    Ok I’ll try that again. I’m a bit ambidextrous so some simple things like this take a little work. I.e. I’m left handed but right eye dominant.

    small world, the production company that made this video, Panteo, is one of our local ranges and honestly probably one of the best for actual training anywhere nearby

    It’s a private facility and the members are all super friendly, several pistol pays, a 600 to 800 rifle range, and a 360 bay to actually run drills etc...they bring in instructors from all over

    I’ve learned a lot about many things via YouTube, I don’t remember who’s video it was but I watched a video on slings about a year ago and it changed my mindset on using a sling, I had always had one on any “serious” rifle but never used one actively, just passively.

    I've always run mine as far forward as possible (even before seeing the video I posted). Coming from a hunting background, I'll wrap the sling (slack) around my wrist for added stability when the situation calls for it.

    You'll learn what works best for you in due time.

    ^^ This ^^

    In lieu of attending a course, there are many respectable trainers who put out YouTube videos with a ton of tips/knowledge.

    That video is what educated me on basic sling usage for a modern platform. My current rifle is actually a derivative of what they're demonstrating there.
