The point is it works, pretty much everyone is capable of same once the learning curve is shortened as I present it, and myself and students are living proof it's something that's attainable by anyone with the interest

I shoot one handed pretty much exclusively when training for sd, but only about 10% weak hand, just to keep the skill fresh. I can hit what i aim at within 7yds no problem, good enough for me. I only shoot two handed when competing and when instructing others on technique.

What he said^^^

That and a friend taught me to use my middle finger as my trigger finger too. When I first asked him why, he responded with "what would you do if you lost your trigger finger and had to adapt but weren't ready?". Since that day, I've practiced both weak hand and middle fingered shooting.

I run a couple of mags weak handed at 7 yds every time I shoot, which has been kind of rare since Christmas. I even do it with my 640. The BHP, 1911s I do fairly well with. Generally most of the rounds touching. With the Glock 17, Shield and Revos I'm alot more spastic. But then there are those who will tell you I'm spastic all of the time anyway.

Fairly good strong handed. I used to practice a lot with my weak hand, but never was that good. Some pistols seem to be a lot easier to shoot weak handed. Lately I have been forgetting to practice weak handed, maybe I'll take a smart pill next time so I will remember.
