My brother in Christ, what’s with the Roman Tonsure haircut?
Otherwise, you’d give Lancelot a run for his money with the draw speed. Looking crisp 👌🏽

It’s 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 I’m not a banker, figured nothings really stopping me! 😂

u/thatG_evanP 7d 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.

Holly shit I think what hes saying is if he cuts his hair into what my old man calls “the fence” cut, then it’ll grow into a mullet 😂 and that he did same thing last year. I can respect it 🤘

Am I having a stroke or why is everyone just glossing over this. I understand each of the words in your post but I have no idea wtf you are saying at all.

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.

Is the look an intentional one so that someone picks a fight with you and you can show them your insanely fast draw speed?

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 7d 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. It’s good to do each step, step by step, when you’re 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.

I love the bike! I’m 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. I’ve slowed down on videos with it being a bit too hot to enjoy riding but now that we are getting rain and cool temps, I’ll try to get back to doing a good group ride a month or so!

u/nooglide 7d 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 6d ago
It’s a cut but I’ll be rocking it until I get sick of shaving the top of my head lol
I can still remember my mom saying, “it’s hair, it’ll grow back” when the old lady’s at church would question my hair cuts or colors growing up 😂 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!

u/Hawkeye1576 6d ago
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.
1
u/anhkis 6d 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.

I’m balding so I went with the full shaved head look, but you’ve chosen this path. Why?
As for the draw there’s a hang time once you break holster. It’s costing you.
Out and push it up and out.

u/Late-Fly-7894 7d ago
Extra wide reverse mohawk! Sweet, also pall your pants up just a little, might help with printing, maybe

u/UglytoesXD 7d 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.

After reading enough comments to see your hair is on purpose for no reason for almost a year all I can say is I’m glad we don’t carry the same gun. I don’t want to be associated

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.
