Just because you can’t get to the range doesn’t mean you can’t work on your fundamentals.

In the video below, our friends at USCCA show how you can work on your trigger control from the comfort of your living room.

The key is learning to isolate the index finger from the rest of the hand. If you squeeze your entire hand when you move your index finger you run the risk of impairing your grip and pulling your shot off target.

If you’re new to shooting, the demonstration in the video is a pretty clever way to practice manipulating that index finger without squeezing the whole hand.  Enjoy!
