After months of doing research on the proper grip, this includes watching pros, I finally got it! Most of the videos I've watched always said to lift elbows upward to created more grip pressure. I found that this would also force my little finger to come up, which is supposed to be tight. Thanks to you I finally got the "aha" moment. I finally understand! Thank you. You are a very thorough Instructor.
Worked on this grip today, works great. I beleive I'm driving the gun down when taking the second shot. Or anticipating the shot, it's only the second shot.
This probably just changed the game for me. This has taken a lot of stress out of my hands and fingers and now I can pull the trigger more precisely since I'm not actively trying to maintain the grip with my hand muscles but with better body mechanics.
Com certeza a melhor explicação, aqui no Brasil não vi nenhum instrutor ensinando a tecnica do quebra-nozes foi maravilhoso. Obrigado pelos ensinamentos.
i hever saw an explanation so good about it, and i have watched a LOT about guns on internet. Thanks for your work, i subscribed. And just for you to know, you've reached me in Brasil.
can you tell me what you have wrapped around your pressure hand (support hand) index finger, because that's exactly where I feel pressure to the point of pain whenever I practice for a while.
do the angle / bend of the elbows play key part into applying pressure to the back of the gun? I'm finding if i turn my elbows out i am applying a ton more pressure, creating much more friction where the gun stays connected to my hands, of course not so much where the bottom of my palm separates from the gun
Yes, the angle of your elbows plays a significant role in creating a more efficient grip by increasing the nutcracker effect. There is a diminishing return though, if you roll the elbows too much up, that will create a gap or lack of pressure at the very bottom of the back strap of the pistol grip. We recommend experimenting with the elbow position until you find your personal "Goldilocks" zone. Observe the sights recovery after the recoil. They will tell the story. Look to see them freeze in alinghment without additional dip. That will indicate a good position of the elbows.
@ great response ! Thank you for your time, I found this out by accident but wasn’t sure if it was correct or not, but my gun was returning while my palm pressure was sticking to the gun 🙌
Thanks for the video brother, it's really good, but my question is do you have to straighten up ur arms when you bring up ur handle gun to shoot,or you will have to stop the extension of ur arms before they are straitened up
We teach to keep the elbows slightly bent. Pay attention to the angle of your elbows when the hands naturally hang aside. That is the angle of the extension when you present the gun. We call it the natural extension. From that position, just stiffen the elbows using the forearms and the triceps (like you are in a push-up position).
C Clamp emphasizes that you use the middle portion of your fingers to grip front to back, in other words, avoid using the fingertips as a main point of pressure. The Nutcracker effect will be achieved by anchoring the fingers on the front strap of the gun and then closing the back of your palms, applying pressure heel vs. heel 👍🏻
The shoulders must be directed down and back. The lateral muscles will engage if you apply that correctly, not so much activation of the shoulder muscles.
The best explanation of how to grip a handgun ever!
Thank you, we are glad you like it! It's just a little segment of the entire grip explanation.
One of the best lessons and shooting tips I’ve ever gotten. Still working on it!! Great video!
Thanks!
I really like this explanation of the grip.

awesome, thank you!

You had me at Rob
Ótima lição, parabéns!
can you tell me what you have wrapped around your pressure hand (support hand) index finger, because that's exactly where I feel pressure to the point of pain whenever I practice for a while.
You can use athletic tape or finger sleeves to make the pressure point more comfortable.👍🏻
good stuff

Same technique for j-frame revolvers?
Yes, you can modify the position of the thumb of your control hand slightly to fit the small frame but the same principles apply. 👍🏻

damn what frame 😮💨
How to combine nut cracker technique with the C Clamp?
C Clamp emphasizes that you use the middle portion of your fingers to grip front to back, in other words, avoid using the fingertips as a main point of pressure. The Nutcracker effect will be achieved by anchoring the fingers on the front strap of the gun and then closing the back of your palms, applying pressure heel vs. heel 👍🏻
Do you tense your shoulder when this is applied I find my shoulders getting tense. Is this normal or am I doing this wrong?
The shoulders must be directed down and back. The lateral muscles will engage if you apply that correctly, not so much activation of the shoulder muscles.
@@TacticalPerformanceCenter thank you!
Brasil agradece
🖐🏻👍🏻
Are these guns magnaported
Nope, just stock. 👍🏻
It's quite similar to the 9-time champion's grip, is this also his grip?
Are you talking about Eric Grauffel?
For some reason, Borat and Christopher Walken keep coming to mind
Cool
👍
Flat as hell omg what a beast
It's all about understanding and application of the principles of performance!
Great knowledge
