Grip strength and recoil

[tek4260]

Kind of a "duh" post, but I have been using a gripper(if that is what they are called) every day for the past couple of weeks. I guess it is working because I shot my 44 the other day and noticed the recoil seemed to be about 1/2 of what it used to be. I'll step up to the 475 and see if it holds true. :)

I guess I need to check my sights before deer season to see how much difference it has made. I didn't seem to have a problem on the armadillos out to 100 yards though.

Just shooting a lot with a tight hold works for me.

Thats what I think the whole work your way up to max loads thing does without you knowin it.

[tek4260]

Maybe so, but being stronger from the exerciser means more grip with less strain and I guess less trembling. :)

That's actually a good idea. You will fatigue at a much slower rate.

A good milk cow will accomplish the same thing.

Howdy !

Try that grip execisre using three fingers on it, and NOT exercising your trigger finger.

Also, if your DA revolver has a flat rib atop the barrel, you might want to try refining you DA trigger pulls skills, by putting a short stack of dimes atop the rib; and try to keep them in-place through multiple trigger pulls.

You can get much the same result squeezing a rubber ball.

Yep, I use a red racquetball.

He said he wanted to improve his grip strength, not crush cue balls in his hand :razz:
