DA/SA to 1911 SAO

[Bakerjd]

I'm really kicking myself right now. I've shot a tanfo or CZ CO gun all year because the girlfriend was shooting CO and I didn't want to reload 2 different rounds. Had a good time with CO but I've had my open gun for a year now and want to shoot open. I was going to start this season but.... see above reason. Well she switched to open finally so now after the season is done I just started practicing with the open gun. Good lord the first session was horrific. The gun runs great, I however have seemed to have forgot how to use my trigger finger with a fine tuned 2011. I can get good splits on .18/.20 but every 5th or so transition I seem to freeze up on the second shot. Before this season all I shot was a 1911/2011 and dont recall having this issue. I didn't expect to now. Ahh well. I guess I have all winter to relearn this. 

 

What is a good way to break the habbit?

Train to relax your right hand in lots of dry fire

Go shoot a couple hundred rounds

Ditto to HCH but also maybe not focus so much on splits.

 

The more I "try" to shoot fast splits the worse it gets.

Definitely do not focus on splits.  Speed will come when you let your subconscious take over.  When you are constantly thinking about it you ARE slower.

Shot a couple local matches with the open gun. Splits are fine. Lol.
