After orthopedic surgery on my right shoulder and on my right elbow followed by long and painful PT and home exercise regimine I am finally returning to shooting. I never really gave it up as I continued going to the range and practiced WHO shooting. Working with a SIRT pistol at home I finally felt I was ready to try shooting right handed again. Went out to the range and shot the Bullseye 3 way on a B16 target at 25 Yards.
I started with WHO:
21084
Not bad, feeling pretty good so far so let's try two hand:
21085
Hey, I'm pretty good at this! Won't take me long to get back to shooting some matches. Can't wait to see how SHO shooting goes:
21086
WTF! Four misses? I suck. My hand was shaking so bad that the front sight was just a blur out there. My grip strength is far worse than I expected considering all the work I have put into building up some strength in my right arm and hand. Also, my shoulder was surprisingly sore the next day.
Definitely need to step up with the home exercises and dry fire and see if I can get a handle on this. Anybody else here who has gone through this sort of thing have any suggestions for rebuilding shooting skills?
I think I was able to forget some bad habits with the time off from shooting and working on WHO shooting forced me to return to the fundamentals. Just need to find the easiest way to get my right arm working at 100% again.
