Techniques vs. Tactics

Several students asked me this week "what is the difference between a technique and a tactic?".

Techniques are specific skills (front sight focus, trigger press, shooting on the move, pivots, moving as a team, etc).

Tactics is a term used to describe the combination of skills applied to a given set of circumstances.

What separates the good from the dead is their ability to think clearly enough under stress to consciously apply a correct set of skills to that specific set of circumstances.
