I'm a new shooter and everything I've read about gripping a gun seems to make me a worse shooter.
I've developed a nasty flinch where I shoot low left. I tried improving my grip, watching video after video... but it only got worse.
I discovered that it's the grip is causing the flinch. If I completely relax my grip and let the gun recoil my shots are great. But as soon as I try to grip the gun firmly or even think about resisting recoil I'll start flinching hitting low left really badly. I need all the tension out of my arms and hands and I'm fine.
I'm thinking I need to just go with what is working for a while - shoot with a relaxed grip and learn to watch the sight go up and back. Then after a few thousand rounds slowly learn to increase the grip pressure.
Has anyone else had this happen?
