You need to listen to this guy. He talks about subject matter that 90% of other firearms instructors don't cover. And this is VERY relevant info for those that are trying to really dial in their technique. Great job!
I like how you explain In the beginning the most important is not your results on the target but how you hold your pistol and your finger on the trigger. Greats from Belgium 🇧🇪
Excellent instruction. At 84 I've gotten a bit rusty. I have used a double grip with my support forefinger against the trigger guard but without the upward pressure. Thank you so much for enabling me to correct this issue.
Simple knowledge that is so often mis understood. Great info and the way it is delivered help people understand without live training. Thank you so much
Dipping is my biggest problem when shooting. I am currently in the Academy, and the shooting is stressing that he'll out of me right now due to the dipping.
I have been throughly impressed with these pistol skills sessions. I only wished that I had taken a picture of the before targets before I had started to watch and absorb the training that has been presented. Looking at my shoots now it looks like two completely different shooters. Looking forward to completing my training with their live instructors.
I rarely comment on videos with a "thank you", but this one really deserves it. I'm a pretty high level shooter, and even I would sometimes catch myself dipping the pistol when going for really fast splits, and it's absolutely true that other instructors just don't touch up on it. It would happen seemingly at random. But now I know what the variable in my grip was. Subscribed.
@@TacticalHyve You're welcome! Certainly is one issue I see with new and experienced shooters. I just watched the consistent grip video and posted on my band app for my students. The nutcracker along with your other "don'ts'") is a great way to explain it! Appreciate your clear instruction Myles!
There is also a physiological muscle reflex at play here. Everyone knows about the knee jerk reflex which is an involuntary contraction of a muscle when it is put under tension. There are similar reflexes in the arm muscles as in the brachiocephalic muscle reflex which is elicited with a hammer as is done eliciting the knee jerk reflex. Perhaps the sudden tension put on the forearm muscles from the gun recoil elicits an involuntary opposing spinal reflex that could cause muzzle drop after the initial elevation from recoil. Believe it or not this is worse in younger people with brisk reflexes
If you’re referring a full-size government model, there are plenty of better options more suited to concealed carry. A double stack 9mm compact? If it’s what works best for you, no need to seek somebody else’s approval :)
I appendix carried a 1911. It’s totally doable. Magazine capacity is an issue, I had a 7 round magazine in the gun and an 8 round magazine in the side car magazine carrier. I found magazine capacity was more important than feeling big and powerful with my hand cannon chambered in 45 ACP. 9mm is every bit as good and I can now carry 15 rounds in the gun and 15 in the sidecar. Reliability is a concern with a 1911. They run great if perfectly maintained but if they get dry and a little dirty they are prone to nose dive the round into the feed ramp and have failure to feed and out of battery failures. Cool fun gun but a beater reliable 9mm carry is the way to go in my opinion
You are focusing on a solid foundation between the heel of your palm and the backstrap of the gun. If you see someone shoot and their muzzle wobbles when it returns after recoil look at their palm placement. Usually their bottom of the heel of their palm is off center of the backstrap of the gun. Plus they need to improve the proper heel pressure. The proper amount of pressure is very personal and will take hyper focus to figure it out. Plus focus on the upward pressure on the trigger guard. As you work on it you will see improvement.
It's different for everyone, but the whole "keep your firing hand lose" thing is horribly overrated and overused. Yes, new shooters tend to death grip a pistol and that will affect the trigger control but ask the top shooters how they hold their pistol, and they'll all tell you they hold it pretty tight with both hands. At least I know Rob Leatham does.
13 minutos de video , para decir que la mano de apoyo contrarresta la supuesta caída del arma,. El arma se sujeta con dos vectores que se contrarrestan, mano que empuña hacia abajo y mano de apoyo hacia arriba , por lo tanto el disparo queda en un punto 0 , de movimientos marginales del un mal empuñe. RESUMIENDO MANO QUE EMPUÑA HACIA ABAJO , MANO DE APOYO HACIA ARRIBA ..... poco mas

