That Shooting Show With Steve Anderson

Dedicated to Brother Micah Barcelo. What if we... What could we? Enjoy... SA

Steve announces the CR Speed dealership and praises the CR Speed Magpouch for its sheer awesomeness. Then, he discusses consistency of performance and how to achieve it... Enjoy!

Today we prove a number of things to be true: 1. If you send Steve enough enough email, he will put you on the show. 2. Steve can play the easy parts of "Eruption" on an acoustic guitar. 3. It is possible to improvise a blues jam about an indoor IDPA match. And much, much, more! Enjoy!

It's a beautiful day in Columbus, Ohio, and Steve has a gripping tale of how new grip tape caused him to learn something. Again. Then, we get zen and Steve coins a new mantra. (Is that even possible? To coin a mantra?) As usual, we don't care what's possible around here. We just do it anyway. Enjoy!

Steve talks about the origin of the phrase on the new AndersonShooting T-shirts, then does a little reader mail about the results of the last dry fire tune-ups... Then, he poses a question: In the midst of winter and ammo shortages, isn't this a great time to get serious about dry fire? :)

Steve digs in deep with a beautiful quote that was passed along from listener David B. "The ultimate level is where technique disappears and the ego merely watches things unfold." Then he attempts to scat sing that over Van Halen's "Bottoms up." Oopsy.

Steve drives back from Virginia in the world's scariest sled, then talks about: 1. The VA class, classifier skills, speed and accuracy. 2. Why it took 8 good shooters an hour to fire two accurate shots. (It has nothing to do with skill.) 3. Some easy ways to get really, really good over the winter and during the ammo shortage crisis! And much more! Enjoy!

Today we are live in the home of Lee Wills who bashfully talks a little bit about a little bit...

Today is a very rare, almost unheard of 2nd take of that shooting show. Steve blames Micah Barcelo and Sammy Hagar for this, and you'll agree when you find out why... Also, we talk about Mandi's new gun and then she refuses to take Steve's call. Ouch. Throw in a mini gun control rant and a brief point shooting discussion and that'll do it! Enjoy.

Today Steve takes on the most frequently asked question of his dry fire instructional career ever, and answers it with a coffee drinking drill. Further, we find out why you don't want the incredible hulk changing the oil in your motorcycle OR shooting your classifiers for you. Enjoy!

On today's episode, Steve interviews former stalker Erich L. about a recent accomplishment, and determines several things to be facts: a. IDPA needs an Open Division. b. Everyone Needs a Caspian Open Gun, especially Erich's wife. c. If you set a practice schedule and stick to it, you will see amazing results. d. Top Gear is the second greatest program EVER. Enjoy.

Steve talks about his partial team's trip to the range yesterday including: a. How to increase trigger speed for most shooters b. The cause of trigger freeze c. Predictable sight or dot lift and return d. Why trigger speed isn't the most important thing anyway... Then we wrap it up with a nice letter from Mark W. about the 2nd amendment conversion of a hippie professor! There may be hope.

Today, Steve tries desperately to avoid talking about politics because it makes him so mad, then realizes he's getting mad because he's talking about politics. Yikes! Thank goodness that a topic from the great BrianEnos.com shooting forums comes along to save the day, at least until Steve compares the conscious mind to half-drunk buddy with a stolen car. You have been warned.

Steve gets serious and ponders whether this latest push for gun control represents liberalism's last stand, or possibly a final push towards...

Steve sings about his dry fire swinger in the inro, and that's unfortunate. Sorry. Things do get more serious as he discusses the importance of conquering your shooting fears instead of letting them become a self-fulfilling prohecy of failure. Have a great day!

Steve ponders how many Van Halen songs there are that can be used for intro music before they start to be repeated... decides he doesn't care! (We'll probably get sued before too many get repeated!) Then, a brief update on nicotine withdrawal and sleep deprivation goodness, and finally: a. Some news on the new book b. What is a "limiting factor" in your shooting and what should be done about it. c. Barking dogs and expensive pickups: Listening at your own risk. Have a great day!!!!!

