gssf practice tips
1 - 20 of 28 Posts
The only practice I get is the weekly practice of 2 of the 5 disciplines I shoot and on a good month, 4 actual matches - Steel, IDPA, Bullseye, Pins. Steel [Challenge] appears to be the biggest overall help to me, and the bowling pin match every month is a bit like the GSSF plate rack.
I bought some D-1s a month ago to set up with our range poppers, but haven't gotten around to those yet. Three (including me) of our club ROs/Instructors are GSSF members, but not quite as dedicated to it as I am. I'm dragging them to Clearwater, however.

Have you tried using snap caps when you practice? They will tell you a lot. Also don't put any pressure on the grip with your little finger. And don't change your grip once you start to shoot. Let us know how you are improving.

Uh, thanks. Got to say, I don't do much dry-firing - to much time at home just typing away on GT I suppose. :whistling:
I'd say I use a natural and equal pressure with my pinky as the rest of my strong hand fingers, then surrounded by the same type of equa-pressure (on the gun) with my weak hand wrapped around my strong hand. And I'm not one to 'milk' a grip if that's what you mean. My trigger finger is basically operationally independent from the rest of my grip.
Guess I'll see if I can eeck any improvement out of the Pensacola match.
I went to get new glasses today (after 6 years...). Wouldn't it be 'funny' if my my recent shooting woes were simply vision related? :crying: Due to the complex script, my Lenscrafter "Glasses in 1 hour" will be ready in 7-10 days. What the...
If the glasses fail me, it's time to hire Ed with a large tip. Now to find a corrupt M and a 5 RO.
You originally from Chicago Ed?
i'll give them a call tomorrow afternoon, thanx

he moved to get closer to BamaTrooper. I hear he's considering a name change to BamaEd to be more like BamaTrooper.
as for improving your game if you can find a range with Action Pistol it would be a great way to prepare for GSSF since GSSF is a modified Action Pistol match.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww Ed :cheerleader:
Looks more like a Javelin to me.
Klassic there is a wealth of information on here about practicing and the answers to any other qusetions can be found on here as well. Trust me...I asked them all:tongueout:. All joking aside the answers you are looking for are here, learn to use the search option (wish I had did that at first) and do not be afraid to ask questions. Remember even the highly experienced shooters on here (which I am not) were new once.
Ed says Bama was born a Master.
