Every hole in the target tells a story—and Shrek’s reading them all.
In this week’s SOB TV video, John “Shrek” McPhee walks through real student targets from the range and shows how to spot the most common shooter errors just by looking at the hits. Using his Eye Dominance Range Card, he breaks down dozens of examples, calling out:
🔧 Stance issues (tall stance, no lean)
👎 Wobble from poor shoulder control
👁️ Eye dominance mistakes
👍 Thumb drag, bad grip, and index errors
🎯 Super push vs. sloppy posture
If you’ve ever wondered why your group is low, left, high, or off the tape entirely—this is the breakdown you need. Shrek explains what went wrong, what to fix, and how to get your rounds back in the circle.
Pocket-sized knowledge. Real-world results.
