Description
Get practical guidance for carrying after 60: ricardoshipman.store
After a year away from practice, I don’t assume my old skills are still there—I rebuild them one step at a time. I’m 66, spent decades teaching police officers to shoot, and even the timer can catch me when I’ve skipped practice.
In this video, I walk through a 30-day comeback plan for shooters over 60, with five fixes in order: starting dry practice at home, making your first range trip count, practicing a concealed draw, building both-hand shooting, and setting a monthly standard. I also share the month I failed my own standard and the safeguards I use to review progress.
