Bobby Lamar "Lucky" McDaniel (1925–1986) was an American marksmanship instructor, who taught what he called "instinct shooting" to bird hunters and law enforcement officers off and on from 1953 until 1982, using a Daisy lever-action BB gun without sights as his basic training aid.
He taught approximately 100,000 people how to shoot, including President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Henry Ford II, John Wayne, Audie Murphy, and key executives of the Remington and Winchester firearms companies.
[1] Beginning in the late 1970s, McDaniel taught combat shooting at Mitchell WerBell III's facility, "The Farm", located in Powder Springs, Georgia, where a number of Israelis, among others, were trained.
During his childhood, McDaniel honed his hand-eye coordination by spending his summers at his grandparents' farm in Middle Georgia in the 1930s, often hunting for dinner for the family with a .22 rifle and a .410 shotgun.
Secondly, he developed an effective training program of motor learning to teach the student's subconscious mind how to quickly solve all of the guidance-and-control problems involved, and how to use those solutions to direct the relevant muscles to point and fire the gun, so as to hit the target without conscious thought on the part of the shooter, except to select the target and initiate the process.
