How To Dry Fire Like A Grandmaster Shooter With JJ Racaza

[@hawkgeoff]

Dude... JJ's info is pure gold. Ya'll just received about $600.00 of training for free.

[@LIONTAMER3D]

He's lernd 2 guns

[@flyer037]

I was LITERALLY about to say that this video is absolute GOLD! First comment, my thoughts exactly! Great video! Thank you!

[@cyberlycans4191]

So conceivably you did too right?

[@cyberlycans4191]

Unless every single thing he shared is something we've already known. Knowing something and doing it and practicing it are two different things, but everything he said it's something I already know

[@johnhek4191]

Not really you should probably already know this shit

[@davidrahbany]

JJ is as deliberate and precise with his language as he is with his draw. Really eloquent and easy to understand.

[@mannyg5776]

The comment on elbow angle in relation to the reload just made a huge difference for me in just a couple reps. Thanks!

[@bshadrick]

The .2 seconds to the gun is something I really need to try. At 69 I feel like my processing to the buzzer has slowed down. Old brain😁. God bless! Bill

[@Shadow__133]

Just make sure the opponent is 70+ if you get in a gunfight 😂 Jk, the most important is to practice so you can perform well under pressure.

[@matthewsmith-barrett7539]

Met JJ at the PanAm Champs in Frostproof over a week ago. Amazed at how cool he is for a celebrity in his own right. We approached him and said "You know why we are here", and he laughed and started posing for the pictures immediately. Promised to give us some more iron sight videos for us production shooters too.

[@Johnsormani]

What a shame that you can only press the like button once. JJ is a Great teacher. I’ve been shooting IPSC since 30+ years and I always look to learn something new or get confirmation that I am doing things right. This video is really all about efficient dry training and JJ is all about efficiency

[@jeffreylucas3421]

I pick up little tips from everyone what I got from you is the position of the elbow to slam in a fresh mag as wsell as your guy follows your eye focus on your future targets Next I like studying how your movement appears to flow smoothly with little jerking. Thanks JJ.

[@winstonsmiths2449]

Dry firing with a laser cartridge has been a HUGE help, huge! That and using LaseHit app with homemade targets. I was shocked when I went back to the range after not shooting for months and seeing how accurate I was. In fact my accuracy increased along with speed, time to sight picture, grip, presentation, trigger pull.

[@tetrakosarihondaturbo2810]

Robot arms! Truly amazing watching a pro handle a gun. The repetitions made you move like a cyborg!

[@iboopedyournose]

This is a great wealth of information. Thanks Hyve and JJ for releasing this :)

[@BruceWayne-ii1mx]

I love this. This is a great video for those who want to take JJ's course. This going to help not just new shooters but even seasonal shooters step their game up because we now know the philosophy and mindset behind JJ's train of thought. I always found a road block in dry firing training. Always asking how can i get better, what small movements do i need to improve on. What areas can i cut corners, or where should i not cut corners. Like not dropping the mag. Simple yet efficient. Keeping elbows in. The little details like this are going to make me and other better shooters. I love it. Thanks JJ. I can't wait to watch more videos of you.

[@JJRacaza111]

You’re very welcome sir!!! I will do a live KZbin dry fire session soon! Of me dry firing, so questions and comments and anything else can be left and we will have discussed it all!

[@JPHoka76]

Now seeing this I will watch the videos I make of my sessions and call out when I hit a reload so I can prompt myself to look at elbow position. Great tip and video!

[@Valorius]

The fellow who ended the Indianapolis mall shooting has credited extensive dry fire practice to his success

[@Osprey1994]

Almost all of my practice has been with dry fire and I can hit steel at 100 with everything from my P10F to my P365x...dry fire made it so that when I was at my recent pistol class I mostly focused on rifining my grip and managing recoil instead of trying to shore up my ability to take a clean shot because at a base level my ability to take accurate shots was already set. It felt really good to have other people who clearly have more money and ammunition to burn look at my target and say, "damn kid!" even when I was focused on the rounds I threw, why I threw them, and how I could prevent it in the future.

[@vk-br1dr]

[@shanecabbage2187]

@@vk-br1dr very sorry to hear that. Trying our hardest to keep our God given right to defend ourselves; our right to own, practice with and carry our firearms.

[@rodralig]

This is not new. Those with most successes in either competitive or tactical shooting dry practice/fire extensively.

[@rikertvonfulton16]

I did not know that but that is good info.

[@joshuafrazier3135]

Dude that was so helpful.. I have literally been doing the bad habit you mentioned and now I have to retrain my noggin to shoot right. I have seen myself break bad shots because of incorrect training

[@HumbleDishwasher]

His advice about dry firing with a time set for sight picture as opposed to trigger squeeze is some great info. I'm going to be using that

[@Renaldo135]

ECONOMY OF MOVEMENT VS WASTED MOVEMENT......that pretty much "sums" it up on effective and fast draws on target. GREAT VID AND THANK YOU SIR!

