I know most people on this site are pretty good shooters so I can give an advanced tip. When you want to check your stance, shoot with your eyes closed. See where you hit on the target and adjust accordingly. When I used to teach advanced shooting back when dinosaurs were running around, I would do a demonstration on how important trigger control was and not flinching, even over a slightly incorrect sight picture. poiint the gun at the target and intentionallly move it around in a small 1 to 1.5 inch circle. While doing this fire five shots about one every three to four seconds. When you check your target you will find that you still shot a fairly decent group. So, with your aiming point 1.5 inches off at say 30 feet and it moving all around you still shot good! Again you can even do this with your eyes closed. Hip shooting can be learned fairly easily if you practice it. I'd say don't go over 15 feet though. Anyway good luck and keep shooting!
