I had the opportunity to meet Steve at the state match...he had no idea who I was and I had no idea who he was until I put two and two together here on the forum.

He was truely a pleasure to meet and he went out of his way to be friendly to me. I really look forward to learning from his experience.

I will be sure to let all of the SO's know tha I am a new shooter....I am sure they wil be patient, everyone has to be new at one point or another. Take care.

A good friend reminded me a few weeks ago that "a slow hit beats a fast miss"

This is likely valuable advice. Thanks!

Perhaps twisting is not the best way to explain it. Your example about electricity makes a great deal of sense to me.

My gun tends to lean far to the right after a shot from my weak hand. I do not have this problem with my strong hand. Perhaps I need to get some hand workout tools I am going to look like one of those guys from the 80's with the little spring tool for hand strength!

Thanks for the pointers...I have been shooting my entire life at a target 7-25 yards away from me, just standing there shooting. With the exception of some limited training, this is really all I know....This Saturday will be my first IDPA shoot and I am both excited and nervous about it. I know that this will open alot of doors for me and let me know what I need to practice.

It will also expose me to the right people to teach me these lessons! I hope they can put up with all of the questions out at PSC! Take care.

Does this inward cant prevent some people's weapons from twisting in their hand?

When I shoot with my weak, or left hand.......the follow up shot is always SLOW because my gun tends to twist badly to the right in my hand.
