Re: Front Sight Focus---Or Not...

I just got back from the range. My last two mags were shot using double taps. Target was out about 4.5 yards and was a standard 12 x 18 size target. Inside range, so I can't holster draw, using my hammer fired DA/SA 9mm with no safety and hammer down, low ready and eyes either closed or looking down before I start. I quickly bring up my firearm and fire. Usually round 1 is center low and 2nd round is high right (I'm a lefty). I make sure and practice this at least once every range trip. Point and shoot.. I couldn't tell you what site I am looking through or even the color of the sight.. What I can tell you is that using a natural eyes down the barrel and pointing I can consistently put two relative kills shots on target... Practice, practice, practice.... I usually don't go for the 25 yard bulleye type of shots. I try to spend the majority of my range time practicing what I feel is going to be the most likely type of self defense scenario. Don't get me wrong.. I also spend a lot of time with my targets out around 7 - 10 yards trying to make one big hole in the center using a lot of small holes...

I guess what I am saying, is like someone here said before, quit trying to learn from youtube and get to the range as often as you can. Develop those muscle memory skills and practice over and over....
