I can listen to Ernest all day! His videos just keep getting better and better! The back edge grip technique is awesome! Look forward to trying that next range session!
I have taken two classes with Ernest. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody including my wife and daughter. He is a true gentleman warrior. It's almost hard to believe that he is giving away all of this very information that you learn in class. As much as he is giving away you will still get much more out of it if you visit him in person.
Thank you! We don't feel like we are giving away this information. With the limited amount of classes Ernest teaches because of all the other time demands, the long waitlists for his classes, and limited resources of many, we wanted to share this information so that people could learn at their own pace and we can help as many firearms owners as possible - from start to finish.
Thank you very much for posting this series. Its an incredible opportunity to get to watch and learn from. Its very generous of you to share this course with us.
Its amazing how little things make such a big difference. Ive been shooting awhile but i self diagnosed after this video and I moved my support hand back slightly to get on the grip better and it does work. I was in the reaching for something camp , lol. Hopefully it feels normal soon.
Earnest, this is prime training information! Thanks for making this available to you subscribers. I’m training a church Security Team and this is excellent information for them and me!!
Learned some more about using my support hand. I don't have a back edge left, but I can get behind some of the swell of the side panel better and feel the 'wrong/unusual' that is right, if that's the feeling of rolling my left drumstick forward and inward between the meat of the right hand and the swell/shape of the end of the left side grip panel. (SP-01). I guess there is more width real estate with the Berettas. When I press front to back with my right hand I feel a small gap forming on the right side. I'm thinking about different grip swells for both sides to get rid of it. I've got weird hands though, flat/wide palm and quite long fingers making it hard to find gloves.
Excellent content for full size pistols. I tried it on my compact carry pistols and there was little room for my support hand on the back of the grip. Perhaps I need to move my primary hand further foward or torque it as allow more real-estate on the back of the grip for my support hand. Any recommendations?
Smaller guns with smaller grips are much harder to hold onto, there is just no way around that. This is also why a smaller grip is not always better. Bottom line, you have to do your best to clamshell your support hand over the strong hand on the gun. Without seeing your grip, it is very hard to give advice.
It is hard to say without seeing you shoot. But dry fire is your friend to fixing these issues. Watch your sights in dryfire, if they move, then the shot moved.
Call me a Karen, but I'm glad to see this class conducted on a proper range, with a dirt berm, instead of on open land. I'm all in favor of public lands open to shooting, and I'm sure this guy always hits what he's aiming at, but I cringe when I watch his other, older videos, where his targets are set up against a backdrop of saguaro cacti; they're a protected species, with (last time I checked) removal or damage being a felony offense.
Those other videos are on approved Arizona BLM land ranges. We are careful about what lies beyond our targets and if you notice, there is a mountain there for a safe backstop.

Was that ‘sam pitchfork’ there at the end? Cameos, right? Great content from a true craftsman
Ernest is a master of his craft! I learn something every time I watch one of his videos, without faith.
Glad you are getting some good takeaways!

What targets are these being used? Anyone know. Great info as well, can’t wait to see more of these videos!
Langdon's own targets. Not sure if he's currently selling them.

Earnest no matter what I do my grip forces the gun left and I shoot left what am I doing wrong
