I'm weak in transferring the pistol over for weak-hand-only shooting, so went to practice it last night in my dryfire session - only to realize that when I grab it from my holster with my normal full grip and then try to pass it off to my weak hand, it is very much NOT fluid. I stopped because I didn't want to practice it the wrong way. In matches, it feels like it takes forever to get it into my other hand. I often get a poor grip on the gun, which ends up getting too much finger on the trigger and/or I'm not fully depressing the grip safety, disengaging my trigger :/
The Power Factor Show mentioned three different techniques in one of their episodes, https://youtu.be/l_A26RIfi4o. 1) Grabbing it lower on the grip so there's room for your left hand when you transfer; 2) grabbing it from the slide; 3) grabbing it with normal grip out of the holster but then breaking your thumb/hand off the backstrap to be able to "wipe" the pistol into the left hand.....I'm thinking the last one is the best way, that NOT changing the way I grab my gun out of the holster is a good thing... and, oh ya - that would also be the same technique if I was transferring to my weak hand when it wasn't from the draw. So, I'm guessing that is the clear choice! lol
I was wondering what technique works the best for you when transferring your gun for weak hand only shooting from the draw?
And do you use the same technique for both WHO shooting from the draw and when transferring from shooting freestyle?
Thanks!
