    Default F.A.S.T. drill

    Have been seing a lot of fast drill vids etc lateley so having received my timer last week I wanted to give it a go myself this morning.

    What time is considered as good, avarage, fast or superfast etc?

    Did 15 FAST drills.

    Avarage: 6.24
    Slowest : 7.94
    Fastest : 5. 41

    IIRC any time under 7 seconds is considered good.

    Please talk a newbie through the F.A.S.T. drill. I've seen a Youtube video or two.

    What are the steps and what are the benefits of practicing this drill?

    F.A.S.T. (Fundamentals, Accuracy, & Speed Test)

    designed by Todd Green
    Range: 7 yards
    Target: 3×5 card (head), 8″ plate (body)
    Start position: weapon concealed or in duty condition with all holster retention devices active; shooter facing downrange in relaxed stance with arms down at sides
    Rounds fired: 6
    Shooter loads gun with a total of two rounds. On start signal, shooter draws and fires two rounds at the head target; performs a slidelock reload; and fires four rounds at the body target.


    Ranking:

    • 10+ seconds: Novice
    • less than 10 seconds: Intermediate
    • less than 7 seconds: Advanced
    • less than 5 seconds: Expert

    If shooter is using a retention holster and flap (covered) magazine pouches, subtract 0.5 seconds from the recorded time. If shooter is using an open-top retention holster (e.g., Blackhawk SERPA or Safariland ALS) with no concealment, add 0.50 seconds to the recorded time.
