A shooter argues you shouldn't wait to be skilled before competing. Competitions expose specific weaknesses like no-shoot errors faster than solo practice. The speaker modified a drill called Accelerator after a recent match to fix the mistakes they found.
All right, so here's the deal. People always think they have to be good enough in order to shoot competition, and I am here to say that competition is what makes you practice. This lovely little drill I have here in front of me, this is called Accelerator. Well, for me today it's slightly modified because I hit a bunch of no-shoots today at competition. So because I hit no-shoots, I'm now going to practice with no-shoots. So competition gives you stuff to actually get get good at. So if you think that you're supposed to get really good and then shoot competition, it's really the other way around. You need to go try competition and figure out what it is you actually need to learn.
