There isn't really such thing with pistol due to lack of bone support but your stance and grip would replace the bone support and cheek weld with rifle. With those 1000+ reps, every so often at varying speed and scenario, draw with your eyes closed to full extension/presentation, then open them to see if the sights are aligned. This is my trick to win competitions where accuracy counts so much more than speed. That also enables me to outshoot private contractors, Marine vet, and a SWAT instructor at a recent LEO shotgun/pistol instructor course with a G26 from 3 to 25 yards.

Frostfire,
Congratulations on kicking ass at the instructor course. I really like the way you gave examples of excess body movements. I'll be watching for the bowler and the fishing lure cast during full presentation.
Also, the natural point of aim check seems like a solid practice. I can see how that could help a guy develop a consistent grip and presentation that produces repeatable results. I'll make sure to include that next time I'm dry firing. Thanks for taking the time to cross-load the tips and advice bro!
