Champion shooter Rob Leatham of Team Springfield has advice that can make you a better shooter. Many people fixate on focusing on the sights to the extent that it hinders their ability to pull the trigger.

With PDN’s Rob Pincus shooting, Leatham instructs him to perform a closed-eye drill. Pincus drives the gun out, puts the sights on the target, finger on the trigger, then closes his eyes and pulls the trigger. This results in solid hits. Many people think they need to see the sights while they are pulling the trigger, but they don’t.

Stop fixating on the sights — it’s good advice for competition or defensive shooting.
