I cant believe it took me this long to try bending my arm. I' ve heard some of you talk about it under topics concering form but I disgarded it as something I didnt need to change cause I was shooting fine. But lately I' ve been shooting with a different calibre of folks and my fine was not cutting it. In the privacy of my own back yard I tried it out with a few variations and it was alarming how much more consistent it has made me. I can hold the pin soooo much more steady which also alows me to sqeeeeeeeze the triger and not target panic. The end result is better scores than with a straight arm.
