    HatPoint Target Stands

    In this week’s episode we talk with John Schwend from HatPoint Target stands. The MantisX Titan is the definitive force multiplier for instructors who demand data-driven results and unshakeable fundamentals. Designed to bridge the gap between static range drills and high-stress performance, the Titan offers real-time, surgical-grade analysis of every movement—from the initial draw to the break of the shot. By capturing thousands of data points per second, it identifies the subtle neurological and mechanical hitches that even the most eagle-eyed instructor might miss. This allows you to move beyond “watch and correct” to a sophisticated, diagnostic approach that provides students with objective, visual proof of their progress, drastically shortening the learning curve. Elevate your curriculum by integrating a tool that speaks the language of modern marksmanship: precision and efficiency. The Titan’s robust suite of drills—covering everything from holster draw analysis to recoil management—enables you to run high-volume, low-cost training sessions that maintain an elite level of intensity. Whether you are refining the grip of a novice or pushing a professional to shave milliseconds off their split times, the Titan provides the empirical evidence needed to validate your coaching. It isn’t just an accessory; it’s a digital range safety officer and master coach rolled into one, ensuring your students leave the line more capable, more confident, and more consistent. Who is someone you would like to meet either dead or alive and why?
