I forgot my belt/holster when I left the house this morning so I looked up DOTW's I could do from a ready position and selected the FBI Bullseye Course. I shot a 277/300, which ironically is the exact same score as the last time I shot it (April of 2017). Not terrible, but definitely room for improvement. I definitely rushed the first string with the 10 sec par time. Elsewise decent time management.
There's that damn high left trend again.
Next, I decided to try and clean up my 25yd stuff. I shot a few points better, but an overall worse group:
I spent the last 10 rounds on another 25yd B8 and It was so bad I didn't even take a pic. There were four 7's.
My sight picture and alignment looked really good today. Nice sharp front sight. Thus, I can only attribute this stuff to either trigger or grip. Trigger control seems good, especially based on the J-frame stuff last week. That leaves me honestly and seriously considering dumping the Glock. I've given it a solid 4-1/2 years with the same G17. I've learned a ton and grown a ton with it, but now I wonder how much it's really worth continuing to beat my head against the wall of ergonomics. I have decent sized hands, but shorter fingers. I think this affects my interface with the Glock. Numerous times in my 4-1/2 years of "serious" pistol shooting I've picked up a different gun, one I've never shot before and instantly delivered the same or better performance as what I can do with my thousands-of-rounds Glock. There are downsides to consider. The Glock is so ubiquitous that mags, parts, holsters, etc are cheap, easy to find, and I already have a bunch of it. At the same time, I'd like to improve my performance and when I can pick up a 1911 I've never seen before and shoot a 98/100 on a 25yd B8, and then work my ass off to keep my Glock at a 95, that tells me something. Of course, 25yd shooting isn't everything and a Glock is probably faster and easier to reload than a 1911, but there are multiple other good choices. We'll see what the future holds.
