    Best fix for anticipating recoil?

    in Handgun Techniques

    Posted

    my dry firing dropped off the last week or so, but I spent enough time to feel like I was seeing the front sight and getting a better trigger press

    so, I went to the range yesterday. I would say my groups were 20% smaller, but still had a flinch about 1/10 shots. and I recognized it as a flinch for sure. I was anticipating the shot, and pushing (and sometimes blinking) as I jerked the trigger. most of the time it was the first shot I fired. just so frustrating.

    and as I'm flinching, I find myself instinctively looking over the front sight to see where the shot landed. ugh.

    I might just go back to shooting .22 exclusively until I get over this.

    p,s. and this was outdoors, with plugs and muffs

    I'm looking for a couple of basic, benchmark drills

    Something that I could use at the range to sort of measure my progress

    Maybe one that includes a draw, reload, multiple targets, etc.

    And if I could find times to compare to, that would be awesome. Like x.xx would be comparable to an A shooter, etc. That's the part I'm having trouble with, I can find drills online, but no times to compare myself to.

    Suggestions?

    What would be a good first holster?

    You don't say what gun. I've always been happy with Blackhawk Serpa holsters and twin mag pouches. They are quite inexpensive, very functional, and easy on the finish of your gun.

    http://www.blackhawk.com/Products/Product-Promos/Serpa-Holsters/SERPA%C2%AE-Sportster%C2%AE-Holster.aspx this one is about $25 in stores.

    I have a few pistols; M&P, Glock and a CZ

    Mostly, I'm just looking for something to practice with. Although, it'd be nice to be able to use it in IDPA or USPSA if I ever decide to shoot a match. And it looks like a couple of different models are convertible. So, Blade-Tech and Comp-Tac are the two most popular brands?

    I don't know if I'll ever shoot in actual competition, but I would like something to do the dry fire drills with. So, a holster and couple of mag pouches. And it'd be nice if I could use it if I ever decided to do a match.

    I don't want to spend money unnecessarily, but it doesn't need to be something cheap either.
