24:50 I’ve been dealing with Shooter Elbow for months. I just ordered the wrist roller on Amazon and will start using it tomorrow! I’ll try to remember to report back in a few weeks.
Thats exactly how Frank says it Nick and its spot on. Grabbing the rail where there is a slight bend in the elbow and allowing the arm to hang in itself pulls the rifle into the body. This is consistent whereas pulling back on the rifle with everything is not repeatable consistently for several different reasons. Great show fellas.
Holy crap….. I was just at the range this last weekend ….. and came to the same conclusion regarding my elbows …. As soon as I pulled the gun in just a little, my recoil pattern became a LOT more predictable and my dot never left my window ….. it was night and day at 10 yards
HIGHLY recommend getting a good arm compression sleeve and or a localized spot compression band or TheraBand’s that allow for pronation of the wrist. This will allow you to work out the inflammation properly if you experience “shooters elbow”. I had a horrible case of it two years back in both arms and the compression bands + TheraBand’s worked incredibly well. The blue TheraBand is a great starting pt for those with severe cases of lateral epicondylitis. Awesome podcast!
I always recommend people work through pain, versus just "take time off". I have found many times injuries tend to get worse when long break from physical activity is taken. Fun fact: Typically after 4-8 weeks, an actual injury has healed. Either with new tissue or scar tissue. This puts you in a place where the issue is not necessarily the injury, but is pain itself. There are some excellent articles out there about the benefits of pushing through pain and nociception. I highly recommend them.
Poaching is a rabbit hole just from the fact that most concepts has been learned from someone else. Or at least part of the concept. For an example, Billy gave credit to Travis Haley for the 1, .5 and .25 second Count Drill. Just because it was the first person who you heard put that information out doesn't mean they came up with it. I heard Erenst Langdon put out that same information in a class back in 2004. Im sure Ernest learned it from someone else as well. There is also the fact that people who are on the path of perfecting a craft, will come to common truths on their own without hearing it from anyone. If they both put out that information, people may think one learned from the other, but the truth is they both discovered it on their own.
great stuff! I look forward to implementing it at the range

Were these regular 3 prongs or surefire war comps with the built-in compensation

Yep, very little in shooting technique was invented by anybody still teaching today.
My new favorite podcast!
I love the detailed talk from real practitioners.
Perfect host chemistry. Well done guys 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
