Jim Norman Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Your bullets go where the gun is pointed. If you are missing, it means you are not pointing the gun at the target at the instant you fire the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanc Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Trigger control is more important than sight alignment. I think the context when I heard that(was miculek) was that new an intermediates are told over and over about the sights and not really about trigger pull.

Dranoel Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 If you are watching your front sight rise from the first target, you are already late getting on the second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HRider Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Some of the best advice that I received when I started shooting action pistol was " Shooting is just like driving, there are speed limit signs, stop signs, caution lights, etc. You have to learn to recognize them and pay attention to them". It has worked out fairly well for me. Hurley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
