Recoil Management: Relax Your Arms (Dry Fire)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- While covering the fundamentals of a shooting stance, we pointed out that one of the major purposes of a shooting stance is to help manage recoil. This said, we discussed that having the proper forward center of gravity will help you manage recoil better.
However, there are other things you can do with your stance to manage recoil. There is a layered approach.
This video talks about how you can use your arms for recoil management in combination with the proper forward center of gravity.

Recoil junkeeeeeee! 🔥🤣👍 great channel, so much valuable information especially considering there are so many new shooter's these day's. Glad someone puts out fundamentals without charging people for classes.
Big facts! This channel put out information that most instructors would charge you thousands for before they educate you
I really learned long ago with the Weaver stance. Although other parts of my stance have gone to the modern technique, I still use the Push-pull arms and endorse it. My primary arm is like a rifle stock with the other arm pulling back into the shoulder. This is for distance especially, not close action.
I've been snowed in for so im falling behind with live fire. The beauty of this course is I can make it up on my timeline. Thankes Miles!
So interesting, I was shooting last week, and was struggling with accuracy and started relaxing my arms and saw a marked improvement in the consistency between shots.
Outstanding information and presentation. Thank you!
Great video! Very instructional. Me, as a firearms content creator for Spanish speaking audience, I use a very aggressive grip and weight behind the firearms. It helps me greatly with recoil management.
Shoulders are easier to relax. I can only get rid of a bit of tension while doing the nutcracker. That'll take some time. Good stuff.
you're an inspiration for many people! Keep up the great content. God bless you!
I have a plate in my wrist and nerve damage from a crushed distal radius that affects my support hand, and my approach has been basically the opposite. Very tight grip, push/pull, elbows out, and a lot of tension in the arms. It's been the only way I can compensate for the lack of fine control--and to some extent, strength--in my support hand. I'd be very curious to see if your channel teaches any techniques for people with injuries or other problems.
Lol. I guess this is all personal preference. I would say the exact opposite of everything you’ve said here. The technique you show at 4:44 with the raised shoulders locked up tense arms applying tension and lateral force against the pistol allows the gun to have the least amount of recoil, eliminates a LOT of trigger manipulation problems, and brings the gun back exactly to what you were aiming at. This is the classic John McPhee style pistol shooting and it is the the most equalizing way to shoot a pistol across a lot of experience levels. I think the competitive shooting, lowered shoulders, relaxed arms is the most complicated nuanced shooting style possible, and would take enormous amounts of time and ammo to get proficient at. The majority of people will shoot faster, more accurately, with less training and less effort by locking out and staying tight. I think BASELINE should be the 4:44 technique, with there being a “time and a place” to progressively find ways to lower your tension as you get better and better at the baseline technique. My opinion!
Your right, all personal. Different strokes for different folks. 🙂👍 what works for me might not work for others. Good input my friend 👍
@@sway696 totally.
I prefer to train tense myself because when I have done force on force training or shoot houses with sim rounds, I just remember gripping the pistol very tightly and pulling the trigger.
Can’t remember seeing the sights, can’t remember getting the sight picture. Just pressed out and squeezed.
Mechanically the relaxed arms technique is better, but it’s very difficult to objectively measure what too relaxed or too tense feels like vs ideal.
Right.
If a new shooter were to watch this instruction in a void it might seem confusing . But in conjunction with overall stance and a clear understanding of your wrist and elbow lock , it makes sense. Pistol control is primarily in your skeletal management not muscle tension thus allowing smaller women in competition to shoot as fast and accurately as much bigger and stronger men.
Great information sir!
I appreciate you giving us your definitions.
Great tips!
Makes sense - thanks for sharing.
YOU got to have tense fore arms to grip the gun right. confusing for me
Sounds good but hard to find the "ideal" stance or to relax in a close quarters gunfight in the dark. I understand that this is shooting-related and not fight-related but I think some people have a difficult time separating the two. I learned a lot from a firearms instructor guide book called "Beyond The Muzzle", author is a law enforcement firearms/fight instructor named was Bettis. Don't remember where I got it but a search should find it.
If we "stick with the basics" and refine those principles, we never have to "get back to the basics."
Good video. What classification are you in is uspsa?
Do you wear those sleeves to protect from the sun?
I’m going to feel bad for people not buying the earlier Gen Glocks now when the Gen 5’s are the only ones left in production. Grab your Gen 3’s and 4’s while you still can folks
Coupon code for the dryfire mag doesn’t work.
I’m not flexing my arms are just always ripped 😆
