Shot calling is most certainly not only a gamer skill. And shot calling is not mutually exclusive to “follow-through”. When you’re talking about martial application, what he is calling “follow through” is observation of the target until it is doing what you want it to do. I can call my shot, then still observe my target. Just because I call my shot doesn’t mean I move on to something else. I can call a perfect shot but that doesn’t mean the desired terminal effect was guaranteed.

Basically agree except To me the follow through is over when you are physically ready to fire another round after recoil has happened. After that point its more like target tracking and confirmation then follow through.... But I get where you are coming from

Shot calling is a life skill. Take a low contrast target (target with plaid t shirt taped over it) and have student A fire 5 shots quickly at 10 yards. Without the ability to call shots you’d be surprised how many people can’t do a high thoracic hit.

Follow through with a pistol(rifle is different) to me is when the sights return to target and you would be ready to fire again. Calling the shot to me is taking a mental picture of the sights as the shot breaks And being able to recall if your sights were properly aligned to your target. I agree they are different things.

My thoughts would be that shot calling is very important and will exist if you have strong fundamentals and put your skills against time. I would think that shot calling would be very important in a "real world" encounter but I'd say if you have time it would be best to check your work.

imo, shot calling can be used in self-defense. if you have multiple threats then you want to make sure that you put whatever number of rounds you think is enough on a threat before moving on to the next.

Well, shot calling....I'm starting to be able to do it but still have not the feeling always required to know when it's off. If it's an obvious pull or jerk I can usually tell but still need more "feel". Of course shot calling is good in all shooting. The better you are at developing the skills and feel to call a shot, the better shooter you will be. Not totally sure what follow thru is but I'm guessing it means what Nils told which simply finish the shot before you move on. Kinda like throwing a punch. Obviously you wait for contact (or hopefully contact) before moving on to the next punch. Otherwise, no power. Ok that's my thesis.....lol

I think shot calling is a gamer skill, but that's not a bad thing. Sure it's only anecdotal but every case of a gamer getting in a real gunfight that I'm aware of usually had the gamer crushing their opposition. In every .gov training class I ever had I was never taught shot-calling but I wasn't some Tier 1 dude either. When doing force on force, after becoming a gamer to the point of being able to call my shots on cardboard, the ability to call shots on a person that was shooting simunitions back at me was non-existent. I just couldn't see and process information that fast and the vast majority of my shots weren't even done through sites. Just my experience, but I'm not high-level gamer either.
