    ETA: I can't say with any certainty that it's affected my speed, one way or the other.
    Yeah, I don't exactly know why I do that. I think the twisting comes from trying to clear the shirt with my support hand--I have short arms and a long torso so I have to twist a bit to reach. And based on the class I took earlier this year I think I might also be doing it a bit from a subconscious "keep the gun away from the assailant" move.

    The hunching, no idea. Not intending to do it; probably trying to not be leaning back.

    I'll work on some of the stance stuff with the laser trainer tonight or tomorrow and see if I can get myself a little straighter. Then I'll work on drawing later in the week.

    Thanks again, everyone, for the feedback!

    In addition to slowing the draw, hunching often slows transitions, and can cause vision problems for people with corrective lenses, as they are not looking through the center of their lenses.
