:iagree:

Top takeaway for me: I'm squeezing my whole gun hand and not just my trigger finger. This causes my gun to dip low and left. When just target shooting this doesn't happen as much because I'm slow and deliberate for maximum accuracy. Drawing on command and shooting the correct number and series of targets, as instructed, takes away that crutch. This is an excellent discovery. While it wasn't bad enough to cause misses at self-defense distances, it needs to be corrected.

I have the same issue, and I'm not using my weak hand appropriately. I need to make sure to keep my weak hand tilted forward, thumbs both straight, and my left palm firm on the gun.

Having their attention keeping me honest was extremely valuable.

Re: DFW West/SW Quadrant Tactical Handgun Training

Where exactly will we be training? I'm assuming the range isn't at El Dorado and Ridge Rd. I'm curious about facilities (read: bathrooms) and such.

Bring both. You should have plenty opportunity to run them. I often bring multiple handguns to these classes.
I prefer training with a full size but I also like getting in some EDC practice.
Another question kinda related, any problem carrying the morning of and making safe at the range?
