Mike21STI Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I have a unique problem. In a few matches lately there have been stages where you were forced to shoot either strong hand or support hand. I seem to be more accurate (-0's in IDPA) when shooting strong handed or weak handed than when I shoot freestyle. I don't know whether my grip of my support hand is interfering with me putting pressure on the side of the frame or if I'm just concentrating more and seeing my sights better before engaging the targets with one hand on the gun. does anyone else experience this problem? I may have to just shoot one handed all the time to get my accuracy up. lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other side of what you said may be just it. You might be taking your freestyle shooting for granted. be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike21STI Posted October 22, 2010 Author Share Posted October 22, 2010 Thanks Brian, I'll go to the range and practice my freestyle shooting this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gather up the feeling that this your first time at the range, and you don't "know" anything at all. See and feel something new each time you shoot a string. be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I was taught the Target Style (bladed 1 handed) stance when I learned to shoot as a kid as preferred to shoot this way for the first half of my life. Learning the Isosceles my agency taught was tough and I still shoot better 1 handed even after 13 years of practicing 2 handed. I feel your pain brother.

Cosmik de Bris Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I have a unique problem. I don't think it is that unique, we were talking about this at our range after a weak-hand stage and quite a few people commented that their accuracy was better. Probably more care is taken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
