Read it and stick to it, despite any of the temptations you will have to try something different. In your case, it's two hands and resting an elbow on your body.
All well and good, except that, as discussed above, this stance is not legal in NRA Conventional Pistol (Bullseye) matches.

It does pay to listen to shooter's in a particular discipline if they are knowledgeable of the rules and are giving you the wealth of their experience on firearms and techniques. Most of the guys I've met shooting Bullseye over the years want to help because they want to keep the sport going.

For the beginning Bullseye shooter, the best bet is to get a good autoloader .22 and shoot that. A revolver in Bullseye takes more time and training than any autoloader out there. Once you master the .22, you can start on the .45 ACP.

A good place to start in research is the "Pistol Shooter's Treasury" book sold by Gil Hebard Guns. It may seem outdated because it's "pre-red dot" but it has lots of good info.