Thanks for the comment!
Totally agree. There is a lot of next level stuff in the content but at the same time things lower level instructors would do well to include as well.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Dam!!!!! This guy knows his stuff.
Hey Joe, weird catching you on here man. I was just watching Dual Survivor. Trippy Synchronicity
I like how you explain
In the beginning the most important is not your results on the target but how you hold your pistol and your finger on the trigger.
Greats from Belgium 🇧🇪
this channel is my new favorite channel .Just excellent explanations and instruction.
This is the first video that I have seen that talks about that dipping of the muzzle.
Thank you!

Great stuff Myles. This is definitely my favorite channel. Thank you Sir for what you do for the civilian gun owners!
my favorite expert! I watch and take to the range over and over again. Your videos make me a better shooter and better instructor!

Nice one Miles. Sounds like an exact science to the fundamentals of gripping. Thanks!

Fantastic!! I wish you would run a course or 2 here in the Greater Phoenix, AZ area during these cool months of November through April!
Thank you for addressing this topic. Phenomenal channel
Excellent Video Miles! Your technique has been quite helpful in helping me to correct dipping and improving overall accuracy.
Thank you, great video!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for the donation!

Great job, I'm an avid shooter and i have really enjoyed these dry/live fire video series for grip and trigger
Well explained and i like the way he talks very very clear... great job bro..
Excellent explanation, thank you!
Good video and explanation!
Great tips.
Dude is so disciplined that when he tried what not to do it was still better than my best day muzzle control
As always, master Myles is teaching nice technics! Thanks a lot!
So useful shooting tips... Thanks
Always enjoy your content and gain much from each video. Thanks for what you do.
Good instructions. Thank you.
You guys put out AWESOME content!!!👍
Brother Myles very informative. What Glock model is that?
Thanks
Very good tips. Thanks
Thanks so much ironically I made this exact mistake not too long ago ...now I know what to fix. Much Appreciated
Thank you so much to share your very expert experience. It's very helpful to me.
Excellent explanation, Myles 👍🏽
Something to learn being a beginner in gun handling
Thanks, i learn how to manage recoil.
Very helpful information. Thank you.
Great video. Subscribed. Why do you have a James Webb infrared telescope logo on your shirt?😁
Good information.
What ear protection are you using ? Can you post a link to the ear protection.
Thanks
Thanks!
Thanks for the donation, George! We really appreciate it!
Thank you....
Awesome video Man👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾..fantastic tips
Love the teaching technique
Love the hyve products
just bought a recoil spring for my pdp pro and the video was published. great video!!
This was very informative 👍🏻👍🏻
Informative
Thanks as always, Miles. I’ve noticed you’re using the 34 a lot lately. Do a video on why. Thanks.

Same reason why women tend to shoot better in the beginning, they're less likely to have the same strong reflexes men do.
Easy to fix. Get the grip right and fine tune the recoil spring.
Just learn fundamentals. You don't need to get a new recoil spring if you can shoot....
Hey, excellent advice. I will try it on the range. Thanks. Question: what do you think of a 1911 as EDC conceal carry?

My unit stop shooting, i just hear a clik sound when im pulling the trigger also the motor getting hot, what are the possible problem?
Дякую Вам!!! Ви профі з великої букви. PS: навіть без знання Англійської я розумію усі Ваші настанови.
if your pistol is over sprung (recoil) that will cause the muzzle to dip as well.....
good video
support hand or control hand which one😅😊
lastima que no se puede traducir a español.. pero buen video
And the finger control on the trigger will not change because of your grip is tighter now???

If your muzzle is dipping you need to date hotter chicks

It’s all about training. I’ve seen Glock shooters be slow and inaccurate. Technique and skill are what is most important.
Someone tell all the USPSA/IPSC championship shooters they need to switch to glock!!!
