Point Shooting / Instinct Shooting / Snap Shooting


A Sampling of Pennies Shot From The Air & A Quarter After 100 x Aerial Hits

This page is a growing repository for links to Point Shooting, Instinct / Instinctive Shooting, and Snap Shooting articles on the web.  I learned how to shoot like this as a kid and refined the skill over the years.  Today I actively train my students in this type of shooting with handgun, rifle and shotgun.  In just a few hours of practice we regularly have people hitting hand-thrown targets out of the air and hitting ground targets without ever once using the sights.  Anyone can learn to do this!
