    Man let me just tell you, I have been looking all day for a video that is perfect to send to my mother. I’m talking everyone with a million subscribers and 100k likes. All 30 minute videos. They all skip the basics. Yet say the video is about basics. After almost a full day of looking, Bam a 7 year old video that’s only 5 minutes and hits on exactly everything it needs to. You deserve more subscribers man.

So with that said, the Weaver Stance actually does help out alot with managing the gun's recoil while having the tight grip.

    I’m relatively new to shooting but have been practicing a lot…and the push-pull tip was a game changer. Game changer!! 100x better today. 10 shts within 8 inches from 10 yards. That’s not gonna win any awards but before this tip my guy on the target looked like he had the measles when I was done.

    This video helped me in so many ways as a novice shooter. Especially when you wrap your other hand completely around the hand that is on the pistol. That helped stabilize the gun so much and I was definitely struggling to hit the target and it’s definitely because I was not having my finger on the trigger like you explained it correctly. It was always heading to the right. You’ve help me nail down some key elements here. Thank you so much.

  • @82luft49

    Excellent video, BroomStick Tactical. One of the better handgun accuracy demonstrations on CZcams. So in other words, the only sight picture I should see while lined up on the center of the target is a fuzzy rear sight, a fuzzy bull's eye, but a clear front sight which I haven't been doing. Great lesson. I subscribed.

    • @BoomStickTactical

      @leonardpearlman4017 Před 4 lety +3

      That's a tough one! You really have to decide. If I get a good solid look at the front sight, the target itself is just kind of a rumor... it seems to work somehow. I can see WHY people would have optics or lasers, but I haven't done that yet except for dry-fire practice. I love the idea of the sights being projected ON to the target basically. Then everything is in one plane, and you can at least see it. You still have to do all the other stuff!

    This is one of the best videos I have seen on the anatomy of pistol shot and especially the weaver and isosceles stance. Many say the words but cannot actually tell how to do it. The discussion of the finger on the trigger is excellent (too far, not enough, best) and of sight alignment. So there are all the elements of a good pistol shot: grip. stance, sight alignment and trigger (add breath control .. stop breathing as you align the sights) . This is the Olympic profile .. but to become an Olympian you must master all of them ..with this video you know HOW .. so get to work. (and join NRA)

      @@BoomStickTactical I agree. And as far as weaver or modified weaver, the simple fact is non law enforcement is more likely to be in more close quarters and less likely to be in a extended longer range gun fight with lots of lateral movement (where an isosceles might be better). Non LEO is more likely to actually be physically contacted with the assailant, where a weaver or modified weaver is plainly a better stance to be in due to strong leg back and weak arm for pushback stability

    Great video, especially the camera work on site picture. Also, many shooters are never taught a proper stance or how to hold the gun correctly. These techniques are essential for good accuracy. You covered those subjects well. BTW, I am amazed at how rigid the Weaver stance can be. The push/pull effect is like locking the gun into position. With practice, it becomes second nature.

    I first started on 10 inch steel targets at a distance of 30-35 yards. Silly how I used to think it was horrible scoring 6 out of 10 shots on average from that range until I realized some people's group placement on door sized targets were far worse at closer range. I realized then that it wasn't about making steel go "ding" just to look good, it was about true accuracy. This video helped me improve even more and I'm been able to hit 10 inch steel targets out to 50-55 yards with relative ease after some more practice with the knowledge provided.

    Thanks. I just purchased my first handgun, a G2c. I went to the range and initially hit dead center where I aimed. Then, I started spraying shots because I was searching for the stance and grip that's most comfortable and effective for me. Even though the G2c is a compact gun, I like to stand slightly staggered with my left foot back. I also discovered, as you mentioned in the video, that because I had to much finger on the trigger, I was pulling shots right. This was very informative.👌

I'm a fairly new shooter that is trying the hell out of nailing basic concepts like the ones in the video before enlisting the help of an instructor to take me to the next level. I didn't want to pay $75+ an hour for someone to basically go over things like this that I could learn just from watching a video.

    good video man. Only thing I would suggest adding is the trigger reset after shooting a round. I know a lot of people let the trigger all the way out and others even take their fingers out of the trigger well after each shot. Letting them know that you only need to let out enough slack to hear the reset would cover everything. Thanks for sharing.

    I emphasize with my students that the flesh (heel) of the left hand TOUCHES the grip.
    So often I see the left had floating all over the place which makes the grip of the left hand weak.

    This is the second time I've come acrossed your video in about a year and this time I want to compliment you for what all I have learned. I tell the kids the same thing you said in the video but sometimes I think it's cheaper to buy them firecrackers, they just don't want to listen. Some days I have remarkable results and shoot 10 shots and know to stop, I can't do any better then this. And then again other days I'm hitting the 9/8 rings of the target with a couple of the shots flying off course. Your video has been very instrumental and I thank you.

  • @louiscyfer6944

    you demonstrate the problem with the weaver, your gun goes off center to the left with each shot. the isosceles is more consistent and stays better on centerline during recoil. you are distributing it down the arms equally instead of uneven distribution.

    • @BoomStickTactical
      @BoomStickTactical  Před 7 lety +2

      +louis cyfer different shooters shoot better with different stances. The weaver is better for gins that have a lot of recoil. What works for one shooter may not work for another.

    • @louiscyfer6944
      @louiscyfer6944 Před 7 lety

      BoomStick Tactical the uneven distribution becomes a bigger problem with bigger recoil.

    • @BoomStickTactical
      @BoomStickTactical  Před 7 lety +7

      louis cyfer no argument but some shooters still shoot better with that stance then any other. It all depends on the individual.

    • @tomylittlegirl626
      @tomylittlegirl626 Před 7 lety +1

      The bladed stance of the Weaver also helps by allowing your strong side arm to act as a stock of sorts and helping to line up your eye with your sights. It also helps you to present a slightly smaller target to anyone who may be shooting back if cover is not available. It DOES help with recoil. This can be demonstrated also in the fact that nearly everyone naturally takes a weaver stance of sorts when preparing to fight someone. It allows you to take a punch better and it allows you to put more of your power forward when punching, both concepts translate to better pistol recoil management. With the strong side leg slightly behind you, you can push off the ground and bend the knee to absorb recoil. From the isosceles the only way your legs can compensate for recoil is to step back, which throws off your entire shooting base. In the isosceles your arms and midsection must absorb the recoil by raising the weapon up and bending backwards at the waist which means more weapon travel before getting to successive shots. There is reason that the Weaver is taught to military and law enforcement from basic through advanced tactical shooting. The off center shot can easily be explained by the fact that he was aiming through a CAMERA.

      This guys sucks!......Just kidding. LOL
      My only question is regarding the push pull method. I was looking at another video and the guy said not to worry about that. I have to admit that not concentrating on the push pull and putting more emphasis on my sight picture improved my shooting tremendously. What I found was that by worrying about the push pull I was making my arms tired and ended up whacking my shots.

    • @1moreToney

I have been shooting with Fuzzy Sights. I calibrated the sights on my NEW 92FS myself. 3 different gunshops told me it was 'me' and not the Gun. Only an actual Gunsmith Believed Me.
