In Episode 121 of She Shield, I sit down with competitive shooter and coach Joey Sauerland to talk about the power of dry fire and the tools that can take your training to the next level. Joey shares how using a shot timer, metronome, and structured drills can help shooters of all levels refine their skills and measure real progress.
We also dive into what it truly means to define success in shooting. Is it about speed, accuracy, consistency, or something else entirely? Joey breaks down how different aspects of performance—such as efficiency, control, and decision-making—play a role in becoming a well-rounded shooter. He shares insights on setting goals, tracking improvement, and building a training routine that maximizes results without wasting time or effort.
If you’re looking for practical ways to improve your shooting without always relying on live fire, this episode is packed with valuable takeaways. Tune in now!

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.
