The guy that gets the most points per second gets all the stage points.
I spent 18 months of my life obsessed with becoming a GM. I had a DVD of Blake Miguez and wanted to do "that."
As I shot classifiers, I observed that most of them were 6 shots, a reload, and 6 more shots.
I got really good at "that."
And you know what sucks? Being a GM that can't shoot field courses very well. I spent a couple years treating field courses as a group of classifiers with a sprint in between. That wins locally, sucks nationally.
And then just this year I finally figured it out.
The guy that gets the most points per second get all the stage points.
I think the best way to train for "both" sports is to dry fire the crap out of your draws and reloads (measured in hours per day, not minutes)and then practice shooting while moving in live fire.
In a field course, if you're not shooting, you're not getting ANY points per second. NONE.
Always be shooting, always be moving.
