Shoot to wound?

The majority of people are used to firing at stationary targets under no duress at all, and are going to be danged lucky in a charged and dynamic SD situation to even hit their intended target, let alone being able to deliberately direct fire accurate enough to distinguish between wounding or killing.
I sometimes get a "shoot to wound" or the opposite "shoot between the eyes" student in a defense class, and we have a convincer drill for that.
With the loaded gun either holstered or lying on the bench, I start a silhouette target on the mover (bouncing and swaying) toward the shooter, and they are supposed to hit their selected area. Some empty the gun and hit nothing.