Today we get Hyder back on and discuss, bullet weights, comps, powders and come to the inevitable conclusion that Steve is always right! Who knew? Also discussed: the gap betwen live fire and dry fire, and whether taking a break is good for you! Enjoy.

Steve answers some listener questions about steel vs. paper, goes on a very mini-rant about mini targets again, and complains about his Dobermans squeezing him out of bed like, uh, toothpaste? What exactly did you expect? :)

Is there a coherent shooting analogy contained within Van Halen, Shoes, and Cockroaches? Steve thinks so. Also covered in this brief episode are: a. The words you must never say at the Circleville Range b. The BEST gun for Dry Fire c. The True Effect of Regular Training on a positive self-image Look for Part 2 of the Andrew Hyder hour soon...

Steve gets a late start, blames Andrew Hyder, and then discusses: a. CZs, Spiders and Hornets b. Bullet Weight and Powder Choice c. Glocks, Recoil, and Grip Tape d. The Coalition to remove assault weapons? Good Grief!

Today we spend an hour with the great Andrew Hyder and talk about about his favorite topic. How many springs can he name in 10 seconds? All of them.

Today Steve wraps up a topic from yesterday, namely stage breakdown and planning. Then we get a text from the great Andrew Hyder, and you know what that means!

As advertised, Steve lets the listeners pick the topics and calls a very surpried Bill Seevers for assistance! We cover: Stage Breakdown Frustration in Training .22 Practice The Dry Fire Live Fire Gap And the super secret workout! And of course, Steve gets mesmerized by van Halen...

Today gets you not one but TWO Van Halen songs, a more detailed description of what you get in the live fire class (which you can take for FREE if you organize it) and Steve basks in the validation of shot calling after a Brian Enos blessing. Then, Clay K from VA texts in and gets put on the air. You wanna be on, lemme know or just text me early in the morning.

Steve has either: a. Died and gone to heaven b. Been selected for a reality TV show without his knowledge c. Been kidnapped by people even crazier than he is I guess we'll find out soon enough...we'll also find out why: a. Micah Barcelo is not allowed to choose intro music b. why you should possibly throw your FO front sight into the nearest body of water. Thanks!

Steve rambles through more side effects of quitting smoking, visits the fabulous brianenos.com shooting forums for the first time in awhile and stumbles across a question that is tailor made for him: Why Dry Fire?

Steve had a dry fire tune-up at the Woodlands Dojo, and the shooter was already so good that we were worried we couldn't help him! Turns out, our shooter is simply a little too smart for for his own good sometimes... And if anybody can make something a little less too smart, it's our humble host Steve Anderson!

Steve share a very Zen moment during yesterday's smokeless dry firing and tries desperately to get you to understand it. But first, unapologetic Van halen lyric analysis turned into life advice. Finally, the joy of tiny movements is examined. Look out!

This is Christmas day, also known as Steve's second day of non-smoking. He's feeling much better, and a hilarious James Brown Christmas song causes him to get a little silly. It's amazing what clean air can do to a juvenile mind. Look out. then, we announce the official start of the third book and make fun of Christmas Singing and two old ladies with broken legs. (We make fun of them kindly, gently, and affectionately, at least) Merry Christmas Gang! Hug those little ones for me!

Steve quits smoking, takes guns to the airport, United calls the cops and TSA over 17 rds of .38 Special ammo. Merry Christmas!

Steve gets his craziest idea yet, and has a challenge for you.

Steve is in rare form today. We have cooking advice, relationship advice, a tip on how to use motorcycles and school busses to make a 2nd amendment statement, and the results of our very first video analysis. Oh, there's also a new sidebar theme song for a CCW discussion. Yowza!!!!!