[@ryanngo1904]

Been watching Jj since I got into firearms and watching him on top shot. Really was the start of my expensive journey lol

[@kriswalter560]

This channel is now my go-to for tips and dry fire practice routines. Thank you for an excellent resource.

[@LiorIPSC]

Thanks for sharing this. Pure gold!

[@thomasdestry5188]

Mind Blown in a wonderful way about the meticulous manner that a master shooter creates.

[@stovepipe8966]

Excellent tips ! I make all the mistakes discussed - picking up mags and not prepping my trigger after the dry fire shot - now I’ll stop that - I know I should be breaking my draw down into components - I’ll get back to that now too

[@ThereIsNoSpoon4]

Awesome info JJ. Been a fan since Top Shot, love your work.

[@scott78731]

Mr. Racaza, there is so much correlation between shooting technique and practice, and drumming - start slow, repetive practice of a single technique, daily practice, and extended repetition. For example, the movement practice at the end. Doing 10 repetitions is not comparable to repetive practice for 30 minutes with no stopping. This is "The Simpsons Practice." When the TV show intro begins, start playing a pattern with the percussion instrument and do not stop until the theme song finishes at the end - 30 minutes. Another example is warming up. The drumming warm up (15 to 30 minutes) prepares the hands with blood flow and dexterity. The drumming warm up is excellent preparation for handling the pistol. Another correlation is clearing the mind of all thought and then focus on what is about to happen, what I call seeing ahead when playing the drums. I wonder what revelations a shooter of your ability learning to play drums would find.

[@JJRacaza111]

So true! I’ve heard this many times before!!! It’s all pattern and rhythm!

[@kennethmurphy7150]

Myles knows that I use my Dry Fire Mag for these drills with my Glock, for trigger work, and DAA weighted mags for reloads. Tape over your red dot to really accentuate target focus.

[@stevenlowe3245]

Conscious trigger pull. I can't believe I never thought of that. I'm going to have to pay attention to that. Big take away! Thank you!

[@bertalanlorincz1489]

Thank you JJ for the training. It will help me to prepare myself for the next rapid shooting competition. Brtlnfrom Hungary🧐

[@timbenham516]

Thank you good sir. I have learned to step away from all dry fire practice for atleast an hour and mentally prepare and remind myself several times that it's loaded before I actually put a round in the pipe and load it. Great tips btw we do appreciate them.

[@ericrumpel3105]

EXCELLENT video packed full of valuable info.....Thanks fer being generous & sharing !!

[@wendykoenig5201]

There are no words good enough to describe the excellent training found in this video. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@bshawwarren1]

Fantastic lesson J.J. thanks.

[@ExecutiveGun]

Terrific video.

[@Turtlefunny]

Great point on not pulling the trigger from unconscious

[@mickbrentar784]

Outstanding information! Thanks JJ!!

[@mlast3264]

Thank you. For being generous with your time and experience. Very helpful.

[@user-ju9mx2ik2k]

Great video. Really good points and food for thought. While watching, I pulled out my pistol and started dry firing around the house and testing the techniques described. Very nice.

[@Thedoug369]

I never really thought about it before, but my eyes are already on the next target before the first shot breaks. My wife noticed this while we were at the range after we watched this vid together. I never even knew I was doing it lol.

[@johnnygimms4523]

This is gold. Thank you for the information!

[@mariuspang8823]

Wow! I learned a lot for that short clip by JJ. What more if I could be in one of your classes. Thanks Tactical Hyve and JJ Racaza.

[@PROPHET_-ly1pq]

This is awesome! Love dry fire, gonna have to try this.

[@cliffcollins2497]

Thank you for the great instructions. Take care!

[@docwallace3941]

Excellent stuff JJ! Didn’t get to see your dryfire during class as it was after hours so glad you made this video.

[@TacticalHyve]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@rickm4295]

I dont think ive ever paid more attention during a video. If you are new to pistol , listen closely to this guy.

[@JayMacklin]

Probably the best explanation of dry fire practice I’ve ever seen. Well done!

[@tonycarpaccio9550]

My chrome tab cuts off the title of this video and it says "How to Dry Fire Like a Grandma" lmfao. Thanks for the video will implement into my training.

Simply outstanding, thank you!

[@mikereese15]

Seems like some great tips for competition shooting.

[@corkydavis5688]

Thank you so much for this video. I just very recently purchased some dry fire equipment, which I am eagerly waiting for. And to find this video, wow! It's overwhelming and exciting. Thank you again 😊

[@bradyscott3159]

Great clip. Very useful tips. Thank you.

[@jilee1782]

gold. most important aspect of shooting.

