Yeah another shooter at our club that recently bought a Darkside with a sight mount Thumb rest also has small hands and he now shoots so fucking badly it's like he's shooting strong hand one handed, but with his left hand somewhere on the left side of the grip but never in the same place.
So I guess that shows the trap of forcing something to work that isn't comfortable to begin with.

You should come up to Nelson for a shoot sometime

I have been planning to come to Nelson for a heap of reasons lately but something always stuffs it up. @sneeze tells me he has a good whiskey stash 😆

I will let you know when I eventually manage to come up and bring my gear if your free to setup a shoot?

Yes you have, yes I have , yes you need to.
The pistol range is about 5mins from here.

I am flat out when I get home next break as well. Won't even get a hunt in for myself the way things are going.

The fella at the whiskey tasting bar at Brisbane duty free rubs his hands together when he sees a mug like me show up, so I have a few nice bottles to sample for when I do get up there.

Always free for shooting, and you don't even have to go to the wrong side of the tracks where @sneeze lives
