Matt Hauff spent 20 years in the Marine Corps, most of it in special operations, and he has trained shooters all over the world. His take: most people train the wrong way, and they pour almost all their time into the smallest piece of the fight. Marksmanship matters, but it is only about 10% of it.

In this interview:

-The four types of training, and why most people only do one
-Live fire vs simulator vs force-on-force: what each is actually for
-Why an indoor range builds confidence but cannot build real performance--The "garage band to rock star" analogy for how special operations training scales
-His one piece of advice: stay diverse, because skills are perishable
