Luthy method
The Luthy shooting method is a form of point shooting, which closely resembles the Fairbairn, Sykes, and Applegate (FSA) method. Even though the Luthy method uses many of the same techniques as FSA, the difference is how the Luthy method employs muscle memory techniques to make shooting faster and more accurate.

Controversy
During a two-day concealed carry class held on the campus of Utah Valley University in October 2009 led by Luthy and sponsored by the local College Republicans club, the student newspaper ran an editorial condemning the class and the implicit endorsement of the state-funded university in allowing a local club to hold these courses. During the second day, Utah State Senator Margaret Dayton expressed support for the club, the class, and those choosing to attend to exercise their second amendment rights by attending and obtaining a concealed carry permit.
A follow-up article rebutting the position of the first was published on October 26, 2009.
