 First shot on target is perhaps the most important skill in a gunfight. We use shot timers to measure our performance, but the reality is the shot timer only tells half the story. 

We need to account for the human reactionary time gap that is present for all of us just to simply perceive a threat and take action aka OODA loop (observe, orient, decide, act). On average this is 1.8 seconds for humans. 

Your actual draw time is more accurately reflected when you add 1.8 seconds to it. If your draw is 1 second, in reality it’s 2.8 seconds. Why is this important Scott? Thanks for asking. From historical data we know armed confrontations are typically over within 3 seconds. 

What is the take away? Get training and start practicing.
