Well, my class was cancelled this morning.... rain early, snow by 10:00 am... not good training weather the way they put it.

I went out and tried a tighter grip and relaxing my arms more.... these are the targets from L to R sitting on my couch when I was done. I woudl have got a video but neither of my parents were willing to come out and video me in 2-3" of snow.

I caught myself doing something weird too... I would let my left eye slip open the longer I went. I got okay by the one on the far right....

Wal Mat here finally came into some ammo... so I'm stocked up.

I took the Torino out for pictures too... we haven't had good wet snow like this since the day Barack Obama became President of the United States in 2009.



Here are some other shots I took... (haha, shots)

Like I said Duane....

Itll take a few rounds to get use to that style grip.....

Were you standing sideways? or faceing forward again?

The far right target looks like your starting to comeinto your own....

Unlike a rifle..../ closeing 1 eye useing a scope
Actually you should be shooting with both eyes open when useing a hand gun...
Maybe thats explains most of your hits are more right sided?

Checkout the replacement...(found a diffrent angle description)

It shows more the angle and profile in the stance...
Check it out... I prefer this second video stance ( I switched them)

I'll see what else I can find...
