Wrong!



Ever see flinch in a shotgun shooter?
It's not developed at the bench, but in shooting game and dynamic targets.

Adrenaline doesn't stop it.
You can't consciencely stop it.


Funny as hell to see.
An excellent shooter, decades of experience, doesn't miss much,
swinging on a target, whole body jerking, sometimes one foot off the ground
in the struggle.

Just to pull the F'ng trigger.

His mind has told his finger to pull,
his body is screaming, (DON'T! IT'S GONNA HURT, AGAIN!)

Rifle flinch is not as noticeable,
but the mechanisms are the same.
