Going to revisit this mainly from competition but obviously applies to shooting in general. So apologize if this has been re-hashed already. How many of you competition shooters use this technique that Frank Proctor advocates in terms of bending the elbows and removing tension from the shoulders, elbows, and triceps.

I use what I would consider more of the “traditional” way if there is such a thing, probably closer to the way Vogel advocates, and the way I first learned from more of the tactical shooting side.
Hope to give it a try and compare later this week at the range but was curious to hear from competitive shooters if this may be a better approach. Had a buddy who burned it up at a USPSA match this week and he attributed 100% to changing over to the Proctor method. Seems sight transitions where quicker and easier due to the way the head is positioned more upright and recoil was easy to manage by just letting it happened and getting back on target. Thoughts on this?
