Does anyone know of a website that I can download one of those shooting charts. It has about 6 different zones. The one I remember seeing had Low Left due to jerking the trigger. I don't remember off the top of my head what the other zones were for.

Thanks All,
Joe's
 
Joe's, unless you're shooting bullseye, one-handed with a pistol at arm's length, that chart has nothing of value. Seriously. It won't help you.
 
Thanks morcey2. You made my day.:rofl:
That made my day, thanks! :rofl:

That's what they bought me for. At least that's all I can figure out since I don't have much technical knowledge. :)

Speaking of which, to the OP, if you're trying to diagnose a flinch or anticipation of some sort, go with a friend and some dummy rounds/snap-caps to do some ball-and-dummy drills. Have your friend load a magazine with a mixture of live rounds and dummy rounds, then have you shoot it. If you're flinching you'll look like an idiot when it doesn't go off. I know from personal experience. :D That and dry-fire drills help a lot.

Those charts are designed for the oppressive right-handed majority. As a southpaw I feel discriminated against and marginalized. You need to refrain from commenting on my comment lest I end up needing to retreat to a safe space.

It's not enough. These changes need to be codified, making any future perceived slights felonious, and a disproportionate amount of additional recognition, favoritism, and tax-payer's funds needs to be given to left-handers world wide since it's a human right to have access to shooting charts designed for southpaws. Handedness is not a choice! Our next battle will be for the extremely marginalized fringe, the trans-handed movement - those right-handers who were born into the bodies of left-handers.

I feel your pain. Here's a safety pin to show my solidarity:

I tried to find a left-handed one, but apparently they don't make any.
 
John McPhee did an excellent dissection of the flaws with the shooting diagnostics "pie chart."
After seeing his video, I find myself mostly in agreement with him, because as a firearms instructor, over the years, I've really never found the pie chart useful. Oh, and by the way -- there is a pie chart for left-handers, of course.
Let's see if the link works, folks.

I watched the BRIEF video of McPhee, and he touched on a couple of points that made sense. I will add these to the use of the ideals the chart suggest because it is still a good aid, but only an aid. Real answers come from watching the shooter and gun.

I used to have one for rifle shooting. Made it myself because none could be found. I'll see if I can find it then put it in this thread.

Watching a rifle shooter's trigger finger and putting the results of flicking it off the trigger as the firing pin falls is hard to put on a pie chart. It's usually combined with other body movements and the bullet can strike any direction from call or target center. Only when that trigger finger stays back against the stop until the gun stops moving from recoil is the shot's call reliable. Then the pie chart can be used to best evaluate the shot.
