ZERT Coffee & Chaos 129 – Training With Purpose – Why Range Drills Matter in Self-Defense

In this episode, we break down how the drills you run on the range directly translate to real-world self-defense situations. From drawing from concealment to engaging multiple targets, every rep builds the muscle memory and confidence you need when seconds count. We also dive into one of the most overlooked tools in firearms training—the shot timer. Learn why tracking your speed under pressure is just as important as accuracy, and how shaving even fractions of a second can make all the difference in a defensive encounter.

If you carry, train, or just want to take your shooting skills to the next level, this episode will help you connect the dots between practice on the range and performance when it truly matters.
