I've been shooting a CZ P07 for about 3 weeks, and have 400 rounds through it (guess I'm a little enthusiastic!) The gun handles and shoots so well for me that I'm determined to master it. For my first few forays I actually shot the DA trigger quite well, and have had surprisingly little trouble landing the first SA shot. The transition isn't too tough. But my DA shooting is actually worse than before and I think it's because I'm thinking about it too much!
At least 300 rounds have been shot DA.
So here's a question. A lot of people advise using the crease of the trigger finger joint first knuckle to pull the double action trigger, because it gives you more leverage. I think I find that this is true, and it also seems to make it easier for me to control the gun and not pull it off Target. But then I seem to have trouble with that first single action shot, because I am not used to put ever positioning my finger at the Joint. I've always use the pad, but I've never shot with anything heavier than probably a seven pound Striker trigger. Below is one source I've read and it concurs with Ernest Langdon videos.

So for those of you who are used to shooting these kinds of pistols, do you position your trigger finger at the Joint of the first knuckle? And if you do, do you then fire every single action shot exactly the same way? Has anyone found it easier to just use the pad of the finger on all shots?
I appreciate it Vice from anyone who's able to give it. So far, even on my bad days, I'm really not all that bad. I think I just need a little bit of work to close the gap and be able to shoot this gun as well as I can shoot the striker guns I use
Oh, and preemptively I will ask that nobody please tell me to go buy a Glock
