For me it was my Gen 2 Glock model 23.
1911s for me, although I do almost as well with most of the handguns I have owned.
The video is Daniel Horner explaining and demonstrating instinctive/point shooting.
I do this and a couple of other similar drills every week. The gist of it is to keep your eyes on the target and trust your brain to tell your body what to do.
I guess I’m screwed unless I switch and shoot left handed. I’m right handed but left eye dominant.
I shoot long guns lefty, but was never instructed to do handguns also. I tried switching but it seemed a lot of work for really no practical benefit compared to turning my head an inchSo, am I. Doesn't seem to kick in at handgun range, but if I don't partially shut my left eye shotgunning, I tend to mis more often.

Practice makes perfect.Just for fun I loaded 6 into my Uberti SAA, stood at the 5 yard line, and held my elbow tighter against my body and extended the gun further in front. I didn't drop the gun to a resting position between shots. Hit all six shots center mass in about a 4" group.
Eyes closed point shooting synchronizing POI with POA will take care of that issue.I guess I’m screwed unless I switch and shoot left handed. I’m right handed but left eye dominant.
Your eyes are only a few inches apart. About the width of your hands when gripping the pistol. The sights aren't being used in this drill so left or right eye dominant only determines where you hold the firearm.I guess I’m screwed unless I switch and shoot left handed.
