Hard to understand why Aaron and this channel don't have more subscribers. Best in depth information on each subject that anyone is going to find on any social media. And I keep finding older gems like this one to review over and again. Thank you, Aaron.
You have no idea how much this video helped me. It made me realize trigger finger position is personal and how to combine it with my grip. Awsome video.
One of the best explanations I've been able to find. I've been trying to convince people of the reality that "how" you press the trigger is irrelevant so long as your grip is correct. Though, Aaron explains it more clearly. Thanks for this video!
Excellent video, I’ve applied this school Of thought for the past few months in IPSC training and have seen massive improvements especially at distance. Thank you 👍
Great video. I just found your channel a few weeks ago and find it informative. I never bought into the ride the recoil technique. Thanks for articulating the recoil anticipation technique. It's what I've been naturally doing for the past 30 years. Keep up the great work. I like your style. You're obviously a smart, educated person who is willing to question the establishment. Thank you.
A-A-Ron is the best communicator/transfer-er of knowledge on the internet! I watch vids by a couple of what I consider top-notch knowledgeable trainers which I get completely and their techniques work for me. Then I watch Aaron's videos and he breaks down the mechanics and ideas even further without losing you (getting wrapped around the axle). I adjust other's techniques with Aaron's pointers or I switch to what Aaron teaches because it makes more sense and it works better for me. He seems to be able to address a wider audience with myriad issues and solve them within 10 minutes! There is even a DOWNLOAD option for these videos! That is like stealing to me the information is so valuable. I have written this before but will write it again: how is this channel not at least 1-2 million strong? No slam on other channels but this man's teachings, thought processes, research, and examples are first rate with no gimmicks.
I've been professionally shooting for most of my life, and teaching people at a very high level. This is solid information. With that said, I don't think you have to teach yourself "trigger reset anticipation" as I feel that happens naturally as your skill increases and you challenge yourself to shoot faster. I teach trigger reset during my follow-through training and then cadence drills. As you speed up your cadence to the point where you can't keep count (cadence) you naturally surpass trigger reset shooting and move into trigger reset anticipation. Just a nugget of knowledge for ya. Just remember the point he makes several times.....your grip is the key!
+SageDynamics LOL! Your subtle reference to men's stronger arms! I cracked up right away and my wife took a minute and was like, "what'd he just say?" 😂😂😂
All the wonderful and beneficial information available on you tube is very confusing!! For the past two days I've been exchanging comments with Cerino Training about trigger control. I finally understood what he was saying. Now you come alone and use a "new" term to me, "reset anticipation". He convinced me to stop "micromanaging the trigger". He said you can shoot faster and better groups his way, after going through a learning curve. He said to follow through your shot and release trigger and quickly pull back to the pressure wall. I'm going to try that tomorrow, Oct. 26th, 2018. (It's raining all day here in LA, lower AL,) I understand that different things work for different shooters, that's why I watch so many different gunner channels. It sounds like "reset anticipation" is another name for "pulling from the pressure wall" One of these days I'll be able to shoot two in center mass and one in the head at 8 yards, constantly. Thank you for your video, I liked and subbed.
I appreciate you making this outstanding video. As a lefty this is extraordinarily helpful. I agree with other comments, he is highly underrated based on all of the training videos online.
Great video! In my department we are trained to use trigger reset. I will only use this for longer shots with more time. I'm really new to the comp game and train with a really good shooter who is working with me to avoid this to save me time and it's been working great.
I love it. For guys there is usually an obvious reason for that. I love your channel man. You truly are a very knowledgeable guy when it comes to firearms. Also, you have are very good at giving examples and explaining things in great detail. I wish that I lived near you so that I could take advantage of your in person trainings. Keep up the great work!
I've been using what you call the 'anticipation' method. I knew it wasn't strict 'reset,' but I'm accurate with it. Good to know it is 'legit'. Great video!
I appreciate this. I believe the only time trigger really matters is when you're taking a more precise shot. Grip is paramout to trigger. That is not a normal thing for a pistol, especially using a combat pistol style of . This video describes my thoughts better than I have been able to. Thank Aaron!
I just started shooting a month ago and have been watching a lot of videos. Your are the best and most logical I've come across. Thank you for taking the time to make these, they are extremely helpful. On a side note, you can really shoot, I hope to be that good one day. Thank you again!
