Thanks Kristen. These are tried and true techniques and with all the garbage on the web, new and sometimes not so new shooters can benefit from the advice of accomplished shooters. We use these same techniques in Highpower and they work. Sometimes people who are built differently have to adapt. That doesn’t make these techniques wrong. Sorry Gary.

I will have to take issue with all the gunwriters who state emphatically that there is only one way to grip a pistol and trigger finger placement.
I was blessed with very small hands. I cannot grip any centerfire pistol in the manner prescriber by most gunwriters. In addition, when I was very young my trigger finger was accidentally smashed and was never reset properly. As a result, the finger points to the left of straight and is a bit shorter than the other index finger.
I have been shooting pistols of all descriptions longer than most people have been alive. I learned,through experimentation, how to overcome my handicap and become an above average shooter with pistols and long guns.
Experimantation is the key along with lots of practice.
Don’t let anyone tell you that you cannot become a very good shot no matter how you are forced to place your trigger finger or grip the pistol. You can.
Instructing the average person on the proper way to grip a pistol is sound practice but not all of us are average.
Consistency is the key to good shooting. Do things the same way every time. And always remember,practice,practice and more practice along with experimentation with grips,shooting stances,etc. will lead to excellence.
Good shooting!!!
