Trigger Time...

Post by Old Ironsights »

I've had this so long, I don't even remember when I made it... 1988 or so when I was shooting IPSC?Image

One of the best ways to practice trigger control/sight picture.

Gun, Pencil, Paper, Backstop at arm's length, an inch or so from the pencil tip (be consistent). Small dot on paper as POA.

Good trigger control = little deviation from POA/POI. Shotgun pattern of pencil dots = POA/Trigger issues...

You must have started IPSC about the time I quit. Latest trophy date I have, (I think) is 1982. It was great fun but I went back to OSU which took all my spare time. Just shoot cowboy now.
