Hi, I'm retired Navy SEAL Chris Sajnog, author of Navy SEAL Shooting and one of the top 20 most frequently asked questions I get is: Why do I shoot bad when I speed up?
Now Start Your timer is I share with you five reasons you're shooting goes downhill as soon as you speed up in today's five in under five FAQ.
Alright, so this is a question I get all the time. That's why it made it to my top 20 list, and it's very common for people to do great shooting, slow fire. But as soon as they try adding speed their group opens up or they just completely miss the target. So I'm going to give you five reasons why that's possibly happening.
