Hi
I would appreciate some advice based on others experience. I am lucky that there are two different coaches, both equally respectable, an equal distance from me and so i have lessons from both. When i bought my gun (from neither)i was advised to have it for ¾ months and then look to have it possibly fit once i was used to it, i know that in itself that is open to debate but sadly i haven't yet mastered time travel so there is nothing i can do about it.
The conflicting advice that i have been given is that one coach who is a Gunsmith has said that Gunfit is important and really should have been done at the outset but should be done sooner rather than later to avoid muscle memory of 'bad' habits and compromises. The other coach who is CPSA qualifies has somewhat pooh poohed this idea saying that gunfit isn't important and developing a consistent (if slightly un natural) gun mount is more important...
Obviously i can see the conflict of interest in both instances, although i do trust their conviction, I would appreciate a consensus of opinion.
Thanks
