Gunfighter Moment – Pat McNamara
http://soldiersystems.net/2012/09/15/gunfighter-moment-pat-mcnamara/
“I encourage those that I’m training to consider training the way a professional athlete would. The professional athlete does not focus on the outcome. Outcome based training is an anachronism. The pro athlete uses performance based training.
We are consumed by outcomes; how many, how much, how fast? vs. ‘how well?’
When we are consumed by the outcome it will sabotage our ability to perform.
Slow down and perform the perfect repetition. Be introspective. Self coach and self critique. The probability of achieving the outcome you desire will increase once you let go of the need to have it.
If you do what you have always done, you will get what you have always gotten.”
Patrick McNamara
SGM, US Army (Ret)
Patrick McNamara spent twenty-two years in the United States Army in a myriad of special operations units. When he worked in the premier special missions unit, he became an impeccable marksman, shooting with accurate, lethal results and tactical effectiveness. McNamara has trained tactical applications of shooting to people of all levels of marksmanship, from varsity level soldiers, and police officers who work the streets to civilians with little to no time behind the trigger.
His military experience quickly taught him that there is more to tactical marksmanship than merely squeezing the trigger. Utilizing his years of experience, McNamara developed a training methodology that is safe, effective and combat relevant and encourages a continuous thought process. This methodology teaches how to maintain safety at all times and choose targets that force accountability, as well as provides courses covering several categories, including individual, collective, on line and standards.
While serving as his Unit's Marksmanship NCO, he developed his own marksmanship club with NRA, CMP, and USPSA affiliations. Mac ran monthly IPSC matches and ran semi annual military marksmanship championships to encourage marksmanship fundamentals and competitiveness throughout the Army.
He retired from the Army's premier hostage rescue unit as a Sergeant Major and is the author of T.A.P.S. (Tactical Application of Practical Shooting).
