Range report 1-17 & 1-18

That's very kind of you, but how come I can't shoot with 2 hands???? Lol.
Buy another Sig and then you can shoot with both hands. :D
 
It's in your mind. If you can shoot like that with one hand you can shoot the same or better with two. Keep at it!
Oh, my trainer isn't going to let me stop! He's a very determined young man. He constantly tells me to quit thinking so much and shoot the gun...lol. I can see that I'm making progress each lesson, and I'm having a ball!
 
You never mentioned th distance in the picture post. Let’s hear it.
I just put it out to how far I think it was at the last lesson, the marks are pale and I can't read them, so I'd guess 10 to 15 feet? Certainly not over 15 feet. We're not going for distance just yet. We're looking for accuracy and the proper grip and trigger finger placement.
(I know you guys like to get big distance, but I'm not that advanced yet. Sorry I don't have any excitement for you there! Lol.)
 
You're not breathing through your eyelids.
Wow, this and a left-handed gun! These might be things to tell my trainer about next week! I'm sure he'll start my eyelid training and find me the proper gun right away! LOL. Thanks, guys!
 
It seems fairly obvious that if you shoot better one handed then your offhand grip is negatively influencing your shooting. Now the hard part is figuring out if it is placement, grip strength or maybe even if it influences where you place your strong hand.

Ok, I'll have to watch out for that, thanks. Just another thing to check out...lol. This never seems to get simpler.

You know, she is a woman. There's a high probability that the cell phone in the support hand is interfering with her grip.


:D

LOL.

Yeah, but I'm old, and we didn't grow up with them, so mine isn't glued to my hand like the kids have theirs! But it would have been a good excuse.....

Nothing wrong with getting the technique right at close distance and later adding that variable. Here's a suggestion for both of you and your cheerleading coach; I should warn you that it will require tactical operator operating an operation gear that will be extremely expensive:
  1. Sharpie
  2. A quarter coin
  3. Paper. I use empty past boxes.
Draw a few circles on the paper by circling the quarter with the sharpie. Then put it at 15ft from you. Then try to put 3 rounds inside each circle, as in pick a circle and work on it.

You may find out that your grouping will actually get smaller; I was told that is because your brain now only sees a small target and will adjust following the "aim small shoot small" line of thought. Or something like that.

I actually have some targets printed out with circles on them....maybe not quarter size but maybe silver dollar size....Might try them Thursday! Excellent idea. (And love the "operator" stuff....)
I need a sharpie for if I ever do find the magic spot on my trigger finger that makes me hit the targets better.
And...cheerleading coach? Lol.
 
Yeah, it’s gotta be the grip. :rolleyes:

I believe it is "aim small, miss small".
