Proper 1911 grip

[cas]

I shoot them high thumbs / thumbs forward. But then I pretty much shoot everything that way, even most revolvers.
When I shot bullseye stuff I would shoot with my thumb sticking straight up.


There's no reason you have to shoot with your thumb riding the safety.

..next, we can discuss the best motor oil.....

we have a state level idpa match going on right now - it's interesting to watch the different grips/stances..

most of the guys doing well all vary a bit but utilize a triangle form of stance (weaver/isosceles) when not poking around/over a barrier and thumb positions are similar but change a bit from scenario to scenario...

they're all doing better than i can...
