You need to take classes aside from McPhee to see what else is out there. He teaches old hat, and your own draw and shooting technique suffer for it.

Teaching poor techniques to a lower standard because "average joe" is a poor argument.

Drawing squiggly lines does not make what is being discussed necessarily true. You're drawing lines on some of the best pistol shooters around (like DeFoor) but do not have a proper frame of reference.

Take a step back from what you are preaching and think about how you can measure improvement: quantifiable and objective performance. How is it that the best pistol shooters in the world aren't shrugging their shoulders and hunching their neck down but are delivering hits quicker and more accurately? You have the proper mindset by wanting to train, film yourself training, and train others. Your energy just isn't being put in the right direction.

I highly, highly encourage you to join the Primary & Secondary as well as B-8 Development Facebook groups to see more about the "why" with what you are doing is incorrect. There is plenty of free content elsewhere for you to look at from the likes of Scott Jedilinski, Tim Herron, Jared Reston, Ben Stoeger, Ron Avery, Max Michel, etc.

McPhee's use of the coach's eye is great, but those pistol shooting mechanics are from the mid to late 2000's and are not doing anything for you. They are causing you to be unnecessarily slow out of the holster, even with a duty rig. I absolutely guarantee you will be able to develop a much shorter draw and presentation by stopping the unnecessary movement of your shoulders and head. These movements will never be more consistent than just moving your hands, and you are causing yourself to arbitrarily shift between focal planes as your head is moving at the same time your hands are while trying to reconcile on the target. Stand up, strong foot half a step back, and bring the gun up to your non moving eyes. You are causing yourself to fatigue quicker and your transitions between multiple targets will also be slower.

Being fully extended out is also causing you to lose grip strength on the gun and makes it harder for your wrists to act as a cam. Put your hands together like a prayer hold and make them parallel to the ground. Press them in and then extend all the way out until your elbows are locked, then bring your arms back and stop right when you feel an exponential increase in grip strength. That's your full extension point. Check out videos from TPC a la Ron Avery (deceased) about grip, wrist angle, draw speed concepts, and holster/draw path. Take a handgun mastery course from them and see your improvement.

As far as training methodology is concerned, it is a disservice to teach people inferior techniques because "they aren't dedicated", "can only train so much", etc. That's a fallacy. It is easier to train people the right way than to try and train people correctly after they have been trained wrong.

Do any of the above and I guarantee you will see an exponential improvement in your performance. I'm predicting you'll be able to shoot with the same accuracy standard but being closer to a 1.2 draw than a 1.7.
