This explanation of efficient target transitions comes from one of my recent Cheat Codes of Shooting Lvl 1 courses. This course created by Tactical Hyve will take years off your learning curve to becoming a very good shooter. It focuses on mastery of the principles, specifically stance, grip, trigger, control, vision, and multiple target engagements. Shooting is not complicated at all. The fundamentals are extremely easy to understand conceptually. This is not algebra or calculus. The challenging part becomes mastering the basics and getting them to the point where they are second nature and you don’t need to think about them. When that clicks that’s when you become an extremely good shooter. This class not only explains in great detail all of the principles of Shooting. It provides you with takeaways and things for you to focus when you go back to your own range to train so you’re able to be intentional with your training.
My next class is August 15 at Homestead Training Center which is sponsored by MIAMI GUNS & SILENCERS

🎯 The 90/10 Principle: Why Your Sights Wobble on the Draw (And How to Fix It)
Most shooters blow this. They rip the gun out at 100% speed, slam to a stop, and wonder why their sights are bouncing like a pogo stick when it’s time to break the shot.
Here’s the fix: 90/10.
Drive the gun 90% of the way to full extension as fast as humanly possible. Then — take your foot off the gas. Glide that last 10% into position. Your sights settle clean. No wobble. No wait. Ready to send it.
Think of it like pulling into a parking spot. You don’t floor it to the line and slam the brakes — you brake early and coast in smooth. Same principle, same result: control.
⚡ Fast where it counts.
🎯 Smooth where it matters.
💥 Hits when it’s time.
Stop chasing your sights after every presentation. Master the glide, and watch your first-shot accuracy transform.
Drop a 🎯 if this clicked for you. Save this for your next range session.

Most shooters chase the front sight between shots. I don’t. Watch this drill closely. I’m looking OVER the sights, not AT them, and putting three rounds in the same spot. The secret isn’t aim. It’s a locked wrist. When your wrists are locked, the gun recoils and returns to the exact same position every single time. No searching. No resetting. No wasted tenths of a second.
This is one of the things we work on at the Tactical Hyve Cheat Codes of Shooting level one course. I’ll be hosting this course this weekend at our private outdoor range in Okeechobee Florida. Send me a message if you want to get in on this or a future class.
Try it at the range this week and tell me what changed.

The most important defensive skill most South Florida gun owners have never trained:
Not accuracy. Not draw speed. Not caliber selection.
Situational awareness.
Here is what that actually means in practice:
Walking into a restaurant and automatically noting where the exits are. Scanning a parking lot before committing to a route back to your car. Noticing when someone's behavior does not fit the environment.
These habits take seconds. They can change outcomes entirely.
Most defensive encounters give warning to a person who is paying attention. A trained defender with strong awareness has options -- distance, exits, time to prepare -- that an unaware person never has.
This is a trainable skill. It costs nothing to practice every day.
At Suburban Protector, we build situational awareness into every course we teach across Palm Beach and Broward County.

Here is the uncomfortable truth about most concealed carriers in South Florida:
They have a license. They have a gun. They have almost no real defensive training.
A CCW class checks a legal box. It does not prepare you for a real encounter.
What most people have never practiced:
Drawing from a holster under time pressure. Shooting accurately while moving. Making a legal use-of-force decision in under a second. Staying aware of what is happening around them while engaging a threat.
These are not advanced operator skills. They are the basics of genuine defensive readiness -- and they are exactly what most South Florida gun owners have never trained.
At Suburban Protector in Boynton Beach, we close that gap for everyday people across Palm Beach and Broward County.
Real drills. Real scenarios. Real defensive readiness. Not just range time.

Your stance is doing 3 jobs every single time you shoot. Most people only know one of them.
A lot of people think about stance as just a starting position. You plant your feet, you raise the gun, you shoot. But a good shooting stance isn’t passive. It’s actively working for you in three specific ways, and if it’s failing at any one of them, your shots are going to show it.
The first job is mobility, stability and balance. You need to be able to move in any direction without losing your base, stay stable enough to shoot accurately under pressure, and maintain balance whether you’re standing still or reacting to a threat. A stance that looks good standing flat-footed on the range can completely fall apart the moment your feet have to move.
The second job is recoil management. Every time you press the trigger, the gun is pushing back against you. A proper stance uses your body’s structure to absorb and control that rearward force so you get back on target faster and stay in control through multiple shots. If your stance isn’t built for recoil, the gun is controlling you instead of the other way around.
The third job is natural point of aim. This is the one most people skip entirely. Your body should be aligned to the target before you ever raise the gun. When your stance is set correctly, the pistol naturally points where you’re looking. When it isn’t, you’re compensating with your wrists and arms on every single shot without even realizing it.
Three jobs. One stance. All of it has to work together.
This is exactly the kind of foundational training we build every course around at Suburban Protector. Because the basics aren’t boring. They’re the reason everything else either works or doesn’t.

Thinking about buying your first gun in South Florida?
Before you spend a dollar at the counter, here is the most important thing an NRA instructor can tell you:
The firearm you choose matters less than what you do with it.
Purpose, fit, and training commitment will determine whether that firearm actually protects your family -- or just gives you a false sense of security.
Here is the sequence that actually works:
1. Define your purpose before you shop. Home defense and concealed carry in South Florida have different requirements.
2. Try rental fi****ms at a local Palm Beach County range before buying. Ergonomics are personal.
3. Choose 9mm unless you have a specific reason not to. Manageable recoil, affordable to practice with, excellent defensive performance.
4. Budget for training alongside the firearm -- not as an afterthought.
At Suburban Protector, we train everyday civilians across Palm Beach and Broward County to handle real defensive scenarios, not just punch paper at a static range.

Your firearm is only useful if you can get to it in time.
In this video, I break down one of the most overlooked — and most critical — skills every concealed carrier needs to develop: drawing from concealment efficiently and under pressure. Not just on a static range with no stress, but the kind of draw that actually works when your hands are shaking, your adrenaline is through the roof, and someone has already closed the distance on you.
Most people who carry daily have never truly pressure-tested their draw. They’ve shot thousands of rounds downrange and can hit targets all day long — but they’ve never timed themselves getting from concealment to first shot. That gap between comfort and competence is exactly where the danger lives.
A smooth, efficient draw isn’t about being fast for the sake of ego. It’s about collapsing the window of vulnerability between the moment you recognize a threat and the moment you’re in a position to stop it. Every wasted motion, every fumble with your cover garment, every hesitation costs you time you likely don’t have.
This is a perishable skill. It degrades without deliberate practice, and it cannot be faked when the moment counts.
Whether you’re new to concealed carry or you’ve been doing it for years, this is the kind of foundational work that separates people who carry a gun from people who are actually prepared to use one.
Train with purpose. Stay consistent. Your life — or someone else’s — may depend on it.
