This is a small glimpse of why Travis is an amazing instructor. What sent him apart for me was he does not teach technique, he teaches principals. Technique will only take you so far. Principals will allow you to take yourself to your own limits, huge differences. Thanks Travis for a great video and being a real person witch is far more important in life.
Whoever controls this channel please make Travis do more of these. Of everything I see as far as drills and tactics are concerned nothing comes close to the knowledge I obtain from listening to him. Awesome vid, keep them up guys!
we are working on it! Travis is a busy guy and its hard for him to devote a lot of time to video when he is all over the place (world) and R&D training etc... BUT there are a lot of blogs coming since we did film a lot in one setting and will be releasing a couple every month! from now on! thans for the support
Those last two were beautiful with that movement. Can you imagine running into a guy like this? Rounds on target so quickly and accurately, being elusive at the same time.
+Andy Shush you. :) I remember going to the Citadel before they closed and the lady saying "you ain't going to California are you" "No ma'am" says I show her my CA Id for verification. She puts my "purchases" in my bag (very discreet, a Victoria Secret bag, but then I am not sure if I should be more nervous about the bag or the actual contents inside being revealed) and completes the purchase. I walk out of the store waiting for the Spanish Inquisition, since you never expect them, but it seems my expecting negated their arrival. Which was unexpected. The only Spanish thing I saw was the cook at the buffet later that afternoon, making me a mean enchilada. Needless to say, "I" would never offend our "progressive" state by bringing home such barbaric high-capacity liberal-slaying clipazines.
We are constantly ingrained with that speed, intensity and violence of action mentality...tactics, tactics, tactics. Very informative. Definetely peels away the layers and examines the underlying issues. Excellent. Thanks Travis. Learn something every time I tune in.
Travis, that was awesome! I am relatively new to handgun shooting and have shot well over 10,000 rounds(countless dry fires), don't think I will ever get to where you are. Again, absolutely amazing! I could watch folks like you and Ron Avery all day, it is so fascinating to me to watch you guys work.
The way you break down shooting and tactics into such fine detail is amazing critical thinking. It not only gives answers to questions but also presents questions with answers that many do not think of. It's refreshing to see this as oppose to the norm being "do it like this because its better" etc. My goal is to train in at least one of your classes one day, but my failure point is time currently. I have a new son, and a business to run, so I have very little time to travel. I hope you come to Las Vegas as a destination so that I may have the honor of your instruction. Mick-
Funny how the media never have guys like Haley, Costa, Lamb, Vickers, etc on their shows to talk about the great things that are happening with in the fire ams community. They always manage to find some nitwit....Excellent vid as always
Another note, zero is very good and doesn't deserve to be blasted. We are all so lucky for the age we live in to have access to this thing called RUclips, we can see what all the great instructors have to share, mr Haley is soooo good at articulating his lessons, certainly one of the best, but taking training in person is needed too, I have got so far to go with my learning, and not doing it for law enforcement, just for fun, mayby a small local competition and to be more proficient in case the worst case scenario does pop up to be able to handle it better. Again Mr Haley, you are amazing!!
I tried doing this yesterday at our departments range. It is actually really simple to get good at. I am still super slow but when you go and try it, it will probably feel really natural to you.
Originally started watching these vids because he's badass but now I find myself taking away much more and seeking and applying the life application aspects. Semper Fi brother
Thank you for your great videos Mr Haley. You have a very large following in my shooting circles and we use your material to train ourselves. If you ever decide to come to South Africa you will be very well received. God bless and stay safe!
Just wanted to stop by and say thank you for producing these videos. I recently regurgitated a lot of your stuff while teaching a class at my department. The class (geared toward plain clothes CID personnel) went really well. I used a few of your targets from the 8.5x11 target pack you have available and the Lucky Charms target was a big hit. Wish I could take a class in person, but for now these videos are great.
Thank you for putting these types of videos out. I'm gonna try this style when I practice with my handgun and with my AR. I know/hope I never use this style in a real world setting but it's nice to shake things up in the backyard :-)
Thank you Gerard I feel like I would be letting myself down if I didn't put my actions where my mouth is, and then in turn letting the people I serve down.
This is the old El Presidente without the mag change done buy Lt Jeff Cooper ( the father of modern tactical training) back in the 60s. Old school always works.
i watch this video a lot. really enjoy your vids. seems like i can always learn something new or remind myself of what i need to be doing when i shoot. slowing it down and practicing, big tips to remember and follow through with!
