Great advice for mitigating target panic! I’ve been a practitioner of the “dry run” and “loaded dry run” for a few years now. Those exercises help! I also sometimes challenge myself to shoot as part of the exercise, but only after I’ve passed over the target from left-to-right and right-to-left a few times, hovering over the target for a minimum of 5 seconds. This helps me combat the involuntary / premature release aspect of target panic. I constantly tell myself, “Breathe, relax, and focus.” That helps too, as well as accompanying it with breathing exercises. Additionally, I’ll sometimes “shake off” the tension while envisioning the stress leaving my body. Staying as loose as possible is important to getting past the panic. I used to come onto the target from the right side, working my way left until I was either on target or close enough to “jerk” onto it. To combat that bad habit, I’ve started drawing either straight onto the target or as close to it as possible. That way, there’s less wasted motion, and less of an opportunity to freeze up before making it to the bullseye. Anyway, thanks again for your insight! Hopefully, I’ve said something that helps someone as well!
I've never experienced the first type, definitely had the second...just didn't have a name for it (except "I suck!"). Relaxation and breathing has always been my approach, but I'm going to try the dry run approach too so this was great! Thank you 🙏
I would say this is a very basic understanding of target panic but helps people get to know the subject and diagnose a version that they might have. For example I know some shooters that can't get they're breathe under control, release early/late, etc. My personal version is blurry vision not due to physical conditions but mental blockage that comes with the pressure of tournaments. Everyone is different but most will expirence the versions of target panic you talked about. Awesome video yet again!
Yeah, I probably should have said something along those lines. I'm trying to keep things as basic as possible for the broadest appeal, but it wouldn't have hurt to just mention that it takes other forms as well.
I never really thought about, or knew about target panic, but after watching this I started to overthink target panic and that made me panic and caused me to have target panic and now I’m panicking. 😅 Sometimes ignorance is bliss
Great thanks bro

Enjoying the videos. Met you briefly at ECST. My daughter loves the tattoo on your arm and wants me to ask if there is a story behind them.

Great advice, keep’em coming!! ❤
