Gunsite Performance Center 101
The introduction to the Performance Center series of classes. Performance shooting is the mechanical manipulation of the firearm coupled with unconscious application of marksmanship fundamentals. Performance shooting focuses on optimizing shooting techniques, including grip, stance, sight alignment, and trigger control, to achieve consistent and measurable results.
