"Real" OLD men do ....

I learned to shoot a handgun in the early 60's in the military. Back then you were taught to stand sidways to your target, left hand on hip, right hand extended, aim, pull. In just the last year I've tried to shoot a semiauto in the "new" fashion - two hands on pistol. Unfortunately, for those of us with long term memory and no short term memory the results can be seen on the following link:

Hmmm -- something about "never cross your thumbs."
