i was taught not to shoot in time and to add a little pressure each time your sight picture is good and one of the times the sight picture is good you will add just that little bit more pressure that breaks the shot. Of course experience comes to were this happens very fast and you dont have to wait for a certain part in your stride.

Another down fall of shooting in time is you may break a shot when you dont need to. Point is apply pressure when your sight picture is right, regardless of where you are in your stride. At least thats how i was taught, but then again i have never been ina gun fight so i cant tell you how its working for me under stress. lol

And yes, the class covered alot as the point seemed to be to learn as many things as possible so you can practice on your own, vs learn a couple things and learn to do them well. I canappreciate both teaching styles really, and wouldnt really want one with out the other.. if that makes any sense.
