DAA. 15% on my homemade swinger for my action air training and the remaining 5% during live fire training on the range.
