Waiting for Swingers

[mcoliver]

I noticed that after I've shot a swinger and feeling the need to shoot it again I tend to pull the gun back & fiddle with my grip while waiting for it to show-up or be in a position where I want to shoot it.

mcoliver,

I'd guess that you weren't in the best position to start with?

I can't play tennis worth a crap, but a buddy gave me some good advice once.  I think it applies to practical shooting as well.  He said to always try to get in position before the ball gets there so that you can hit the ball the same everytime.  Get to the position, get setup, then execute the shot.

Obviously, in tennis or shooting, we won't be able to get into the perfect position every single time.  But, if we are often out of our best position, then something is wrong (rushing to catch the swinger for example).  We need to address that.

Well, stop doing that.
