Is my old injury a good thing?

[ShortShooter1908]

About 15 years ago I screwed up and tried to have two objects occupy the same space at the same time. More specifically my trigger finger and a spinning tablesaw blade. (BTW I wouldn't recommend doing that.) I didn't loose it but did have to get the first joint fused.

I have shot just fine since. I was wondering if that may actually help?

I with you. Not what I would want to do if I had it to do over but I was watching the videos on trigger press. I couldn't figure out if/ how it might effect my motion. If I should adjust my hand position somehow. Part of my brain says I have more space to place the trigger bow. There is also a part that says with out the movement, it's going to be difficult to get a straight back press.
There obviously isn't anything I can do about it. I'm just pondering what I could accidentally be doing because of it.

Your answer to your question is down range. IF the round impacts your POA then you are manipulating your diminutive trigger finger just fine. It's all about pulling straight back - I say this as a former hand surgeon.

If it’s not broken then don’t try to fix it

I have spent my time getting my strong side sorted I have neglected my support side almost completely. I unfortunately don't get out enough to be sure if it's me not being consistent on my support side or bad trigger press on the strong side. Life just keeps getting in the way.
