Remember the feeling you get when you perfectly execute a shot? When, seemingly without conscious effort, everything happens just right all by itself? It's as if your eyes and hands are a single unit and the fluid movement of the gun to the target is in perfect tune with your mind and body. Dan Carlisle, one of America's top sporting shooters and instructors and a guy who has devoted years to understanding the mechanics and science of shooting, acknowledges that special feeling as the shooter's ultimate reward. He calls it "the magic in the moment." Dan has experienced a lot of magic moments in his career, from his world-records and Olympic medal to the many competition wins in trap, skeet, sporting clays and FITASC. The long journey and countless thousands of targets he's shot have done more than bring him a closet full of awards. They've crystallized his instructional process to the point where he can teach just about any shooter to better himself. In fast Dan was voted the shooting instructor of the year in 1999. What Dan teaches is more a practical system than theoretical methodology. It blends basic geometry with speed to give the shooter a "formula" for breaking targets.
