One of the skills that I would like to improvement on is weak hand shooting. It's part of my dry-fire routine, but I often find myself being disappointed with my performance on the range. However, I found the article below online last night. It's from 2002 and I would like to know if it is still current and useful advice. Are there other techniques?
"The Hidden Strength of the Weak Hand" by Andy Kemp

Some excerpts:
"If you are in only one gunfight in your life and you need to use your weak hand, then 100 percent of your gunfights required you to shoot with your weak hand."
"Why is it that training one hand makes the other stronger at the same task?"
"Shooting a few rounds weak hand only at each range session will get you on the right path. Regularity is more important than launching boxes of ammo downrange in one session."
"curl the thumb down and crush the grip in a fist. This is a stronger hold and will prevent you from limp-wristing. The dominant hand is in a tight fist, palm up, tight against your chest. Ideally, the gun side leg should be forward with your shoulder forward off your hip, putting more of your body weight into the recoil. Lock the elbow!"
"the sights will not be aligned with your eye. Either bring the chin to the shoulder or slightly cant the can to correct this."
"One of the great secrets of weak hand training is "mirror image" shooting. It's just what it sounds like... reverse the roles of your strong and weak sides and your stance and hold will look like a mirror image of your normal shooting stance."
