Are we target shooting or combat shooting - cause they are not related.

“Surprise break”? No. In combat shooting you are not waiting for a surprise break. You are, gasp, jerking the trigger. The most important skill in combat shooting is to be able to consistently ‘jerk’ the trigger without moving the point of aim. Everything else follows that.

instinct shooting with a bow I’m great at- (not ‘shoot a flying bird out of the air great- but 60 yard or so target shooting good or at least i used to be- could not get used to sights of any kind- always resorted back to instinctive shooting- We would ‘nock’ each other’s arrows (hit the other person’s nocks off at about 30 yards or so not every time- but enough that stopped shooting one after the other lol)- got pretty expensive when we practiced lol)

instinct with a pistol? Nope- no good for me- sight shooting also not good with pistol- dunno what it is about a pistol with me- I suppose if i trained more instinct shooting i might eventually get hang of it- like with the bow- but with hte bow i got hangof it very quickly- not so with pistol
