this is obviously longer / higher round count than many of you will be able to do regularly, but this should provide a good idea of what skill development to and at a high level looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5A_nlIZLyFw
works with carbine too
Billy Barton -- https://www.youtube.com/shorts/k5h3b-1C8OA -- does 250 round days all the time and is obviously a wizard
getting good isn't hard, dryfire daily for 15 minutes, 250 round range day every week if you can, every month at minimum, and you can get very good in a relatively short period of time
if there's any interest, I'll poast more good videos / resources for this

that really sucks. surprised you don't have any closer.
shitty situation, but you can at least dryfire. your recoil control and splits won't get better from that, but your draw and transition times can get great.

There was one about 10 mins away that succumbed to an aging owner, Covid closures, and skyrocketing land value that led ‘ole man Henry to sell the business to a townhouse developer and decamp to Arizona for retirement.
Since then I’ve been coasting on a lifetime of practice at a perishable skill. The last time I went to the range I found myself having to slow down and think about formerly reflexive actions like the safety on my 2011. Which is a shitty place to be in with a gun I carry somewhat regularly.
Someone looked into starting up a new business here but I think it fell apart over insurance

all of that is retainable with relatively small amounts of dryfire practice. My bill drill from concealment went from like a 2.8 to a 1.8-1.7 at 7y with 3 months of dryfire where I went to the range twice. the gun handling skills like draw, safety manipulation, fast presentation, sight acquisition, etc. are especially easy to improve this way -- do 100 draws where you consciously focus on doing everything perfectly, and then do 10 drill with an easy par time and 10 with a challenging one. you'll be astonished how much you improve over 30 minutes.
go to the range once a month as able, do a relatively high round count session where you really focus on grip, recoil control, vision (target focus), and long strings of fire (or several strings of doubles). as long as you're keeping the grip improvements during your dryfire, you'll keep getting better.

it's easy to fit in 15-20 minutes of dryfire daily. Spend half of that on your draw from concealment, alternate spending the rest on transitions, and trigger control at speed -- see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=342zb7az2JA. make sure you are using the same grip pressures you would use shooting a fast string so you don't practice bad recoil control.
use a shot timer, get some scaled down targets -- https://benstoegerproshop.com/dry-fire-targets-in-reduced-scale-uspsa-style/ -- and set up a dryfire area in your garage or another unused room.
super easy way to fit it in, it adds up, and you build a lot of skill fast this way.
Then go to the range to work on strings of fire and recoil control, which you can't simulate at home. Most of your issues will be grip-related for awhile (and maybe forever -- in the video I linked in the OP, a very good GM diagnoses most of the errors he's making as grip-centric)
.
as far as motivation, if you couldn't wax 3 niggers trying to mug you from concealment, when they all get to draw first, you gotta keep working. Blake drill is great for transitions.

not that I know of, but I can't really tell you definitively without trying some stuff in practice
If you can push the holster off the gun with your thumb, you could just fire from pocket at close ranges, which is faster than any draw I've ever seen. You'd just have to practice doing it and not missing lol.
I'm certain there's a viable way to do it, you'd just have to maybe play with different holsters and see what works best.

lmao this has to be more bait, you can't possibly be this retarded, but for any other readers:
-- Hunter is a GM in carry optics, meaning he's very good in a division where you specifically aren't able to use race guns, and in fact what he's using in the video is an M&P 2.0 lol
-- he competes from concealment all the time, it's one of his schticks because he sells a concealed carry belt
-- you can get very good from concealment -- https://www.youtube.com/shorts/k5h3b-1C8OA -- and you can obviously practice drawing from concealment; once the gun is out, it's all the same.
I know I bite on your bait most of the time but you can't be this on the nose with it

missing the point -- doing drills to refine specific skills and diagnosing errors is how you improve, and many shooters don't get what that looks like.
shooting doubles is how you get better at fixing grip errors, you don't have to be shooting .18 splits in order to benefit.
or you could "slow down and get your hits" and be a C class shooter (or worse) forever, doesn't matter much to me, but a 3 second draw probably isn't gonna save your life against a mugger
