Im not a big fan either. But it just so happens that I was practicing this on Friday (subconsciously). My drill is with a flashlight in the left hand doing a search, the threat appears and I have to draw, extend the pistol, and put a round on target, right hand only. This is at 3-4 yards. Sudden and quick. I was having all good hits but realized after a few minutes that I hadn't once focused on the sights.
But for me and my limted skills, this can only be done at less than 5yds.
