MARCH organizes trauma priorities: Massive bleeding, Airway, Respiration, Circulation, and Hypothermia. Common mistakes include delaying bleeding control, inaccessible equipment, poor wound packing, skipping airway assessment, missing chest injuries, failing to reassess, overlooking hidden blood loss, and underestimating hypothermia. Act promptly, use trained techniques, keep equipment accessible, reassess continuously, and prevent heat loss.

Technical skill is the foundation of performance, but it is not enough to succeed in competition. Under pressure, stress affects the brain, perception, concentration, and fine motor control. An excessive stress response can disrupt precise movements. Successful shooters learn to regulate stress through tactical breathing, stress inoculation, and process focus, allowing them to access their full abilities even in demanding situations.
