After I bought my shield and I was spending my obligatory time in front of the tv, dry firing and shooting bad guys, I noticed that when I gripped the gun in a shooting grip, that the front of the barrel pointed a little to the left.
If the gun is pointing off in one direction, instead of straight ahead, check to make sure your bore axis is in line with your elbow. If not, practice holding it that way, until it's automatic.