Good Morning Aaron, FYI: After our last exchange of comments, I finally made it to the range. I wanted to practice/learn your trigger control advise. I took 4 targets, 4 boxes of ammo, two guns (security 9, Smith new 2.0) My first box with the 2.0 I shot too fast, holes was all over the target (just as you said would happen) the second box I slowed down, but still let my trigger all the way out and shot from the "wall", a little bit better. I have XS Big Dots on it (Byron Childers is a firm believer in these sights and he has busted the myth that they are not accurate and not good for long distance) and I'm still learning how to use them. So I had a couple of things going against me with my 2.0. I've only had this gun since 4th of this month also, still I've put about 600 rounds through it. My security 9 I've had since May. I've put over 1700 rounds through it. I have green front sights and red rear. It was overcast and did make it the green sight stand out well. I shot both boxes better with it then with the 2.0. All shots were from 8 yards and with the same ammo. Now every time I go to the range, I'm going to keep practicing "your" instruction for trigger control. The term you used "micro managing" the trigger made sense to me. When I was slowly releasing trigger till I either heard or felt the reset, then pulled the trigger, it was just hard to not drop a shot. I don't know what is going on with my keyboard or me. It keep dividing words instead of wrapping them around to the next line. Sorry about that, sir.
Today was my third trip to the range with my Big Dot sights and my second trip using your full release trigger and pull to thee wall system. On my second target I pull my hole finger in the trigger guard and try to move only my front joint of the finger instead of using the front pad of my finger with a 90 degree opening degree opening, finger not touching the pistol.This gave me my best group of the day. I also had a group at about 11 o'clock position. I'm getting a smaller group at the 7 o'clock position. I'll get it soon, after all, it's just my tired trip with the sights. I'll be going back Thur. for another 200 rounds.
Good point about riding the trigger to reset. I have a Glock 22 that I tried an Edge connector from Ghost in. Unless you let that slide go forward with full velocity, it wouldn't even go all the way into battery until you let loose of the trigger. Not an issue under normal function perhaps, but I can see where it could provide a strange experience is you were riding it and fired a round that didn't have a full powder charge in it.
......well I have something new to try. always wondered how you were able to step on the gas as much as you do lol. thanks for the tip. hope to be in a class with you this year
I’ve watch at least 5 full videos or rds data on Arron’s channel, and I’m not surprised his SVI 2011 has a rmr. I’d love to see more videos with it and your input of a rmr on a svi. Thank you.
Wow This is just amazing. simply reducing time to get the next round out. time optimization. This can be applied to most all components of shooting right from the draw.
Great video. Would love to get your thoughts on the extended glock gen4 beavertail grips and if you think they help with the grip or if it's just personal preference?
Other term used for trigger reset is pinning the trigger to the rear before reset, which can be inefficient when trying to shoot fast; hence I practice anticipation reset. I had a guy claiming I was slapping the trigger during a uspsa competition, because I was not pinning or letting the gun reset before I let the trigger go forward like he does. Oddly enough he claims to be some instructor but yet, I placed way better than he did with better accuracy, speed and proficiency.
I’m somewhat of a new shooter and have a problem with flinching the muzzle down when trying to shoot at any sort of speed. If I slow pull the trigger there is no flinch but on quick follow up shots I can’t seem to stop dipping the muzzle down. Do you have a video on this or any helpful tips? Thanks
Jesus christ this guys mannerisms and vernacular remind me so much of my brother. I feel like I literally just watched my brother teach me about trigger control. P.s. this video was fantastic
This channel is highly underrated. The amount of subscribers does not reflect quality of content. Very informative and consistent
I agree. Just found SageDynamics and awesome videos.
Aaron is literally giving away some of the best information, for free here.
"For guys there's an obvious reason for that" that made me laugh so hard coming from such a serious dude
"One arm is generally stronger than the other, and for guys there's usually an obvious reason for that." LOL I see what you did there...
🤣😄😄😄😄🤣🤣
So wait... women dont masturbate? Lmfao
😂😂😂
Scale difference between baked bean and an egg plant lol
I guess he doesn't know the women I know...
Okay, that's the best explanation I've ever experienced. Most thorough. Most logical. Easiest for me to understand. Thank you for such a cool video!
Couldn't have explained my experience better!
"To get them to stop doing whatever caused me to shoot them in the first place" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I like this guy
Hard to understand why Aaron and this channel don't have more subscribers. Best in depth information on each subject that anyone is going to find on any social media.