You have to listen to some Barry white while you’re out there to get your rhythm going. 🤣 I’m used to making comments on garand thumbs channel. Ha. Awesome video. Love all the drills you put out here. I just found your channel because of his channel
Awesome drill Hayley. Im trying to find a outdoor range in my area so that I can practice, get back in shooting shape as I say lol. So thanks again and keep them coming. Knowledge is power! SEMPER FI
Travis, a brother Spanish marine here. Thanks a lot for sharing not onky the drill but also the right explanations about it. I really appreciate it. Maybe a stupid question, but I have to ask it to know the answer. Are you using your sights? You know some guys talk about point shooting and instinctive shooting.
Bad ass! And as always very professional. I wish you and you're family a happy safe 4th of July. Thank you for serving. Its men amd women like you that make it possible for is to have a independence day.
what makes a person faster is also "awareness" of the environment around them, this will add time in your favor and give you a head start even if the attacker is a faster shooter. since real life isnt a beeper or buzzer, its not the fastest that wins but the first to be aware and place shot accurately, there have been many plain citizens with no tactical shooting experience who have won shootouts based only on awareness, because being alert is the same as speed, you can also tell by body language when a threat is going to happen, many full length videos on youtube that teach body movements and how to interpret them.
Travis can we see a video of your favorite carbine or handguns and the mods you use for ideas for us viewers to think about. Or what knifes you like to carry.
5.56 Or 5.45? No, but I make a large part of my life studying as many religions and beliefs as I can to better understand the entire world, not just the one I live in.
HaleyStrategic I can dig it .. well said. People live their lives so differently all over the world it's crazy. It's very interesting. I'm searching for that higher power man .. or at least some sort or some aspect of spirituality .. trying to get my shit together and get my life right. Thank you for the insight into your approach. I admire your accomplishments.
5.56 Or 5.45? Not trying to bash you or anything but why are you searching for something beyond you to help you out? It's you, you're the one that has to work hard and get things done, even if that means the shitty jobs that no one else is willing to do and making excuses for.You're the one doing all the work not some higher being.
Look at the first shots and how "slow" he's done it. Those double taps were incredibly all grouped together and very fast follow-up. In the fast part I can't even comment.... holy moly.
Just FYI at around 6:16 when the tension definition pops up at the bottom of the video you misspelled a word. Its "stretched" not "streched". Just thought you should know and I appreciate what you do for the industry.
Curious about two things. How far from the targets are you and what type of ear protection are you wearing? Thanks for the great videos just getting setup to try this drill out. Peace and blessings.....
I know this is an old video, but do you incorporate leg workouts and training? I do Muay Thai, i do a lot of kicking. It is 100% hip and leg work while relative to your upper body. Switching fast. It seems like it would be useful for this drill.
Great video. Love the way you break everything down. Reminds me of trainer when I used to box. Hey just an off topic question because I've seen you shoot glock and also m&ps before. Are the m&ps as durable and reliable as glock? I heard from someone before that shoots alot of uspsa that the m&ps would need barrels and parts changed alot more frequently than glock. What's your take on it between the two?
Mr. Haley, seems like there are flashes of what looks to be a PowerPoint presentation in this video - how would I go about getting a copy of this presentation? Thank you sir.
I run a single stack 1911 so running this is perfect for me because i can work an active reload into it. Or maybe a tactical reload im fuzzy on the specifics of terminology
Travis, would it be faster and more efective to put one round on each target and then on the "return" movement saturate each with more rounds? Would it disturb (at least) every target faster, even if not totally efective and create more time to go back and shot them again? Just thinking... Thanks for share this video and explanation. Greetings from Brazil!
of course it will always depend on the situation, but I like 2 out of the gate because most of the time one rd does shit... but if I can get 2 in each (6total) in under 1.5 sec thats pretty good odds.
Do you know if, we in Upstate South Carolina, have schools or personal trainers who present shooting to their students with close to the same mindset as you? ( everyone is different I understand that) Im relatively new to Pistols, and really want to be learn correctly. I want to be able to protect my loved ones if necessary .
I love it when Travis puts this training out to the public for those of us that cannot attend his classes live.
You never cease to amaze us with your high level of skill and professionalism.
You have a huge respect from us.
Cheers from Slovenia! :)
And Brazil!
And Ireland
And Canada
And Australia
and
I like actually seeing Travis perform these drills because he illustrates it well and also creates a good benchmark to work towards.

