Good Sources for Information on Point Shooting

As you can see from the training courses I have taken  I think point shooting is an important part of the shooting continuum. The shooting method to be used to defend yourself  is dependent upon the situation with the distance to the threat, lighting conditions, weather, and whether other persons are being defended.  While point shooting is not the only shooting skill one should have it may be one of the most important skills to possess for self defense.  In these cases assaults often happen at close ranges and often in poor light. 

That being said if you cannot take my courses that will teach you the shooting continuum there are a number of sources of good information on the point shooting portion of that continuum. However, nothing beats training with an instructor who can teach and demonstrate skills across the shooting continuum.

Roger Phillips - Roger is a Suarez International instructor  that I have trained with multiple times.  Roger has published one book and two CD's.  The book is entitled POINT SHOOTING PROGRESSIONS. The DVD's are entitled INTRODUCTION TO POINT SHOOTING and POINT SHOOTING PROGRESSIONS.  I have copies of all three and highly recommend them.  If you have nothing else in your library these should be there.  They can be found at :

Your point shooting library also might contain the following which explain the origins of point shooting. Fairbain and Sykes are credited with publication of the first material on this subject and they taught it and used it extensively in their careers.  Col. Rex Applegate learned point shooting from them and taught it to the OSS during WWII.
