Description:

The Tueller Drill is a self-defense training exercise to prepare for a short-range knife attack when armed only with a holstered handgun.

A defender with a gun has a dilemma. If he shoots too early, he risks being accused of murder. If he waits until the attacker is definitely within striking range so there is no question about motives, he risks injury and even death. The Tueller experiments quantified a “danger zone” where an attacker presented a clear threat.

As an instructor, I personally believe the Tueller Drill to be one of the most important for people to learn. It is probably one of the most fun to do, but in my opinion, it can also be the most humbling experience in training. Not many people can do it, but you can master it with practice and patience. It’s really designed to show you how real life scenarios will go down.
