    Pron,

    I would do everything everyone has said but when you are practicing dry firing, make sure you hang a target on the wall or somewhere and that way you can focus on training your eye while doing the rest of the fundamentals

    That’s a really good suggestion. I normally just pick a wall plate, some object in the room I’m in and acquire a sight picture using that - but I can see how adding a small paper target could help condition the eye.

    You should get a gold Star! :)

    Also, make sure your body is leaning a little forward in a good athletic stance. It can be natural, for some reason, to lean back a little. {I see this frequently at the range.} Sometimes this can contribute to what you are seeing.

    This helped me a lot. Pricey, but after two weeks of dry fire with it, huge improvement at the range. Hang a target on the wall 15-20 ft away. It will flash on the target for an instant and show you the POI. It will also reveal any trigger jerking or flinching with a slash of light instead of a dot. I've had mine 3 years. Still works great in all my 9mm. Heck I bought one in 45 ACP too.
