Strong Hand

It may be necessary to shoot using only your strong hand. When you practice this you will begin in the same manner as you would for freestyle using your normal stance.

  • Grasp the firearm as you normally would for a freestyle draw.
  • As the firearm is lifted out of the holster, the weak hand is brought close to your body.
  • The firearm should be brought up to eye level.
  • Your trigger finger should remain outside of the trigger guard.
  • As the firearm is punched towards the target, the trigger finger moves inside the trigger guard.
  • If your firearm has a manual safety, this is the time to turn it off, making your firearm ready to fire.
  • You begin establishing a sight picture as the firearm moves forward.
  • When your arms have moved to full extension, you should have established your sight picture.
  • Press the trigger until the firearm discharges.
  • Left side view.
