I would just add that after getting this grip, you can roll your forearms toward each other. You'll feel your hands pinch the gun in place at the top. This helps mitigate the recoil more. Learned that tip from John Lovell.
Be sure not to lock your arms and have your elbows slightly bent. This makes your arms act as a giant very strong spring vs relying more on your wrists
Practice, practice practice.... But seriously, here are a few suggestions: 1) For many right-hand shooters, their groups are low and to the left. (For lefties it's low and to the right) This is a sign of recoil anticipation. Get a few dummy rounds and have a friend insert them into your magazine (or cylinder) while at the range. Your goal is for the handgun should remain rock solid when pulling the trigger on a dummy round. 2) Get one of those diagnostic targets that tells you what the problem is based on where your grouping is. There are PDF versions you can find on the internet and print out at home. (If using a target designed for right handed shooters, lefties will need to do a left/right mirror image of the diagnostics.) 3) Move the target closer until your accuracy improves. Don't worry about 10 yard groupings until you're consistently shooting 9's and 10's at the 5 and 7 yard distances. 4) Is your sight picture correct? Use a sand bag or other support and make slow steady shots? Are those accurate? If so, then it's you. If not, then it could be either your sight picture or the sights on the gun. Have someone else (a good shooter) shoot it. Can they hit bulls eyes with your handgun? If so, then it's possible your sight picture is not what your handgun is expecting. Have a conversation with that other shooter where each of you drawn how you see the sights and the target when you pull the trigger. 5) How is your eyesight? I need reading glasses for close-up and working on the computer. When I took up shooting, I found that my reading glasses were the wrong focal distance for me to clearly see the front sight on my handgun. My eye doctor loaned me some special lens that allowed me to determine the best strength that allowed me to see the front sight and the target. I went to the range and held each one up in front of my eyes while aiming my unloaded handgun at the target. After figuring out the desired strength, he then created an eyeglass prescription with a focal point at the tip of the barrel on my Beretta M9 with my arms extended in front of me. Having information about your handgun, caliber and ammo might provide additional insight. Plus your shooting distance and the type of targets you are using. Maybe you're just shooting ammo that is too hot for you. Is the handgun too big for your hands? Do you have unrealistic expectations of your accuracy? Some small handguns have barrels that are way too short to expect accuracy beyond 7 yards. There are some excellent training videos out there. Jerry Miculek's daughter has some good RUclips content on grip and practice drills. Do a Google search on: Lena Michulek handgun training video
So many "shooters tips" say the same things, fifty different ways. This is the first tip that's actually a "minor adjustment" that actually has a positive effect. Thanks.
Everyone of us is built slightly different and we learn to hold a gun the way it is most comfortable for us to shoot but we should also try different ways and maybe change if we shoot better. For me it did not work and I tried several new ways but I always go back to using my old Revolver Grip while shooting my Glocks. It Works for Me and it's Personal!
@@stevekatz4372 I agree with you... Nothing I may say should ever be taken with the inference that one size fits all. It's the process of working to find what works for each of us and picking what works and leaving what doesn't that's the important thing, whether griping a pistol, rifle or learning a stance. Happy shooting, brother.
First time I hear of this technique for follow up shots on RUclips. I implemented this at the range without realizing it was an effecting method to use. 👍👍. Thanks man.
I had a professional shooter teach me a technique that changed my life. I have become a very confident pistol shooter since then. He had me hold the gun in my left hand only and squeeze the life out of it. Then gently, wrap my shooting hand around on focus on only moving my trigger finger. The round went off and the gun never seemed to move. It instantly became clear to me. The grip of your off hand is where the control is, the shooting hand is the commander. I changed my technique. And grip hard with my off hand and relax a bit on the other and it's a world of difference. I also highly recommend a laser bullet for whatever gun you use. The free trigger time is unbeatable. Dry fire is mandatory.
Agreed on all points. Right handed left eye dominant here, shoot lefty. Strong hand acting as support hand allows me great recoil control. Have laser bullets for all my defense calibers. Fantastic cost-effective practice, cannot recommend highly enough.
@@naughtystep9856 I use a Pink Rhino 9mm laser cartridge and the Splits app combined with a target to dry fire practice. Don't have anything like the Mantis - but the Pink Rhino should be compatible with a lot of laser systems, as well as come in multiple calibers I believe.
I like how as a pro teacher you demonstrate and actually show how you need to make an adjustment rather than just film a perfect technique. definitely going to give this a try Thank you!
If you watch while he shoots, and note the position of the barrel before the first shot against the foliage in the background, you can see that this really works - the barrel returns to nearly the same spot against the fixed background after each shot.
Wow. Just tried during dry-fire, and even without recoil the difference is noticeable. Definitely going to try this next range trip - which now just got moved up several days!
I don't have my left arm, I think I do pretty good with my Kimber Ultra Carry II 45 acp. That is the thing with many RUclips videos. They assumed that every body have two hands without realizing how many disabled people are in the USA not to mention all the thousands of disabled veterans. So this video wouldn't do me any good. Is good for others, I am very familiar with all my guns, I never buy a gun that I cannot take apart. Thank you for the video.
No one can anticipate every physical issue a shooter will have. Im over 70 with arthritis and many other joint issues. You may want to search for a trainer specific to your handicap.
Should have shot with a traditional grip you discussed before you shot on one target, then shoot again with your new grip on a new target then show us the results. It's a lot better when the viewers can actually see the results. Great concept and I'll definitely have to try it out.
I was taught this the first time I shot but didn't understand why my wrist had to be angled down so hard so I started losing accuracy the longer I shot due to fatigue and anticipating recoil. I think this just fixed my problem
Kevin I am a retired LEO (4 decades) a POST Certified firearms instructor since 1993 ...taught thousands of officers and citizens. Im trying this myself Sir!....makes sense to me. Ill let you know how my groups perform.
