Hey, Mike... When you're aiming down the sight do you wink one eye closed? I do, but I haven't seen comp shooters do this.

[kickedintheballs2000]

No as a competition speed shooter closing one eye will simply slow you way down. I shoot more of a Combat & tactical style using both eyes open and staying low and trying to keep the weight of my body spread out.

Shooters like Bulleye Shooters shoot way different , like closing one eye, standing tall and controlling breathing is key to these shooters.

Okay... well, that had to be weird when you first started shooting, right? I mean, isn't the natural inclination to shoot with one eye closed? How'd you work out shooting "tactically"? Was this skill accomplished simply through "practice, practice, practice"???

Thanks for the awesome vid, dude. Rock on, man!

[kickedintheballs2000]

At first yes it was a little weird but I kind of have a nack for shooting handgun now and within a week or 2 and had it down pretty well. Shooting fast and tactically is mostly about like you said Practice ,Practice ,Practice.

I've always found shooting rifle & shotgun pretty easy but switching over to pistols was a somewhat larger learning curve but given time you'll get it down. A 22 conversion kit for your handgun is a really good thing to have right now due to ammo.

Nice tutorial..

Only thing I missed was at the part of the draw, that maybe you should've added that the way you draw also depends on the type of holster you are wearing. f.e. my draw while wearing a Fobus holster is different then when I'm wearing one from safariland. Very important as each type of holster has a different retention level and safeguard.

otherwise a very useful tutorial for the newbies and advanced shooters in one !

[kickedintheballs2000]

Yes you are very right many types of retention holsters will be much slowwer then others without retention but I did make this clip for another competition shooter and in competition 99% of shooters have little to no form of retention but you made a very good point.

You can dryfire a glock without a snapcap.

After 2000 rounds shot, I still find myself a lousy shooter thorn between bullseye and IPSC shooting. I'll have to practice wtihout closing an eye. Thanks for the tutorial!
