Target Configuration When incorporating the Props during training, placement should be done in a manner that would simulate natural holding positions for the props (a knife in the right hand by the side, or raised - off to the side of the target). For added training value, set up targets in depth so you have a mix a of shoot and no-shoot targets. This will help you in training to be aware of your targets’ foreground and background. This encourages you to start recognizing angles. Meaning, “If I take a shot from my current position, will my round impact more than what I intend to?” or “Do I need to change position so that I only shoot what I intend to?” (i.e. round accountability). Think on Your Feet For maximum benefit you can use the silhouette targets non-traditionally. Normally when shooting IPSC style targets, the brown perforated side is known as the “shoot” or “threat” side, and the white side indicates a “no-shoot”. Break the habit of only getting a snapshot view of your target. You can do this by making threat targets out of both the white and brown sides of the IPSC, and doing the same with no-shoots. This forces you to start looking for detail within the target. When you train this way, it gives your brain repetitions in truly distinguishing between shoot and no shoot targets. Over time will increase the speed you are able to process complex information. Scenario Based Training Props can also be positioned on targets where a possible threat may not immediately be a shoot target. For example, you can be given a scenario with specific details, have to locate and identify a specific target, then a range buddy can provide you with additional information (e.g., “subject holding the [weapon] is now charging you with the [weapon] raised,” or “the subject is compliant with your commands and has dropped the [weapon].”) Prop use in this manner is up to the user. Naturally occurring situations can be similar, but no one incident is exactly alike. https://sobekdesigns.com/contact-1 daily 0.75 2024-01-11 https://sobekdesigns.com/privacy daily 0.75 2022-01-21 https://sobekdesigns.com/terms-of-use daily 0.75 2022-01-21 https://sobekdesigns.com/shop daily 0.75 2020-11-30 https://sobekdesigns.com/shop/safety-mag monthly 0.5 2025-04-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ccb4e697a1fbd667480cd7d/0685b15a-2224-4ef9-88ea-2e0c021eabda/DSC05713.jpg Shop -
