It’s perfect sir, thank you. Very good stuff there.
Not sure whether posting this here is kosher, but his advice HAS helped me.

I have a bad habit of getting lazy with my grip and shooting low left, especially with calibers bigger than 9mm. Throw in some flinching, and if I am not careful I am low left all the time. Working on my grip has helped, but no range time in a while due to corona.
Could not resist this chart, it might “help” your humor when shooting.
Low and left if your strong side is your right hand, typically involves three things. 1. Slapping or jerking the trigger, vs a smooth consistent pull. 2. Gaps in between your support side thumb and your strong side thumbs. 3. Recoil management, or just the anticipation of the recoil.
I would suggest try dry fire practice or adjust your grip a bit. How is your sight focus. How are your sights? When I first started shooting it happened to me, don’t get frustrated. It will come just keep practicing.
Not sure if anyone has said this yet… I’m too lazy to read all of the posts.
For a little while, quit trying to hit a 1" dot and focus on your trigger. Dry fire, learn the reset, embrace the creep, love the break. Do it again, and again, and again,… and again.
When you can can control the trigger without “forcing the shot” focus on the front sight. When it is in the target zone squeeze, if it passes out of the target zone then stop squeezing (but dont let off), as it renters the target zone continue the squeeze. Do this until it makes a loud noise (bang). Than call your shot. Call every shot while you are working on accuracy.
Once you are accurate then start working on speed. Speed isn’t going as fast as you can… it’s going as fast as you can accurately go.
Great stuff guys, thank you much. This Community is terrific.
Low and left is typically a result of slapping or jerking the trigger, for a right handed shooter. I would first ask what is your dominate eye and which hand is your strong side hand. For instance, I am left eye dominant, but am right handed. So I have to make sure to get the gun sights up and parallel to my dominant eye, when moving from the high compressed ready position to full extension. I would also recommend have someone else shoot the gun, as a way of determining if the sights need to be adjusted or if it’s more with your grip, trigger control and recoil management.