[@joaquincastellanos3411]

Great tips, Thanks for the information

[@gregggibson3109]

Excellent, excellent video and instructions!! I’ve made every mistake JJ refers to from pressing the trigger as a reaction to coming on target, pinning it, etc. very helpful information. Now, a question, if I understand correctly JJ, you actually begin your trigger press once your sights are on target and not as you come into the target? This has been a point of confusion for me for years as I attempted to interpret direction from other instructors on KZbin. I smiled when I saw your Beretta 92, as I also carry and practice with the PX4 DA/SA. Thanks again!!

[@JJRacaza111]

Yes, I don’t press my trigger until I “start” the sight alignment process. It is a fine line as I don’t want to wait too late either. Basically, if I’m going fast on my draw (movement) then I avoid the trigger until I start the process of my shooting (I.e looking for my sights) when I switch to that process is only when I’ll start my trigger. Any more than that, I’ve found myself to HAVE to slow my draw down coz I’m fiddling with the trigger with a live gun. :-)

[@JKING220]

fantastic stuff here. ive already run thru dry fire this morning. im about to do it again with these tips. Thanks JJ!

[@aazv23]

Excellent training & explanation video. But in Florida, we don't have OWB. We have IWB. Can you do an IWB video? I carry between 3 to 4 o'clock position. Keep it up. Thank you.

[@jeffreylucas3421]

Well done, I like the way you segment or separated the different steps of this process. Do you see any problem with DryFire trigger manipulation using 1911 trigger platform Vs single/double action trigger like yours?

[@sjk4823]

Freakin amazing video!! Normally you have to pay for this kind of info!! Very thankful for this great information. Definitely helped my dry fire game. Good to know about not dropping the mags on reload practice. I started doing mag changes standing towards my bed letting the mags drop on the bed so they don’t get any wear and tear and I don’t have to keep bending over every time. Thanks again JJ!!

[@hilarioflores3011]

Thank u sir I’m watching here in the Philippines

[@plantbro1964]

Great video JJ. I have a question. It’s because I’m new to red dot sides. I’m an old man. I’m a Fud, and all my life I shot iron sites. my question is this when you transition from one target to the next target are you looking through your red dot the whole time when you’re moving over to the next target or are you finding the target and then moving the dot to the target? from watching tactical high videos, I’ve learned a lot and being new to red dots. I learned from y’all to look through the dot target focused and look through the dot don’t look at the dot look through the dot and that really help the transition thing you were talking real fast and it wasn’t clear to me who you were looking through the dot from all the time from transitioning to the next target or are you looking at the target and then moving the dot to the target the second target or target ? Thank you for your effort to try to teach us how to shoot well it could really save a life. I don’t competition shoot. I do security at my church.

[@MrAyrton10]

Perfect! I've watched 100 times...

[@Jaygoesin]

Amazing, thank you so much! I am looking to improve my shooting and compete. With not having the most funds to spend on ammo. What’s the minimum amount of range time Would you say is needed for someone if they are doing this practice daily to every other day?

[@dereketsao7071]

Hi JJ, much appreciate this very intuitive video. One question, when your eyes will move from your target to focus on front sight? This is the most confused thing for me so far in my practice. Thanks in advance for your help.

[@SoundToyzAreUs]

This is so valuable. Right on TARGET =)

[@TheWaySB]

I got JJs shirt to represent/support him and the Philippine’s.

[@JJRacaza111]

Appreciate that sir!!! Means the world. Coz you’re basically supporting the LEOs across the country !!!

[@fightthevirus7180]

Hello sir, thanks for your excellent content...I m learning tons from your insight. I do have one question: your draw looks a bit like "bowling"...I was taught to push the gun out straight to the target from compressed ready. I am by no means close to your skill level...so is your movement quicker or more efficient based on your practice & experience..? Thanks again, greetings from Germany, Michael (active in an SEK = standing SWAT team)

[@joshroten3997]

Lots of good fine points there. 👍

[@davidmacnab5213]

Great video. Very helpful. Thank you!

[@quincymcneeley8950]

Wow that was awesome 😎 feel like I own you money for that one! Everything laid out nicely, will watch again before I dry fire tonight thanks JJ and crew!!!

[@czarmorer]

If I may suggest anything to one of the best shooters in the world.... A bar stool with your backpack on top, as opposed to on the floor, would address the issue of bending down to pick up your mags when dry-firing reloads

[@mikejeffsteel]

Most people underestimate the power of dry firing so much and then they wonder why they suck at the range.

[@cappiekillmore7754]

Brilliant. Thank you. ❤

[@romberthehobbyist]

Thanks JJ! Exc4llent tips.

[@stellan0r]

Great video! JJ, do you also draw at full speed if your first shooting position on a course is, lets say 5 yards in front of you through a small window which you have to approach first? Or do you first explode forward and do your draw while moving forward?

[@ss1330]

Great info 👍🏻 thank you 🙏🏻
