Beats reading all 670 pages of Hickey & Sievers “Successful Pistol Shooting”.

No kidding.

Technique is important but other than a gifted few, nothing replaces practice, practice, practice.

I need to fire at least several hundred rounds a month if I want to maintain even moderate accuracy.

“Shooting well is simple,” Ray said, “it just isn’t easy.”

This is true of so many things in life.

Take golf. Use the stick to hit the ball into the hole.

How much simpler could a game be? But I understand doing it well is not at all easy.

Would that Obama spent more time on the course.

“The “not easy” part is taken care of in repetition. Fortunately, repetition means shooting, and shooting is fun.”

Yep.
