Should you pull the trigger with the tip of your finger or further down? Further down for me is the cease between the first and second segments of the finger. It feels more smooth than using a fingertip.

Whatever gives you the smoothest pull & break.
A pocket pistol, a Glock, and a AR all can have different finger placement, with accurate results

Squeeze trigger, don't pull. Best place is usually between the tip pad and first crease, but it totally depends on trigger weight, pull length etc. etc...
use the pad of the finger, using the knuckle crease causes you to pull your shot

This is why removable backstraps rule.

This pictogram is fucking gay. It applies to lighter triggers. Pull a 9lb DA trigger with your pad and itll throw your shot placement all over the place laterally.
OP, you're forming a bad habit. stop that shit.
pic related.
yes, you could correct back to compensate for your fuckup, but its better to do it properly from the start.

Good general rule. Good place to start at least.
>>32870868
Good place to start normal sized handed, if you have long witch fingers like me you have to do the middle because the left picture pushes it just like the right.

Not if you squeeze evenly viewing the thumb pressure as equally important to finger pressure. If you put all the force into the finger, then yes, the shot will pull on heavy triggers regardless of fingertip engagement method.

See post below yours. Or get a bigger pistol.

You should pull the trigger in whatever way gets you a bulls eye.
The infographs are a rule of thumb, not law.

Mine is just out from the first knuckle crease. Like the inside portion of the trigger is just right on the first crease. Feels good man