Damn you got a fast finger! And your groups are amazing for that speed!
Excellent video, I’ve applied this school
Of thought for the past few months in IPSC training and have seen massive improvements especially at distance. Thank you 👍
"For guys there's an obvious reason for that."
.....wait a minute, I think that may have been a dick joke.

Your subject matter knowledge, enthusiasm, and ability to teach is absolutely incredible.

This is the most awesome / brilliant explanation I have ever seen, and that is irrespective of the specific content!
+SageDynamics LOL! Your subtle reference to men's stronger arms! I cracked up right away and my wife took a minute and was like, "what'd he just say?" 😂😂😂
Great instruction. One of the best if not the best instructions on trigger control. Thank you.
Man i love your shirt. It means the world to me Christian here from Egypt. You definitely put a smile on my face
By far best trigger control video I've seen.

That was an interesting and fresh approach on a critically important yet often misunderstood aspects of marksmanship. Very well done.
Aaron , your context is head and shoulders above many and I mean many, instruction videos I have watched.
Awesome video brother as always I love the way you explain and exercise the concept of what your telling us thank you
This has helped me tremendously. Thanks Aaron.
I appreciate you making this outstanding video. As a lefty this is extraordinarily helpful. I agree with other comments, he is highly underrated based on all of the training videos online.
Thank you very much for this video. Like all of your videos - long, but very thorough and informative.
Why is it that the more useful and practical a channel is the more YT shadow bans it?
Brilliant content. Best shooting info on UA-cam for sure.
Dude!! You're a BEAST! Some of those scenes looked like you were shooting a full auto! One day I might be half as fast as you. Great video.
Great video! In my department we are trained to use trigger reset. I will only use this for longer shots with more time. I'm really new to the comp game and train with a really good shooter who is working with me to avoid this to save me time and it's been working great.
Great video Aaron right when I needed it.
Great information as usual. This channel is a very valuable resource...thank you.
I always rode the reset, never thought there was any proper alternative. Very informative.
Detailed yet not overly drawn out
I love it. For guys there is usually an obvious reason for that. I love your channel man. You truly are a very knowledgeable guy when it comes to firearms. Also, you have are very good at giving examples and explaining things in great detail. I wish that I lived near you so that I could take advantage of your in person trainings. Keep up the great work!
Excellent video! Informative as always.
very informative! exactly what I need to learn/practice. thank you
Once again, GREAT, Informational packed Video..... Thank You Sir!
I've been using what you call the 'anticipation' method. I knew it wasn't strict 'reset,' but I'm accurate with it. Good to know it is 'legit'. Great video!
I wonder how many x300's Aaron has?
Everyone who has a handgun should watch this, he awesome
Dude. Another excellent video.Thanks again.
This vids are GOLD! Thank you sir
Great video as always! Love the subtle quips ;)

chad davis I’m a month in and I’m nailing targets and grouping very well. These guys on UA-cam are awesome for that I’d still be low and to the left.
THANK YOU for defining what Slapping the trigger means!
Never thought of using trigger reset anticipation, great tips

Makes sense, great video bro. Thanks.
Don’t usually comment on videos but damn this guy is on point!. Need to go train with this guy in person.
"For guys there's an obvious reason for that" You're not the only one that's ambidextrous, teddy brosevelt

You are on the spot my man....
Outstanding tutorial accurate and informative
Awesome amount of info. on trigger control.
......well I have something new to try. always wondered how you were able to step on the gas as much as you do lol. thanks for the tip. hope to be in a class with you this year
New Sub because this video & no doubt future videos are & will be phenomenal instruction!
I’ve watch at least 5 full videos or rds data on Arron’s channel, and I’m not surprised his SVI 2011 has a rmr. I’d love to see more videos with it and your input of a rmr on a svi. Thank you.
Clearly a complete view with all proven angles. Great
Good stuff. I have found that when I was set with my grip/stance the trigger was less important.
Wow This is just amazing. simply reducing time to get the next round out. time optimization. This can be applied to most all components of shooting right from the draw.
great content, thank you for sharing.
Great video. Would love to get your thoughts on the extended glock gen4 beavertail grips and if you think they help with the grip or if it's just personal preference?
Best. Damn. Gun. Channel. On. UA-cam. Period.
Thanks for the great tips, Aaron!! New subscriber!
Great Video Thanks Aaron.. 👍

Absolutely fantastic
Here because mil-spec MOJO mentioned this guy. Feel like I stumbled upon a long lost hidden treasure trove of free knowledge
couple a years later, still great info!
Great lesson! Heading to the range brother…
Fantastic vid.
Awesome video! Can you tell me what holster that is? thanks
Great explanation.
Lmaooooo. . you had me at the one arm stronger comment.
As usual great stuff.
Love your trigger video
I’m somewhat of a new shooter and have a problem with flinching the muzzle down when trying to shoot at any sort of speed. If I slow pull the trigger there is no flinch but on quick follow up shots I can’t seem to stop dipping the muzzle down. Do you have a video on this or any helpful tips? Thanks
Great Video Brother!
Great video!
Dat one handed rapid fire doe!!!!!!
William Sack Oh the accuracy! That poor piece of cardboard! Lmao dudes a fuckin monster!
Aaron,
What's a good place to find books on shooting and shooting fundamentals? Amazon or some other store?
Thank you
Been waiting for this video from you! I watch them all, wish you were closer so I could attend a class!
Jesus christ this guys mannerisms and vernacular remind me so much of my brother. I feel like I literally just watched my brother teach me about trigger control. P.s. this video was fantastic
Aaron what do you think about comps on handguns? I can't help but notice everyone is doing something called the "Rowland Special"
"Finger placement is personal". Great video.
This made me lol cause I'm a pervert =P
Thats what she said...
Love the Christian shirt. Have the same one myself. Great instructional shooting video. Liked & subscribed!
I agree with you. Shooting a double action revolver for years conditions you for this.
Controlled/stabilized bump fire almost...not exactly, but almost...I like it, trying this weekend.
Hi Aaron, follow and like your video's great info, are you using stock triggers in you glocks ?