In California this is the 2242reload2 drill!
+Andy "Compliant" magazines and a drill press is all I am going to say...
Dave Smith or a trip to Vegas 😂
+Andy
Shush you. :)
I remember going to the Citadel before they closed and the lady saying "you ain't going to California are you"
"No ma'am" says I show her my CA Id for verification.

Dave Smith nor would i good sir, but i will say that this drill goes alot better when you dont have to stop and reload!😂😂
***** lmao!!
Great video.

I love that he explains his mistakes to help people learn from them. unlike some trainers who act like they didn't happen.

I have been watching your videos for the last few days and you are awesome. You and people like you are like super hero's to me.
Another note, zero is very good and doesn't deserve to be blasted.

Again, Great to see someone do a video with substance. Talk about and discuss exercise science topics....biomechanics.
travis haley for president 2016
Haley is actually writing the Gun-Kata (ref: Equilibrium)
Lol

First time watching you perform...your tactics are so well performed, not just words brother...you back them up with superb performance!
Thank you Gerard I feel like I would be letting myself down if I didn't put my actions where my mouth is, and then in turn letting the people I serve down.
Please more videos like this, this helps so much.
Why the heck would 10 people dislike this video? Great video! Food for thought for my next range trip for sure!
This is the old El Presidente without the mag change done buy Lt Jeff Cooper ( the father of modern tactical training) back in the 60s. Old school always works.
i watch this video a lot. really enjoy your vids. seems like i can always learn something new or remind myself of what i need to be doing when i shoot. slowing it down and practicing, big tips to remember and follow through with!
No impossibilities. I dig it! Things are improbable never impossible!
Amazing, incredible skill and form, like a boss Travis.
You have to listen to some Barry white while you’re out there to get your rhythm going. 🤣 I’m used to making comments on garand thumbs channel. Ha. Awesome video. Love all the drills you put out here. I just found your channel because of his channel
Excellent drill! I'm definitely going to practice this when the weather breaks!
great video. I like the "why's" of what you're doing, as well as the demonstration of skill.
Best instructor on RUclips. Bar NONE! 3.45 is my average on this drill. lol
Thanks Travis
I will be on the look out for that video
Thanks for the video. Good stuff. I've got the 10rd dilemma up here in NY as well
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise, Travis.
You're amazing. Thank you so much for these instructional videos!
9years and still awesome
Excellent explanation of how and why. Great video.
well done Travis.
Awesome drill Hayley. Im trying to find a outdoor range in my area so that I can practice, get back in shooting shape as I say lol. So thanks again and keep them coming. Knowledge is power! SEMPER FI
We don't deserve you man.. Amazing as always
As always I feel like I am drinking from the "Haley fire hose of knowledge" with my teacup of a brain! Thanks for sharing!
1 thing at a time then move forward. I have a tendency to try to learn everything at once and have to slow myself down
Great videos. I'm just starting out with pistols. I shot rifles as a kid. Keep making videos. Good work Lots of good info
Travis, what were those materials you were showing us at around the 2:15 mark, what book or pamphlet?
Travis, a brother Spanish marine here. Thanks a lot for sharing not onky the drill but also the right explanations about it. I really appreciate it.
Maybe a stupid question, but I have to ask it to know the answer. Are you using your sights? You know some guys talk about point shooting and instinctive shooting.
Great vídeo. Thanks to share with us. 🇧🇷
Great drill! Thanks for the video!
Is it possible to get access to those slides you put up on mindsets and center of gravity?
Bad ass! And as always very professional. I wish you and you're family a happy safe 4th of July. Thank you for serving. Its men amd women like you that make it possible for is to have a independence day.
Thank you for the video. Great advice and amazing stuff!! Learned a great deal.

