"Training it out"
Hello Moonglum,
Do you dry practice at home?
If so, would recommend that you practice a "full dress" training rehearsal. When you do this, you act exactly as if you are going to the range, where everything (minus the live rounds) remain the same...
Start slow. Set your buzzer to random start time with no time limit.
Before you press the shot timer, vividly visualize yourself drawing properly on the "buzzer," in your mind "hear the buzzer" and clearly see yourself moving for your draw stroke instantly, as if an electric current has activated your hands to move for the perfect draw.
Vividly visualize and feel your perfect draw stroke in slow motion - your hands moving before the buzzer sound ends - feel the proper grip, see yourself properly presenting, see the gun coming up to your line of sight... so forth, and so on (see the entire shooting sequence).
Once you have "seen yourself" act correctly tell yourself "That's like me," then look at your target, select the impact area (in the center of your aiming area), and press the "start" button to activate you random timer.
On the buzzer you should focus on moving slowly BUT instantly - without hesitation (exactly as you visualized the draw).
Your initial goals should be to:
Condition your body to positively respond to the buzzer.
Complete the entire draw stroke properly (not quickly - because speed will come with proper practice).
Above all, be patient with yourself and work on constant routines and be patient with yourself.
If you haven't yet read the book, I highly recommend Lanny Basshanm's book
With Winning in Mind, as it is chalked full of practical training advice.
