You are doing self defense wrong!

Most defensive shooters out there are doing it wrong.  By definition.  If you are a defensive shooter, it means that you are specialized in a very specific area of defense.  Shooting might be the most fun area to specialize in.  It might be the sexiest.  When you need shooting it certainly is important.  

Most folks never need the gun.

Instead they need avoidance skills.  They need unarmed skills.  The need medical skills.

Yet very few take that seriously.

Medical Skills:  More important than defensive firearm skills.

It is true.  Medical skills are more likely to be used in a much wider set of circumstances than defensive handgun skills.

As a professional defensive firearms instructor, I have never had to fire my gun in self defense, yet there are 4 times where I have used medical skills to impact another person’s life in a significantly positive manner.

It is probably the same with you.

Even if you do find yourself involved in violence, serious injury is a common consequence of violence.  So it only makes sense that you would want to have medical skills to help deal with the consequences of violence once you do what needs to be done.

So do something about it.
