Thanks ... I really needed to watch that. I think sometimes I can find myself readjusting my grip while shooting. Definitely one of those things that if you can get it right in the beginning the other mechanics will line up.

A great video on a problem that a lot of new shooters have. We saw this a lot on the firing range at the police academy. Once the proper grip and proper sight alignment were established the only thing that applied pressure was the finger to "press" the trigger to the rear until it fires. We would coach them to push with the strong hand, pull back with the weak hand, front sight, "press". A real give away that they were applying pressure with their whole hand is when their groups went towards the weak hand.

I think this a problem I run into myself sometimes. I may have to run videos the next time I get to go out and shoot.