Awesome video, thanks for sharing.
Question, where can i get targets like those?
Great shooting, as always!
Awesome drill Travis, I'm definitely going to incorporate this into my range time.
Favorite drill to this day
Wow, that's fast and accurate. Awesome
Great instructional video.
Dang. That was some impressive drill slaying ..
That rocked. Great drill.
Travis can we see a video of your favorite carbine or handguns and the mods you use for ideas for us viewers to think about. Or what knifes you like to carry.
sure thing that is actually on the list to get done.
+HaleyStrategic still on the list?
Wow, that is awesome learning there.
reference this video for more details for this one: VENTI 100 SHOT WAKE UP DRILL
Hey Mr haley .. are you a religious man?
5.56 Or 5.45? No, but I make a large part of my life studying as many religions and beliefs as I can to better understand the entire world, not just the one I live in.

Outstanding !
Damn that dude is a beast. Id love to do a travis haley class!
The hip application is the same that is taught to us in our martial arts training.
Look at the first shots and how "slow" he's done it. Those double taps were incredibly all grouped together and very fast follow-up. In the fast part I can't even comment.... holy moly.
I like the drill and will run it myself. But I'd really like to see you do more starting from concealment.
Just FYI at around 6:16 when the tension definition pops up at the bottom of the video you misspelled a word. Its "stretched" not "streched". Just thought you should know and I appreciate what you do for the industry.
thanks Sean, I will THRASH the editor!
Great shooting Leatherneck
I would like to see you run these drills with a duty holster. Safariland level 3, same holster I use at work.
Curious about two things. How far from the targets are you and what type of ear protection are you wearing? Thanks for the great videos just getting setup to try this drill out. Peace and blessings.....
GOOD DEAL, THANKS FOR SHARING SIR
Very informative.
Cool man!
Thanks for sharing
Good work!
Awesome video Mr. Haley! I'll definitely be doing this and the Venti Shot drill. What holster and rig are you running?
I know this is an old video, but do you incorporate leg workouts and training? I do Muay Thai, i do a lot of kicking. It is 100% hip and leg work while relative to your upper body. Switching fast. It seems like it would be useful for this drill.

Excellent!
Awesome stuff.
nice job
Great video thanks
My idol, Awesome Shooting.
hola travis respeto todo lo que dices y haces es posible que publiques un video de proteccion vip o como proteger a personalidades
I'm waiting for a Jerry Miculek video where he's doing this drill in under 1 second...
I would love to see that! It anyone can he can!
albi131 You'll never see it. RUclips has a minimum upload length of 1sec.
His video is too short.
I think Travis Haley is the guy you don't want to have a gunfight with
Great drill. What earmuffs are those?
Very nice vid!
Sorry if this question has already been asked. How far away from the target should you do this drill?
I wish you could come and teach the SRT at Ft Riley
Patrick, make it happen! ;-)
Can you send me some information, and a better, more direct way to contact you?
Great video great info
I run a single stack 1911 so running this is perfect for me because i can work an active reload into it. Or maybe a tactical reload im fuzzy on the specifics of terminology
Right handed shooter left eye dominant
My shots on target go hight left any way to correct problem Travis
So. Freaking. Awesome.!
Travis, would it be faster and more efective to put one round on each target and then on the "return" movement saturate each with more rounds? Would it disturb (at least) every target faster, even if not totally efective and create more time to go back and shot them again? Just thinking...

HaleyStrategic Thank you for the answer... made sense. And keep coming with the videos and explanations.
Very nice drill! What's the brand of those pants?
Thanks mate!
Do you know if, we in Upstate South Carolina, have schools or personal trainers who present shooting to their students with close to the same mindset as you? ( everyone is different I understand that)
Im relatively new to Pistols, and really want to be learn correctly. I want to be able to protect my loved ones if necessary .
