Tactical Police Training Drill Demo by Black Police Officer - Atlanta Police Shooting

In this video I review one of the best shooting drills I've ever done both as a cop and now as a civilian. This drill, taught by Mind.Body.1. Founder Nicholas Davenport M.S., integrates mental acuity, peripheral vision and shooting fundamentals.

U.S. Navy SEAL Rich Graham, Founder of Full Spectrum Warrior, brought Nick into is training program as a coach to help students work their minds at the same time as their trigger finger. To say this drill (and the ones that followed) were incredibly valuable would be a gross understatement.

As a Police Veteran and a Certified Firearms Instructor, I can say with a great degree of certainty that shooting training drills like this should be mandatory for police officers across the country. It's easy to shoot a piece of static cardboard on a climate controlled range with your heart rate at a nice, relaxed rate. But let's face it... that is NOT reality.

In the June 12, 2020 shooting of Rayshard Brooks by Atlanta Police, those two officers who were fighting with Mr. Brooks most likely hard their heart rates well above 150 BPM...and THEN they had to assess a threat, draw a weapon and fire rounds. I assure you that the chances either of these officers ever did a drill like the one in this video is most likely 0%.

If you are a police officer and want to learn more about this next level training, I'll post some links below. Maybe share this with your department's training officer and see what they think. But truth be told, even if your department doesn't send you to training like this, don't you think your life is worth going and getting this training on your own time? Think about the alternative...
