fascinating thread, interesting opinions
that cowboy video, BC.. don't look to me like every shooter is doing it quite the same, some a bit more squared away than others, but if you look at where their
feet are, I sure wouldn't call that "isosceles"
most of 'em pretty consistent about where their feet do land, though, and they mostly don't waste time shuffling feet, but they ain't shooting no 44 mag either
me, I wouldn't know what an "IRMS" is, (thanks for spelling it out 9mm), re: Isosceles recoil management system, but I reckon that's what Jarrett is doing in the other video
his
trainee, on the other hand, yep, looks mighty triangular to me
that elbow lock + 44 mag SA = orthopedic surgery
(best stick to 9mm pistolas with that stance, trainee, but that's not how Jarrett is doing his thing)
Keith now, looks pretty triangular in posted photo
(but it doesn't look much like what he wrote about)
Taffin, cannot see his feet, but those shoulders don't quite suggest isosceles either
(go ask the man himself I guess)
my stance (I wouldn't know what a "Chapman" is either), is best labeled "Casual",
but, yeah, feet about two feet apart, left foot a little forward, shoulders pretty much squared to target, feet not, weight slightly forward, no locked elbow, and I wouldn't have a clue as how to lock my wrist(s), even if I tried... though I used to triangle a pistola some way-back-when (like me and Euclid call isosceles, you know, pre-Modern, New Math, go figger); don't anymore, but I never could keep pace with a Jarrett or Miculek or Red Cent nohow
but hawgs don't wear steel plates, nor shoot back, so I really don't quite know what splits speed with a 44 mag is about anyway... one round in the kill zone is generally sufficient, even in south Georgia, preferably the 1st round
now... shucks, gotta' go find a Miculek video and figure out what that is proper called (other than gosh awful quick, you know)
but I am leaving 44 mag and bigger for the big boys to figure out, 357 satisfies my meager needs, I will just carry a 30-30 carbine for Boss Hawg Day
great videos though, let's see some more !
keep shootin', keep smilin', always mind your backdrop, and never lock your elbows !