I run a TLR-7 sub on my 43X and I took it to the range to see if I could use the on/off switch on the light to help control muzzle flip with my support hand thumb. It was substantial improvement in muzzle flip but felt awkward in my off hand forearm being at full tension like you talk about in this video. ...now that seems like a good thing.
OK, here again is another New Way to grip your gun and I wish I had a dollar for every New Grip I have seen over the years. IMO, your grip on a gun is highly personal for each of us with a slight variation on a basic hand grip because we are Not all built alike! I'm a Old Timer and I was trained on a S&W Revolver and I carried one for many years as my Duty Weapon and I also Qualified with one every year. I qualified at the Top of my Class every year and became a top shooter but then we switched to the Glock 19 and I learned to shoot this gun at a very high level and Carried it as my duty weapon up to my retirement! As for my Grip on my G19, I never established a New Grip from my old Revolver Grip and I managed to shoot Very Well with the Thumb Over Grip that is used on revolvers! Yes, I did try the New Grip as you show and that almost every shooter has been using but I slowly found that this New Grip does Not Work for Me! I guess I'm just Old School but I shoot well and The Revolver Grip works for Me! As I said it is a Personal Thing, so use whatever works for you and Not what everone tells you to do! Shoot Well & Good Luck!
I'm starting to have a lot of problem with arthritis in my left, off hand. The only thing I know to do is switch to a 380 acp. Any suggestions of 380's would be much appreciated. I don't want a small, pocket firearm.
That grip also helps you drive the gun faster from target to target. Same principle as a C clamp grip with an AR. Learned this several months ago form Tu Lam. It has helped my accuracy greatly.
Guess what someone at the range about a month ago was talking about this new grip he was trying. It made his forearm sore but he said it made a big difference. I didn’t have a handgun with me. But next time I go I’ll try it. Thank you
I have always been taught that my thumb on the right hand does not cross under the slider so it won’t get pinched. ie: thumbs on each side of the gun, not crossing under . Works well for me.
Interesting I have a very small hand and would like to know your opinion about the way I shoot my 44 mag DE I use a twisting grip, using my right hand as normal, but twisting it forward and down, with all the force I can now with the left hand, because of my small grip, I place my thumb behind and below the beaver tongue and twist the opposite way as to my right hand, with my fingers barely reaching in front of the trigger guard, This prevents me from jerking, etc, and better control. The gun seems to be stable in my hands when fired, and because I do use max reloads that have more impact, I do not find any kick back causing the gun to end up with a shell half in and half out,
Interesting. This adjustment is almost exactly what I was doing when my "expert" buddy told me I was holding the gun wrong! I'm going to go back to doing it my (your) way and see how it improves my aim! Thanks!
Kevin, I noticed that when I canted my left hand down as instructed I made my left elbow lock and turned it slightly up. it worked but was that to be expected?
This is very well presented, though it would be nice to have a comparison between a normal grip and the locked grip while shooting, and be able to see the target so we can see the difference between the two techniques
Mas Ayoob had a fine video about different thumb positions, with the pros and cons of each. "Both thumbs forward" is what competition teaches... But it's much easier to have it taken from you than other positions. Look it up on Wilson Combat's RUclips page.
Great hold. Has the same effect of canting the wrist, but without the bother and time to set up; been using this ("Ayoob") technique for many many years: Thumb print (support hand) over thumb nail (strong hand). Quick, easy, effective. Also transitions to strong hand only quite simply and fast.
@@rogerlinscott3224 I first saw and read Mas Ayoob putting firth the "thumb mashing" grip back in 1987. That and a modified Weaver, and I can download a magazine accurately with only the original sight picture. Muscle memory... It's a beautiful thing.
Glad to see that last years best way to grip or stand or whatever is now passe LOL.... Yours will be in a few years. Want to be accurate with a handgun? after 50 years of shooing a gazillion rounds? here is the best tip I can give you new shooters. Get the sights lined up on the target even after you pull the trigger and don't flinch. That is all there is too it. grip any way you want... stand any way you want. use whatever gun you want. Line up the sights... keep em lined up... don't flinch. those things are actually not possible tho... everyone flinches. Unless.. they don't think the gun is gonna go off. Put one round in a revolver and spin the cylinder. I NEVER flinch shooting a laser in my 45. or dry firing. Does that mean my grip and my stance are perfect? It actually does mean (if I do well) that I am concentrating on the sight picture. I am old enough to remember when the Weaver stance came out. At this point? my advice is? Do whatever is comfortable for you and don't flinch.
Not sure where everyone who thinks this is an updated technique, but I was taught a proper thumbs forward grip technique back in the 80’s when I was in a hostage rescue team with 1st Force Recon. Then the same thing when I got on my Police Dept in the early 90’s, then again when I got on with the Federal Air Marshal Service in the 2000’s. Yes, he’s spot on with how this helps manage recoil for fast accurate follow-up shots, but it’s far from something new.
Kevin this is Bill I carry a 38 Taurus I don't get to go to a range but I shoot here on the farm I never shoot the same distance ever time I would like to know what would be the best gun for me i did carry on my hip but after seeing one of your video I have it in a holster an clipped in my front pocket* can't draw fast but I love to shoot whenever I can any thoughts thank you for all your videos
This is similar to a video Warrior Poet Society did. John does a similar grip style. I've tried it and found that the meat of my left hand's thumb engages the slide release occasionally while firing causing the slide to lock open.
Do you have any tips on how to improve accuracy?

10/10 straight to the point.
