Police don't get to practice nearly enough. It's always a budget thing.
Until you look the elephant in the eye one never knows what or how they will do. What their reaction will be. This is true with police too.
That's why they focus on muscle memory and repetition and hope it carries the day when it happens for real.

Dad: Say something nice to your cousin Shirley
Dietrich: For a fat girl you sure don't sweat much.
Cue sound of Head slap.
