Got a baby book around here somewhere that tells me the average baby walks at 12 months of age. I gave birth to five children and ... oddly ... not a single one of them walked at 12 months of age. One walked at 8 1/2 months, one at 10 months, one at 11 months, one at 13 months, and one did not walk until 17 months old.
What's all that got to do with shooting? Real simple. So what!!? if the "average" gun fight happens at X number of yards? It doesn't matter what the "average" is ... it only matters what your particular fight will be. And you don't really have any way to know what your fight will be.
I practice at distances ranging from arm's length out to 50 yards, occasionally 100 yards. The majority of my shooting happens at 5 to 15 yards, usually 7 to 10. But I stay well-practiced at the other distances too.
