Here's a video on your natural point of aim and how to find it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQtY2gkUM0Y

Jeez, what's the big deal. Yes you can open carry in Tombstone. No one will look at you funny. You cannot carry in establishments that serve alcohol for consumption on the premises. Any private property owner has the right to prohibit you from carrying (open or otherwise). They can post signs or...

"Flash" sight picture is a bad term IMO. It implies that you see the sight for a flash. You should see the sight the entire time (including during the recoil cycle). The bullet hits where the front sight is, so you should always be aware of the sight. This should not be confused with precision...

The best way to learn how to shoot multiple shots (whether 2 or 10) is to understand that each is a shot unto itself. Each should be treated the same. You should see the sight for every shot (with the amount of precision that the shot requires). There is no advantage to one sight picture for two...

That's a paraphrase of the principle. I quoted it exactly in another post.

Neither of these was the issue. The issue is that the sport was founded on eight principles and that those principles should be adhered to or changed by vote. Not blatantly ignored. The Texas Star (among other things) does not meet the standard set by the principles.

The movement is supposed to represent a target that steps out from behind a wall or other object and is taken out of the fight by either ducking behind the cover again or otherwise removed from the fight. You have to look at the target exposure, it turns toward you and turns away. Dropping is...

Those who like carnival matches should form their own sport in accordance with the principles they found the sport on. IPSC was founded on principles without the principles, the sport has no soul, no purpose. Don't kid yourself; membership has grown every year since its inception and will...

That would be fine except there are principles the sport was founded upon. Those principles should be followed. It doesn't matter what target you put out there or what the course is. The same guys are going to win. The best shooters are the best shooters period. You don't need to have 40...

Had two handy, 1990 and 2004. Didn't see them in the '04 edition.

Drop turners represent a target that is exposed then disappears and is out of the fight. Swingers represent a target which engages you then ducks behind cover. If the stage is set up properly (a rare find anymore), they are realistic. Movement isn't really an issue either. The trend to 30+...

The primary intended use is for defense. Please remind me how a head rotates that way. This is true. But the movement is not. That used to and should be a consideration. In a way, it doesn't matter since most shooters aren't aware of the founding principles and they don't publish them in the...

Umm . . . that would be the part that doesn't fit in with principle number five: Practical competition is conducted using practical targets, which reflect the general size and shape of such objects as the firearms may be reasonably called upon to hit in their primary intended use. The Texas...

No, I'm not Ron. But I do agree wholeheartedly with the views Ron expressed in his articles. The Texas Star does not meet the criteria set forth in the principles of the sport. It's not a question of liking them or not. Nor is it a question of ability. I shot on the super squad for a couple...

I don't blame NORCO for the Texas Star. I blame NORCO for the entire transition from Practical to Carnival. It isn't a question of what is fun. It is a question of following the principles the sport was founded on. The Texas Star, the 32+ round field courses and several of the other changes...

They should do away with them because they don't follow the principles upon which the sport was founded. Targets are supposed to be representative of a target which a person with a handgun may face. The Texas Star is not. It is just another symptom of what is wrong with the sport. It has become...

The best tip is to seek professional instruction. If you are shooting two handed, the diagnostic target is of little utility since it was designed for bullseye shooting. Adding the weak hand adds another dynamic. Your house is only as good as its foundation, so it is important to build a good...
