Trigger slap generally results in the muzzle being pulled off the target.
But a controlled trigger slap is used by some of the top shooters.
Here's why:
if the finger comes straight back (the emphasis is on "straight"), when smacking the trigger for the next shot, it doesn't pull the muzzle off target.
It's more of a simple gross motor skill compared to the fine motor skill of "riding the link" or just releasing the trigger enough to reset for the next shot.
It's guaranteed to re-set the trigger.
Intentional trigger slap allows faster shooting.
But it definitely requires excellent control and technique to be of help in shooting faster.
