Course of Fire

Start standing in the box with hands relaxed at your sides. You must start with some part of both your feet touching a fault line. For example, both your big toes touching the front fault line, or both your heels touching the back fault line.

On the buzzer,

  1. Engage the center target with 2 rounds from within the box.
  2. Then, from outside the box, engage all the upper A zones with 2 rounds.

You must move out of the box from the side opposite where you start. For example, if you start in the front, you must move out the back.

Diagonal directions work as well, if you start in a corner with one foot touching each fault line, then move out of the box over the opposite corner. Be sure to alternate starting positions

Description

Another drill from Ben Stoeger's dry fire routine, this drill emphasizes precision shooting while stationary, paired with smooth movement and efficient target transitions as you exit the box. It’s perfect for USPSA shooters aiming to improve foot placement awareness, dynamic movement, and accuracy.
