In this action-packed episode featuring GunBelt, Johnny Law, Mr Sandman & Mongoose, we dive into the heart of Xtreme Fast Draw (XFDA) and tackle the burning questions everyone has, why do we lean?. From Hollywood’s portrayal of fast shooters to the real techniques that make top competitors so fast, we’re breaking it all down.
• Hollywood vs. Reality: Did Old West gunfighters really shoot as fast as we do today? We break down the differences between on-screen stunts and real-life fast draw.
• The Importance of Stance: Why does leaning back give you the edge? We explore the unique laid-back stance in XFDA and why it helps shooters achieve lightning-fast speeds. “Your body wants to take over, but when you relax and lean back, your speed improves dramatically,” one shooter reveals.
• Common Mistakes in Fast Draw: From missing the target to improperly drawing from the holster, we dig into the most common mistakes shooters make when trying to speed up their draw. We also discuss the challenge of getting your mind and body in sync for flawless execution. “It’s all about timing and muscle memory,” one expert shares.
• Performance Under Pressure: The real test happens when the timer starts. Find out why shooters often perform differently in practice than during competitions and how nerves can make or break a round. “When I’m by myself, I shoot twos all day,” one shooter confesses. “But on the line with competitors, it’s a whole different experience.”
• Community Love: We take a moment to shout out some key members of the XFDA community, including Richard Young aka “The Gentleman”, who are facing personal challenges. The love and support in the XFDA family are strong! 💥
Why You Should Try XFDA: If you’ve ever thought about trying fast draw, this episode explains why the sport is so addictive and fun. “You might look silly at first, but when you start getting faster, you won’t care how you look—you’ll just want to win,” one shooter explains.
