Early on I use to scoop. Worked great in practice but at matches I learned that the scoop and adrenaline were a disaster waiting to happen. After almost dropping the gun a few times I abandonded this methood.

 

So I  set my wrist and my thought is to just rotate my arm at my right elbow down to gun and grasp gun.

 getting on the trigger a lot sooner than they thought.

 

50 years ago, there were "fast draw artists" who fired a wax "bullet" out of a SAA .45 at balloons

(Thell Reed, et. al) .

 

Remarkably fast draws ...

 

Even with the wax bullets, and no powder, most of them had some type of "deflector" in case the

gun went off a little too soon ...   and those holsters were pointing forward of the leg anyway.

 

Took a two day course with a GM few years ago, and he felt that a consistent 1.25 second draw 

is fast enough - very little advantage over an entire field course to reducing that and become

"inconsistent".    :)

In that case, now, I just need to speed up everything else :) .
