I am taking a defensive shotgun course next weekend at Tac Pro Shooting Center. I know I am going to have to fire the 12ga 870 on my weak side. Any hints or special techniques? Suggestions?
You should have neither a weak side or a strong side. And be able to shoot with each side equally.
Hold on there, are you serious? I think everyone has a natural side, even us crazy lefthanded people!
Sure I have my preferance for shooting and am better with one stance as opposed to another. Am I a bad shooter because I'm not ambidexterous?
I was more commenting on the fact that the term strong and weak hand, is sorta from the very beginning setting you up for failure. If you call it your "weak hand" you execpt it to not be as good as your "strong hand" ergo what's the point in trying to make them equal. By calling them right and left, you are simply defining what side of the body they are on. You then will mentally be more ready to make them equal.
Words build worlds.
