Is Dix using his middle finger on the trigger or am I missing something? He sure is... I don't know what the deal is with that!
Maybe Dix can explain it.

A year ago, I pulled the fingernail loose on one side of my nail just before I was shooting and I thought I would have to quit early. I found some bandages in my first aid kit and after experimenting for a while, I found out the cloth bandaids work pretty good on the trigger finger. The plastic ones work better for further protection in other areas like the web of a hand.
During the winter I use some Black "Tactical"[There's that word again]gloves and they work pretty good. Instead of being fingerless, they actually have an added pad for the trigger. I don't wear anything on my hands during the summer but I suppose I should when I start practicing again. I'm sure to beat my hands up since I don't have any calluses any more.
Hats are kind of important to keep other people's brass hitting around your face and head. It also protects if a piece of brass flies behind your glasses. That's happened to my son and I've seen it happen to others.

Since Im left handed the Glock felt kind of funny in my right hand, when I had to chamber a round. The pic was taken when I was just checking out the balance before I fired. Everybody knows I always pull the trigger with my big toe.
What an incredible day that was. Its going to be very hard to top this one. I was so give out last night I could hardly stir, but dont ever forget its true we should thank our lucky stars were in Texas. This day could not have happened anywhere but Texas.
The pic of Fannie Mae is legit too. Once we put those earphones on her she didnt even begin to flinch at the sound of the gunfire.
