  • Welcome to our channel! In this video, @johnthefirearmsinstructor will explain why you are missing Low and Left All the time. We had Subscriber Carlos Say " Why Do I Shoot Low and Left All The Time " John will explain why you shoot Low and left and How to Solve your Problem.
    Are you tired of constantly shooting low and left?
    It's frustrating, isn't it? No matter how hard you try, your shots consistently end up low and left. But why does this happen? Well, I'm here to solve that mystery for you.
    Hi, I'm a professional shooter and today, I'm going to guide you through the ultimate solution to overcoming those low and left shots.
    The most common reason for shooting low and left is improper trigger control. This means you're using too much trigger finger.
    Instead, focus on using the pad of your fingertip, not the crease. This will help maintain consistent pressure and prevent pushing your shots off-target.
    Remember, smooth and controlled trigger pull is critical for accuracy.
    Another possible reason for low and left shots is improper grip and stance. Ensure your grip is firm, but not overly tight, and maintain a stable platform with a balanced and relaxed stance.
    Don't forget to align your sights properly and focus on the front sight. This will help you consistently hit your target dead center.
    Lastly, practice, practice, practice! The more you train and develop muscle memory, the better your accuracy will become.
    So, don't give up. With the right techniques and dedication, you'll be mastering precision in no time. Remember, practice makes perfect.

    You showed me everything I have been doing wrong. This is by far the best video I have seen on how to fix shooting low and to the left. And I have watched a lot of them because I have put dozens, if not a few hundred rounds low and left. It has been driving me crazy.

    @tommissouri4871 Před 7 dny

    I have one 1911 that used to be right on all the time, but lately, it seems to be low and left. Not by a little, but a lot, like 12-14 inches left and 12-14 inches low at 15 yards. Now my other 1911s are still in the target area usually within a 6 inch circle of the bull's eye. Since I'm still on with the others, I have thought it is the pistol, but I can't fine anything off on it in disassembly. I'm beginning to think I am shooting it differently for some reason, and after your description, I think I'll set up a video of me from the side to see if I am jerking or moving.
    Possibly the only improvement I can see on your video is that you paint your sights so that they show up against the yellow so we can see them. Thanks.

    I shoot competion .22 onehanded at 25 yards. I recently got my first gun. A smith and wesson model 41 with the 5.5 inch heavy barrel. I shoot low with it more kften then not. Your the first one that tells me to use the waist to aim. But it makes sense. You don't turn with the arms just as you said. I will try that the next time im at the range.

    What about different grip sizes and hand sizes. Does finger tip rule apply 100% of the time?

    • @johnthefirearmsinstructor
      @johnthefirearmsinstructor  Před 9 měsíci

      In the vast majority of cases the fingertip rule applies just because of how your hand is built. As you creep further on the trigger you tend to roll your finger instead of coming straight back.

    What you recommend for right hand shooting with left eye dominant?

    • @johnthefirearmsinstructor
      @johnthefirearmsinstructor  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Make sure you watch the our Video on proper grip. The importance of marrying the weapon and your dominant eye is so important make sure that you engage the trigger that you are pressing the trigger and not pulling the trigger. It’s very common for someone who’s right handed and left eye dominant to push the weapon left with the trigger, it’s the tip of the finger not the trigger finger crease

  • @deadwaters2786
    @deadwaters2786 Před 5 měsíci

    I also found that too much pressure with my thumps will cause me to shoot low and left

    • @johnthefirearmsinstructor
      @johnthefirearmsinstructor  Před 5 měsíci

      Are you left handed? If so I could see that
      But if right handed it’s mostly likely trigger pressure. Most right handed students shoot left in low left because of pulling the trigger and not pressing the trigger. Next time you’re at the range, make sure you use the tip of your finger and slowly press the trigger. Don’t pull the trigger
      Remember the shot should surprise ya

    I got a FN 502 here recently and out the wolf pro red dot on it. The impacts I’m getting are like a inch to the left and if I try to adjust the red dot to hit more to the right then my dot sits past the left side of the front iron sight. I don’t have this issue out of any of my other firearms with dots on them. I can’t figure out the issue

    • @johnthefirearmsinstructor
      @johnthefirearmsinstructor  Před 2 měsíci

      Glock Trigger are Stiff
      I would Recommend Dry Firing
      Go back to Two Hands combat Grip
      Your Dominant hand should be 40% squeeze and Your Non Dominant hand should be 60%
      Start at 3yards and 6in circle
      Make sure you have A Good Trigger press
