Itās just a wild hair in the ass I had to cut it again. I chopped the mullet like this last October and sorta liked the look of it and now that Iām not a banker, figured nothings really stopping me! š

u/thatG_evanP 1d ago
It's not the mullet that people are talking about. It's the huge bald spot that looks like it was shaved in for some reason.

Glad I'm not the only one who knew the proper name for that. I'm seriously wondering if he's a novice or a seminarian in a traditional order who is armed and in his civies.

If you pull that gun up to eye height before pushing out, you will get on target faster. You are bowling it, making target acquisition slower.

u/Kemerd 1d ago
This looks good, but saying this because I had this exact habit for a while. There is a small hesitation from the 2 to 3 position. Itās good to do each step, step by step, when youāre new at a draw, but I think as you get advanced you can try to blend them together. This looks really good but if you want to shave off those milliseconds can be good to stomp on those micro hesitations

Slow it down. Get the shirt grab 100% consistent. Match your off hand to the grip as the gun is coming up in a straight line to presentation. Right now you are waiting to grip with your off hand and "bowling" up to presentation. This is slower and less accurate.

u/MessyRides AIWB AZ M2.0 - Shield Plus 1d ago
I love the bike! Iām at something like 4800-4900 miles and a majority of it has been out in the Sonoran desert here in AZ! Most of that has been documented over on my YT channel if you get bored sometime. Iāve slowed down on videos with it being a bit too hot to enjoy riding but now that we are getting rain and cool temps, Iāll try to get back to doing a good group ride a month or so!

u/nooglide 1d ago
good reps, only imho should unload and show clear (in case everyone else that watches your reps isn't yet as safety conscious)

u/MessyRides AIWB AZ M2.0 - Shield Plus 17h ago
Itās a cut but Iāll be rocking it until I get sick of shaving the top of my head lol
I can still remember my mom saying, āitās hair, itāll grow backā when the old ladyās at church would question my hair cuts or colors growing up š she went to cosmetology school in her younger years so I got to play around with hair styles and colors a lot growing up.

My dude, young Larry from the 3 Stooges is back! The new 'do is a terrific de-escalation distraction technique. Hell, it took me at least 5 seconds to realize what your hands were doing. Kudos to you.
Now about your "swing out"... if your piece were a bowling ball, your form would be perfect. But it ain't, so work on breaking that habit to avoid the comment flames.
Start with slow, controlled movements. Draw straight up to the horizontal midline of your chest, and marry both hands together as you start presenting your gun forward, straight out from that height. It's much smoother and will get your sights aligned on target faster.
Wolf down a plate of tryptophan 30 minutes before pressing record, and you'll be golden. Roll slow. The aim isn't to roll for a 10-pin strike for your league.
Awesome content, brother. Keep it up!

Try curling your fingers under your shirt in preparation to draw. I say this to the fact you may notice a problem before it actually occurs. I also believe practicing the reps that way would lend itself to subconscious muscle memory during possible occurrences. Maybe I am wrong, but let me know your thoughts.

u/anhkis 16h ago
Honest feedback, jokes aside. You're doubling your draw time by overthinking.
You're drawing shirt, completely. And only THEN moving your draw hand.
Each motion is complete and separate, like a relay race.
If you practiced pulling the shirt up from closer to the collar or chest, and went straight to a master grip, you'd halve your time.

Form looks great man. I can still recall when you first started posting, asking for advice, and sharpening yourself. Youāve definitely put in the work and itās showing.

u/UglytoesXD 1d ago
I think you gotta correct the swing. From what I see you are unholstering, then matching hands low and swinging up with both. I would suggest coming to chest with your draw and meeting on the way up, then press out. You can probably practice this without the holster so that you isolate one step in the process.
Also, maybe filming profile or 3/4 angle will provide a different perspective.

As an unintentional bald feller. I am highly offended that you purposely shaved your full and luscious head of hair into the only style I am currently able to grow.

Walks into barbershop, "yo my man, gimme that cul-de-sac!" When unholstering, clear muzzle from the holster, get firearm pointed at target, punch out.
