Honorable mention to JJ Racaza who initially showed the shooting part of this demo to Donovan Moore of Point 1 Tactics who showed it to me. It is used with permission from JJ.
Pardon the rifle fire in the background. there was a match going on on the rest of the range.
Finally if you disagree with me, then cool. But please state your disagreement based on the only metrics that matter, speed and accuracy.

The evolution of shooting is still continuing thanks to trainers like Scott. This is just another reason why I need to take classes from you. Thanks for all you do.

As a competition shooter , the only time I take note of the reset on my pistol is on very long shots or when shooting strong or weak hand only. In any other high speed scenario , I’m relying on my grip and slapping away !
-
I feel like I should have paid a $20 tip for that 9 minutes of knowledge, Definitely need to take a class soon!
-
I'm going to have to watch this video again, but while wearing electric muffs, so I can try to hear what's being said!!
-
This info is greatly appreciated! Thank you for sharing the logic behind it as well as the demonstration. Going out to the range to try this asap!!

Once you break the first shot. The gun has to recoil.Use this time to get off the trigger then as sights settle back on target you should have the trigger prepped and ready to break the next round. Let recoil be your friend. Prep,press like a butterfly.

I’ve always felt that shooting from the reset is useless. No one in a real gunfight is going to have the presence of mind to work from a tactile or audible reset- we’re going to slap the shit out of the trigger. We might as well train to that reality. Thank you for demonstrating this.

I really need to take your classes. I am still a new shooter. Your videos have opened my eyes. They are the only ones that don't put me to sleep while watching them.

Thanks for the vid! 100% agree. I’m new to firearms and I had to learn this after learning how other ways didn’t work for the grip I needed with a micro compact. I didn’t realize how important the support hand can be in freeing that trigger finger.

Best illustration of this concept that I have seen. Thanks.
-
I love watching the POI continue to evolve.

i used to train marines to shoot as a range PMI in okinawa japan, i must say this is very interesting concept and 100% right, this a great combat/marksmanship training that you guys are bestowing. good work gentlemen.

Banging on the trigger, like it was his sister 🤣🤣☠️ I love the way he explains things 👍 I’m glad I found this channel
-
I took JJ's HSM class yesterday and taking Scott's class in Sep. Can't wait!!
-
Fantastic knowledge drop. Slaying sacred cows.
-
Like Scott said, resetting the trigger is waste of time. I just finished a two day MSP course with AJ Zito in CA and taught this technique. Out standing course and well worth the price. 👍🏻👍🏻

Was taught to pin in all the formal classes I ever took. Have been trying to break the habit and hope to take a MSP class soon.

This is the truth. I’ve been shooting 15 years as a hobby, in local competitions and 6 years on SWAT. Took a handgun class with JJ and in 8 hours became a substantially faster shooter with this trigger technique, it was like a lightbulb went off. You think you’re good till you shoot with guys of this caliber.

Amen!!!!!! Pinning drives me nuts and trying to un-teach it is so much unnecessary work. Well said Scott.
-
Thank you for the outstanding video. I need to stop pinning the trigger.
