A couple of tricks I learned while on a shooting team in the Navy. First, keep your little finger off of the weapon. When firing, your little finger will pull the gun down. Relax your thumb and only use enough pressure to help stabilize the weapon. The thumb will rotate the weapon but without the little finger, it won’t impact you very much. When I used these methods, my shooting scores climbed dramatically. Depending on what you are shooting at, try firing three shots, one right after the other. This is similar to the big guns firing for effect. Basically, the brain takes over and the third shot should hit its target. This goes for hand guns and rifles.
Also, try and throw a pop can about 10-15 feet away from you. Then turn your back to it. Turn and fire without using the sites. If using a rifle, bring the butt up to the shoulder but don’t use the sites. If using a hand gun, bring the weapon up about half way and fire at the can, without using the sites. Again, your brain will eventually take over and you’ll find yourself hitting the can. Don’t do this with high powered weapons at first. With a rifle, try starting with a BB gun or 22 at first.
There’s an old quick draw saying about hand guns.....”If you need sites, go to a rifle.”
Just some opinions that worked for me, but there’s nothing like practice, practice, practice.
Good stuff.
