We'll be seeing her doing competition shoots next, she learns quick! The three dislikes are from the people she can already out shoot! Keep up the good work.
Great shooting on Natalies part. I also want to point out that the level of happiness felt by John at 20:30 is awesome to see. That’s what you should look for in an instructor, someone that wants their students to succeed and accomplish great things. The celebratory fist pump says it all.
As a new shooter myself, I really have to say I am jealous of Natalie's ability & accuracy. This has emphasized the necessity to practice, practice, practice! Thanks!
Thank you John for the bit about the C-clamp - made a huge difference in my grip. I was putting *way* too much pressure at my fingertips and tended to hit left even when I wasn't anticipating the bang.
@@roflchopter11 For sure, DA/SA is my jam... CZ P07 being my personal fave... But I like the novelty of the rotating barrel design... And it doesn't hurt that most variants ARE DA/SA...
@@roflchopter11 Yeah... The optics ready gun is almost becoming mandatory these days... The tactical variant I hear is both optics and silencer ready... With a better trigger to boot... But the general pistol's trigger gets much better over time...
Great video! That young lady is a really good shot! I love how you coach in such positive words, only creating the mental image of what you want your student to achieve while celebrating every success.
I've been shooting for a while, but only at a comfortable pace and without any formal training. I learned a few concepts here. I'll try to use them and improve. Also, even at this point in her training "Range Monkey" was a better shooter than me, without a doubt. I've got lots to learn...
Great Video on fundamental!!!! This is the best for me on grip and it really cleared somethings up for me. Thank you J & Monkey looking forward to her next training Video!!!! Hey what was the distance/Yards??
I’m so damn excited for this years summer Lol I’m gonna record several different shots so I can actually have a video to reference to challenges like such. This is gonna be fun haha
Is there a list of these standards for shooting someplace? You've referred to standards for draw to first shot, and now this 5x5 test... where can a new shooter find out about these things?
Do you think it’s worth it to get a .22lr version of your EDC to practice at the range with? Or are the differences between .22lr and 9mm too vast for it really to be beneficial. Just got a range membership and trying to not break the bank on ammo too bad.
I would like to know why Natalie chose a double action vs a single??? No hate here to her choice I would like to know her thoughts on this as somewhat of a new shooter. Was she coached into the write fit for her like the video of Johns wife on this subject? Thanks.
It's a double action/single action. I own a DA/SA (CZ-75) and I love it. The heavy double action trigger pull acts as a safety to prevent NDs, then after it cycles you have the light SA pull for follow up shots. I personally carry it Condition 1 (locked and cocked) so I have to remember to disengage the safety but I can get the light SA pull on my first shot.
I'm not a big fan of clearing by touch. I'm a mechanic and I've seen pins meant to hold stuff randomly let go. And that's spring loaded. Sticking your finger in isn't the best idea in my opinion.
@@neilweidner7037 that's also a fair point. Which is why I'm all for a double visual check. But safe gun handling is safe gun handling and puting your fingers in the way of spring loaded stuff isn't safe.
You get to do you. This is a pretty acceptable way to confirm that a gun is unloaded among folks in the industry. That doesn’t mean you have to do it that way but with my child on the range, I appreciate the extra steps.
@@neilweidner7037 i know. I see a lot of other channels recommending to do it by touch too. I've just got to many alarm bells in my head from work to be at all comfortable doing it that way.
@@Direwolf1166 I do the chamber check with my pinky finger as a compromise; it's definitely worth doing the manual check because it can be done in low light/no light, but I wouldn't use my trigger finger to do it in case of something somehow happening to it.

I love this! I love to show my daughter and watch her get more excited about shooting. She’s like “Dad can I shoot like her?”

She is no slouch! What a amazing video👍🏼

Even as much as practice, learn from competent instruction and be a good student. :)
Keep working, you'll soon be at her level or more Frank!
Great job, Natalie! John’s enthusiasm is contagious!
Great learning session! Will try this next time I’m at the range.
Fantastic instruction. SUPERB shooting!
The cool thing about the internet is, we can see the current skill level and come back to the beginner videos and really see the difference
Impressive shooting & an Invaluable lesson right here. Thanks John.
The last few minutes of this video made me smile. She's rockin it!
Nice, accuracy is on point
Thank you John for the bit about the C-clamp - made a huge difference in my grip. I was putting *way* too much pressure at my fingertips and tended to hit left even when I wasn't anticipating the bang.
Thanks John thanks Natalie.
I'm always glad to see a px4 of any version...

Way to go girl ! 😊 You are Blessed to be taught by one of the Best !
Anyone notice that with editing we're approaching Hollywood levels of not reloading yet not running out of ammo? lol
Haha yeah, we just don’t want to bore people with administrative tasks.
Great information thanks ASP 🐵
Great video! That young lady is a really good shot! I love how you coach in such positive words, only creating the mental image of what you want your student to achieve while celebrating every success.
Good stuff!
Calm clear instruction.

Nice job! I'm not sure I can do that yet.
Romeo Mike is shredding it! Next time she's gonna draw the smiley-face.
Attagirl. Solid fundamentals make a solid shooter
Good Job!
She's going to be great! Has a master teacher as well!!
John you're a great teacher and RM you're a great student. Thanks for the video.
Great Video on fundamental!!!! This is the best for me on grip and it really cleared somethings up for me. Thank you J & Monkey looking forward to her next training Video!!!! Hey what was the distance/Yards??
We were just working at 5 yards.
Love his teaching!! Great video, great job!
I’m so damn excited for this years summer Lol I’m gonna record several different shots so I can actually have a video to reference to challenges like such. This is gonna be fun haha
Just stumbled across this and love it, but I have tons of catching up to do!
Welcome aboard!
So very cool.
wow shes got real potential. im still working on not flinching and totally missing the target
Wow she's awesome! I'm going to have to try that.
You should!
Great job, both of you! John you are a consummate teacher!!
She's so adorable! Time to pinch her cheeks! Great job teaching John! I am looking to more vids!
Fantastic video!!!
Starting with a great instructor, so she's not learning bad habits!
Wow, she's a natural!
Is there a list of these standards for shooting someplace? You've referred to standards for draw to first shot, and now this 5x5 test... where can a new shooter find out about these things?
Search on the channel. There are bunches of videos on that! :)

She's gooood.

"My gun" when taking control - is that synergy with pilot training or is it commonly spoken like this?
It is 100% something I learned from positive control exchange in pilot training. :)
What is the name or type of the middle target?
It's an IALEFI Q target. amzn.to/3xITG4l
Does she have her own channel?
This is her channel!
Did you guys talk about why she picked that pistol?
I'm here
Think all responsible young people should have the opportunity to learn to shoot!

Fair point, but I’d rather get bitten by the slide than risk a loaded gun