Steve calms down from yesterday and wants to know: Why are you in the sport? What do you want to get out of it? What are you willing to commit to it in terms of time, budget, and priorities? Then we discuss the importance of good goal setting in that environment. And of course, there's a detour or two. :)

Warning: Steve is Pissed Off today, at Fools.

Steve sits down with his friend and teammate Bill Seevers, and they talk about EVERYTHING, including USPSA in the 80's vs. Today, and what Steve needs to do to become a better shooter.

Steve revisits Bob Schneider vs. Halen, give out a fabulous recipe for a bachelor pantry casserole, and gets a text message from a semi-nude yogist. Yoga-ist? Yogurt? Then we talk about a complete lack of emotion and end up confronting evil.

On today's show, Steve revisits his interview with Lanny Bassham and takes another look at the exact same goal with a fresh perspective. His real goal is to get Micah Barcelo to spill his coffee laughing...Be careful Micah!

Steve goes deep today on the real relationship between dry fire and live fire, and how to REALLY use dry fire to PUSH your shooting into new puddles of awesomesauce. Also defined: El Camino, Mandates, and why Culture Club has nothing to do with Van Halen.

Today we cleanse the palette with Panama, then Steve talks about the importance of practicing when you don't want to, especially after eating a banana. So set a practice schedule, stick to it, eat a banana and enjoy this episode of that shooting show.

Steve apologizes profusely for missing yesterday's show, takes a listener question, and sings along with the angels! If you want a taste of the upcoming music project, you can hear Steve's band's greatest hits of the 90s by clicking on "the music" on the home page of andersonshooting.com.

Steve breaks his surrender draw down (again) and beats it into submission very slowly and perfectly, then forgets all about it. Next, he gets suckered into ANOTHER debate about speed vs accuracy and maintains AGAIN that YOU DON'T HAVE TO CHOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! Also, Steve mentions the new products and brand shootin' new webstore are coming very soon to AndersonShooting.com possibly as early as later today! (Many thanks to Mr. Elliott) To help say goodbye the old Paypal Site, we'll throw in a FREE CR SPEED lanyard with every order until the new store goes up...So tell Santa to get those Christmas orders in today!

Guys, I had a fantastic day yesterday, and may have avoided divorce court altogether... at least we're headed in the right direction. Then, we talk about why every muscle hurts, and finally a very special announcement regarding the first official sponsor of TeamAndersonShooting: CR SPEED! Thanks Taz, we'll make ya proud, I promise!

Steve goes go to divorce court and Brandon gets attacked by a consciously mindful Doberman Pinscher analogy. But first, a listener has questions about international travelling and trigger jobs! Send your questions to [email protected] and he will read them!

Today's episode of That Shooting Show features a very special guest. If you can spare an hour, you will hear two GMs talk about getting the G and being a G. Also featured are the words "Uranus" and "Unitard." It's a little long, but worth every minute if you value honesty and commitment. (that'swhatshesaid?) Sit back, relax, and enjoy an hour conversation between yours truly and the Great and oh-so Fabulous Micah Barcelo.

Steve talks about the weather again and advocates playing in puddles. Then, we get into why you SHOULD pull the trigger as fast as possible in dry fire, this time with PROOF!

Steve cycles from feeling Bob Schneider to feeling Van Halen and answers a question from South Africa! If you have a question you'd like answered on That Shooting Show, email it to [email protected] WARNING: Steve is NOT qualified to give relationship advice, but that won't stop him from trying. :)

Steve talks about why a properly prepared brain cannot fart, and why you aren't ready to shoot. Email Steve for a free stage analysis tool: [email protected]

Steve discusses weather (ha) you should take the winter off, risks offending the women's lib crowd very politely, and tries to keep his dogs quiet for a very short podcast episode.

El Steve-o discusses a useless emotion, tells you why you get beat by 2-3 seconds on every field course... and then proposes a solution! Also, we dissect a Van Halen song for Mike Elliott!

Today we talk about SPEED MODE, pants, hand grenades and heading back to Texas for more classes!
