Training with your Pepper Spray

When the time comes, will you know how to use your pepper spray? While it is true that having pepper spray with you is better than not having it, knowing how to use it as well is much better. Let us look at two scenarios

Scenario one:

Imagine if someone is following you, and you feel the uneasy. You have pepper spray on your keys that are in your purse, and the assailant grabs you, and sexually assaults you.

Scenario two:

Imagine if someone is following you, and you feel the uneasy. You have pepper spray on your keys that are in your hands, and as the assailant approaches you, you fumble around trying to finger out how to use your pepper spray, but he grabs you, and sexually assaults you.

While you had pepper spray with you, it really didn’t do you any good now, did it?

Once you have purchased your pepper spray you should experiment and develop practice drills with your pepper spray. Just like in school when you practiced fire drills, you should practice getting to your pepper spray and using it. You should also practice where you carry your pepper spray, if you have it on your key ring; make sure you walk with the pepper spray in your hands. If you carry it clipped to your purse practice getting to it and bringing it to bear just like old west gun fighter. Please keep in mind that if your purse is snatched, you want to keep possession of the pepper spray. Therefore you always want to keep pepper spray close at hand while you are walking, riding a subway, or just standing. If a robber grabs your purse, your pepper spray will be in your and ready to let them have it.

Whenever you are on foot, whether it’s going to your car, leaving a restaurant or store, or out jogging – any time you are by yourself – always carry your pepper spray in your hands and ready you use No matter where you carry your pepper spray, on your key ring, clipped to your purse or on your belt. Know how to get to your pepper spray quickly.

Once actress Robin Curtis said that when she was little, she used to practice hiding in the dryer just in case someone broke into her house. You should think of imaginary situation and learn how to use and spray your pepper spray. You need to become proficient enough to use your pepper spray, quickly and effectively. This is one of the reasons that I suggest that you always purchase two of them, one to use and one to practice with..
