I am right handed shooter but left eye dominant so not sure if this is a cause? Any suggestions/tips and I'd appreciate it! Thanks a lot
I'm righty, left eye dominant. Left leaning shots are usually too much trigger finger wrapped around the trigger, and as you squeeze, you have a tendency to torque your right hand… left. For now, don’t spend time, concerned on shooting low. Slow down on firing; make sure the trigger sits in the middle on your finger, first joint… not inside the joint. IN other words, the trigger needs to rest about as far back as the finger nail, that is mid point of the first joint. If you work on this drill, you will find your point of impact (POA) move right and slightly higher… you’re squeezing to hard.
