A firm grip and keep the body relaxed will improve your shooting.

Most of us have several thousand rounds of practice under our belts, you aren't going to shoot like Rob Pincus, Steve Reichert or Rob Leatham your first few times (Google the names, you'll understand). It takes time to develop what feels right and for your shooting to improve. If possible, take a course in basic pistol, how to hold, how to aim, in other words, the basics. You'll get there.



The most important thing: HAVE FUN!!!!!
Completely agree, whenever I find myself off target its due to trying to compensate for recoil or gripping too tightly. I usually put the gun down for a second, stretch my hands and relax when I pick it up again. Like magic my shots are grouping again with steady hands.
