You should be able to keep your left hand on the wrapped sling and the gun should hold itself there in the saddle. This does help stabilize it quite a bit. Shot a few stages at the SS that way a few moths ago. Got hits out to 450 yds or so.
Shooting while standing would have to be an extreme option for me to do.. but I'll give this a shot some time. I've also noticed the sling technique is commonly used time and time again... which means I would have to buy a new one somewhere down the line and experiment with this shooting style. I have so much to learn... and some $pending to do.

I've looked at that Raton match.... Oh sh*t! That looks like a blast! I wish there were something like that here in Colorado... on a Saturday
I'll definitely try it though, but that'll require me to put in some vacation time to do this.
Yep, I watch their vid too and I recognize a few faces on there that I see at the P-Dog matches



Good stuff for sure! Thank you!
