Shooting Wheel

This diagnostic chart shows common problems shooters experience when firing a pistol and where on the clock face each issue typically occurs. Common errors include jerking the trigger, snatching the stock, excessive finger or thumb pressure, and not focusing on the front sight. Most problems can be addressed by developing a solid grip, focusing on the front sight, and squeezing the trigger smoothly on each shot.

LOCATIONS ARE FOR A RIGHT HANDED SHOOTER, WITH ONE-HAND GRIP. FOR LEFT HANDED SHOOTERS, SWAP LOCATIONS RIGHT TO LEFT. MOST PROBLEMS CAN BE CORRECTED BY: (1) DEVELOPING A SOLID, REPEATABLE GRIP, (2) FOCUSING ON THE FRONT SIGHT, AND (3) GETTING A 'SURPRISE' SHOT WITH A STEADY TRIGGER SQUEEZE.
