My .40 has a kind of sharp recoil and I discovered I was over compensating which caused my shots to be low left. A friend showed me this method and once I got the hang of it, I started deleting bullseyes from my targets.I find when a student shoots low left, the act of pinching the grip with the ring/pinky finger is happening. I always offer this lil option. As you wrap your left hand around your right {or visa versa depending on strong hand} push the pistol into the overlapping hand with your strong hand and pull slightly with the oustide hand. Ive found, more times than not this takes the pressure off the strong hand fingers while still having total control of your pistol.
Give that a try and lemme know if it works for you...
All the experts and wanna-be experts say that most self defense gunfights happen within 20 or so feet (7 yards).Dboyce12 said:What's a good distance to start out with?
