I'm going to make an observation. I am not much of a shooter. I did steel shoots last summer and fall. I've been doing IPSC this summer. I've had half-a-dozen firearms classes (three of which were Defensive Pistol Tactics I, II, and III). I've also been a member of a gun range for about 10 years (three different ranges over the course of a decade). I'm at the range about 6-8 times a month practicing handgun skills. The focus on handguns is only a couple years old... I used to shoot mostly rifles and shotties, but when I got the permit to carry, my interest in handgun skills changed dramatically. The range I've been at for the last three years is outdoors and private. that means we can do holster work.
The ONLY time I ever see someone shooting off-hand is when the course of fire calls for it in a competition. I'm not calling the poll-answerers liars. I'm just saying that it's amazing how I can be on the firing line (the real one - not here) next to several hundred shooters over the course of a year and never see anyone practice off-hand. Then when there's a poll, it's a huge majority.
I ain't sayin' - I'm just sayin'.
