Definitely the best instructor on the internet. Hoping one day to actually take your classes in real life.

Great content. Got a subscriber cause you showed a miss hit and didn’t edit it out or re shoot. Just left it in and I think that’s humbling to see. Love that.

[@SouthpawActual]

This was an excellent breakdown of the grip and something that needs to be a standard among instructors instead of trying to sell 'snake oil' grips. I personally fell for it in the past and ended up putting in more effort while getting fewer results. Instead, I switched to a principle-based approach and gained what I truly wanted: consistency and the ability to perform on demand. Great video, AHT-you're setting the standard for the industry!

[@achillesheeltactical]

@@SouthpawActual yes! You must be willing to put in the work and look for certain principles then modulate and tweak YOUR OWN grip! Thank you bro! Look forward to training with you again!

[@walterlewis7988]

Insightful and thoughtful teaching. Nice job.

[@seanm1054]

Great information. I've been shooting since 1992 and learned quite a bit from your video! Thank-you!!

[@achillesheeltactical]

@@seanm1054 that’s great to hear!

[@hartshot8455]

Always the most comprehensive and digestible gun related content on KZbin! I could’ve saved so much time and money of learning things the hard way if I would have had access to this content years ago. Thank you so much for this information. I share these videos with every person I care about lol

[@achillesheeltactical]

@@hartshot8455 thank you! That’s awesome to hear man!!!

[@nextgen_performance]

Attributing left misses to pulling the trigger with your entire hand makes a lot of sense to me. Hadn't thought of it like that before. Not just an issue with the trigger press but an issue with firing hand pressure. Good stuff

[@achillesheeltactical]

@@nextgen_performance yes!! 💯💯💯

[@YellowjacketGTO]

Learned that back in the 80s. Not news.

Excellent Video Paul....

[@DefenderCJ21]

The principle based approach is the best way to get people to grasp the concepts.

[@BlessedLNQ]

We need an AHT class with Paul in Porterville!!

[@josephlooney8890]

Love the channel! I’ll say the same thing as i do on other channels All the KZbinrs shooting a gun thats $3,000 + with a Compensator. The average person might carry a 43X, Hellcat or SW shield Haven’t seen one expert shoot a stock compact gun in their videos

[@michaeldanchez9530]

Learned something new bro thank you

[@achillesheeltactical]

@@michaeldanchez9530 glad to hear it!

[@mrruthless6913]

Good stuff.

[@Donny_Karate]

When you're establishing your grip out the rip, what are some major points in your index that you kinda feel for and know when it's LOCKED in? For you personally? Tia

[@Broken_Arrow_Defense_Group_LLC]

You need to establish what your grip is going to be first before you develop your index. Once you are able to grip the gun in a durable, consistent manner that allows the gun to react predictable. The gun should have a very consistent repeatable return after recoil. Once that is establish I looks for specific touch points and pressure while I am indexing the gun on the draw that give me a subconscious cue that my grip is correct.

[@welpbuddy4417]

What firearm is the instructor using during this video? Very nice 👍

[@achillesheeltactical]

[@sasr1973]

Odlican prikaz i objasnjenje, koji gun koristis walther pdp? Excellent presentation and explanation, which gun do you use walther pdp? Greetings from Croatia

[@CarlosOrtiz-dg8yn]

What distance to the target should these drills be done? Is that 5 yards?

[@Broken_Arrow_Defense_Group_LLC]

These are not drills, this is a conversation about principle based approach to shooting. The shooting portion had very little to do with what I was talking about. If your looking for a drill look at our video on the 4 step process to improve your shooting skill video

[@Yabbaddabbaddoo]

Glad to see more people pushing to teach principles and not techniques. I’ve been using a very similar technique to teach grip for a couple years. It helps a lot of people understand what they are trying to achieve. Also, good to see you in videos and not that clown Rick.

[@JoeIuculano]

I have the same holster. What adapter/hanger/spacer are you using? I don’t have nearly the space you have for between the holster and belt hanger?

[@JoeIuculano]

@achillesheeltactical ?

[@Broken_Arrow_Defense_Group_LLC]

Boss Hanger

[@JoeIuculano]

@@Broken_Arrow_Defense_Group_LLC what size spacer ?

[@Broken_Arrow_Defense_Group_LLC]

@@JoeIuculanoSorry brother I don’t remember, I have so many parts and mix and match them all the time. I have been collecting part and reusing them for over 20 years. I lose track of where stud originated

[@timjohnson8390]

This generation is too used to instant gratification and not willing to learn to apply fundamentals at a high level which is all great shooting is.

[@pathos1988]

How far from the target were you? Trying to compare realistic expectations lol.

[@pathos1988]

Five yards...asked before getting to that point in the video lol

[@FelixClark-xt1wf]

👍

[@josephazurin249]

So what are your principals?

[@Broken_Arrow_Defense_Group_LLC]

The principal were stated several times in the video. The principle for grip are durability, consistency in pressure and presentation and repeatable.

Paul….can fkn shoot👀

[@Blake_SmithMusic]

Word salad my guy

[@tackleberrywpg]

What are talking about? U talked the entire video and didn't teach or share anything. I get not giving away techniques u charge for. But homie u gave us almost 12 minutes of word salad. It's obvious you are good at what u do. Smart etc. But throw us a bone

[@HuntingWithDavid]

For real. Where’s the bone.

[@koolerthanapolarbear]

the lesson is: shoot at 5 yds, and you too, can have tight groups. oh and dont for get to make a 12min video talking about it.

[@JustWrightHD]

@@koolerthanapolarbearI'm sure he can shoot well but using a match gun and not a stock gun also made a big difference. I would like to see a stock gun used to iterate the differences between the example grips better

[@user63257]

Pretty obvious you need to take a class if you are struggling to understand what he was sharing. He wasnt teaching you how to shoot, hes sharing what mentality you should be taking on when learning on your own or teaching yourself. You want someone to throw you a bone, pay for it in a private session. Listen to what is being said, not just the things you want to hear.

[@tackleberrywpg]

​@user63257 wow. Throw a little hissy fit. Pure weakness on your part. I clearly said he's knowledgeable and I don't expect free lessons. However there is far more effective ways of communicating as an instructor. It's very clear u have no clue what u are speaking of. You don't have the eyes for it. I was explaining.... effective presentation is a thing.. but carry on ... whining
