I’m curious..... do you alaready have a good sight picture when that happens?

I can’t provide a hard source for this, but I remember hearing somewhere that it isn’t uncommon for an officer who is shooting under duress to put his first shot into the ground hear the perp’s feet because he pulls the trigger while raising the gun from the low-ready, before he has a sight picture. That may be pure hoakum, or maybe it used to be true but that modern training techniques have eliminated the problem. I would expect that pushing the gun out from a “Sul” position instead of raising it from the low-ready might help to mitigate shots into the ground, but I don’t know if it would raise shots that are low in the center of mass.
Normal shooting where I shoot from low ready and giving myself enough time to get a good sight picture it's pretty accurate. I'm thinking maybe because i'm trying to put myself under pressure and drawing from a holster, I'm anticipating the recoil before i shoot. Something I need to work on for sure.

I know a lot of ranges dont allow "headshots" and a few of them allow you to do head shots but only if you turn the target upside down. (kinda stupid in my opinion) but to each their own.
The ranges that don't allow "head shots", or flip the target upside down, do that to keep people from shooting the target carriers.
ah. i guess that makes sense.
