1. A system, comprising:
a) a controller, comprising:
i) one or more position sensors wherein said one or more position sensors convey a position of said controller relative to a user in 3-dimensional space, wherein said one or more position sensors is worn by said user, wherein said one or more position sensors worn by said user monitors hand position and finger movement, wherein said one or more position sensors worn by said user provides tactile, vibratory, gyroscopic resistance, and firearm recoil feedback; and
ii) a base having a shape of a firearm;
b) a viewer comprising at least one visual interface; and
c) a processor connected to said controller and said viewer, and software operatively connected to said processor comprising instructions that when executed by said processor cause said processor to display:
i) a target;
ii) a simulated landscape through which a simulated shot travels to reach said target; and
iii) a simulated projectile flight path projected onto said simulated landscape between a position of a shooter and said target on said at least one visual interface wherein said projectile flight path is modified to display the influence of individual variables alone and in combination on said projectile flight path.
