Sight Picture - Dry Fire 2023 July 30

A solo dry-fire session focused on sight picture and grip consistency. The speaker closes one eye to check alignment, emphasizes keeping the gun on the same trajectory each time, and plans 50 repetitions to build the skill despite the monotony.

Oh yeah, I am ready for tonight because I planned this so well today. All right, hopefully you read the description, you know what we're doing. Do you know what we're doing? Okay, here's what we are doing. I am working on sight picture. Last night I was working on looking at my target, bringing my sight picture up and seeing it. One of the things that I noticed is I had to close my eye a lot. So guess what? If we have something we're not good at, we need to practice it more. So just like we did multiple days of drawing practice, we only did one day of, uh, reloading because that was frustrating. But now I'm going to do more of just putting the gun in front of me, seeing my sight picture, bringing it back down. Putting the gun in front of me, seeing my sight picture, coming back down. What I want is when I put the gun up in front of me for it to look like that. Is it looking like that? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. In order for it to look like that, a couple things have to happen. My grip needs to be the same each time, so when I extend my hands out in front of me, my gun goes the same path. Place each time. So sometimes I don't know where my gun is pointing. I mean, I know it's pointing towards my target, but if I'm not seeing that center sight in the middle, then it means the wrong eye is focusing on my sights. So if I come up and I see it, I can close my eye to verify it's where I think it really is. We can get into the whole how do I do stuff another time, as far as how do you learn to shoot with both eyes open, and there is a way, but I'm not doing that tonight. So that is what tonight's dry fire is. That's it, short and sweet tonight. It's been a long day, and I am so looking forward to going to bed, but I will do another 50 reps of this, get my eyeballs working before I hit the sack, and and tomorrow is another day. And perhaps, just perhaps, I will get this done sooner in the day. All right, good night everybody. Thanks for checking in. Oh yes, it may be boring doing dry fire every single day. It may not be exciting, but it is what will make me better. I'm thinking in about another week, after another week of dry fire, I'm gonna go do another classifier. We'll see when that happens. Scheduling, you know.
