As a new shooter that never shot a pistol before May 2017, I must say it looked a lot easier than it is! Got my LTCH and took a class at Five Stones and I practiced. Shot a Outlaw Steel match in Owensboro in September 2017 followed by a USPSA match in November. This year I have shot about 6 USPSA matches and the same number of Steel. I quickly found that accuracy was my downfall. Even for an "old guy" speed was not a problem. My vision is such that I can't focus on the front sight and target using the traditional front sight focus method. Basically closing the left eye and aligning the sights while placing the front fiber on the center of the "A" zone. So my question is has anyone been able to change to target focus and gain accuracy? Ok, enough talk. Below is my results. Please discuss.
Front sight focus, 30' left eye closed,draw from holster ,two controlled shots,~1.3-1.4 draw and .25-.30 splits
Target focus, both eyes open looking at center of "A" zone. Same distance,drill and times.
