D3 - Sharpening - Carbine
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Disruptive Environment, or D3, is designed as an advanced applications course to accelerate skill-set development for experienced shooters. The curriculum is relevant to anyone from the responsible armed citizen, to active MIL and LEO. Shooting performance can be subdivided into fundamentals, skill-sets, and tactics. For reference, our D5 curriculum focuses on the development of a solid foundation in fundamentals and human factors, where the D3 curriculum moves more into the development of next level skill-sets in low-light/no light, vehicles/cover considerations, home/business defense, and urban vs rural environments. This multiday, advanced applications format, integrates light/illumination techniques (both handheld and weapon mounted), movement, communication, and shooting, into decisive actions. The course includes lectures, demonstrations, deliberate practice models, and multiple exercises where students will be challenged to combine techniques that work for them into solutions that can potentially save lives.
Warning
This course should not be selected if you have not been through a foundational course with us (D5/D7 Courses) or another reputable organization/instructor. All advanced application students must have fundamental weapon safety and weapon manipulation knowledge. A baseline assessment on safety, speed, accuracy, manipulations, and movement is conducted upon arrival to determine if students current skill levels are adequate to safely proceed through the course. Students will be pulled from training for safety violations.
Core topics covered for all weapon systems:
- Haley Strategic Train approach to learning
- Why “science” and how to create a model for excellence
- How deliberate practice accelerates learning
- How critical stress (body alarm response) affects visual acuity and efficiency
- Stress management before, during and after
- Baseline assessment (Qualification)
- Supplemental instruction relative to baseline results
- Biomechanics and maximizing the efficiency of the draw
- Position work & biomechanical considerations in all shooting positions
Just as a knife is forged, folded, beaten and sharpened, we must expose ourselves to these processes with the carbine. This course is purely performance based for those who are wanting to enroll into one of our more advanced courses, or simply wanting to up your qualification score at work or improve your performance in shooting competitions. The diagnostics based curriculum will establish performance baselines and identify performance and or opportunity gaps.
