Book Reviews of Surgical Speed Shooting: How To Achieve High-Speed Marksmanship In A Gunfight
Book Review: Excellent book on handling your handgun
Summary: 5 Stars
Coming to this discipline as a shooter, but one who was completely untrained I had no idea how much there was to learn. This book starts you at the beginning and will help you progress. It has clear pictures and illustrations and I would recommend it to anybody. If you are an inexperienced shooter you would not be overwhelmed by this book because it starts with the grip and progresses from there. Very HelpfulBook Review: Broaden your shooting technique horizons
Summary: 5 Stars
Andy Stanford concisely and comprehensively gives the reader the tools to understand and adopt Modern Isosceles shooting technique. Instructions are clear and very detailed regarding grip, stance, aiming, trigger control, and follow through (all of these topics justifiably warranting their own chapters). Stanford provides a comparison of Weaver and Modern Iso.Gunhandling (administrative and tactical) skills are discussed with the focus on the self-loader (Glock is the predominant pistol pictured), while wheelgun skills are, happily, not left out. Presentation and ready positions are also described well. I found it interesting that he has a entire chapter devoted to one-handed shooting technique -- a valid topic since we're talking about combat pistol shooting.
I had been to school, been indoctrinated, espoused Weaver, and thought anybody who shot Isosceles was an unwashed heathen. Then, after opening my mind a little, a whole new world opened up with this book. Stanford describes his own journey from Gunsite-trained Weaver shooter to Modern Isosceles proponent and argues effectively for Iso's more advanced techniques. This book is an eye-opener and I recommend it.
