The mark of a good teacher is not how much they know. It's how easy it is to understand while they teach

Clearly Travis is an expert on sporting clays. That's impressive but even more impressive is his ability to explain why he has the shooter do something and then observe and assess the results.

@jcbabb2 Ай бұрын

That fact that Travis could tell he was over the line is impressive in itself.

@claysnwingsshotgunning Ай бұрын

One of the best instructional videos I've seen, so worth sharing with shooters of all levels. Thank you, Steve, and thank you, Travis. Great work guys.

What choke you suggest in over under for sporting clays

@claysnwingsshotgunning 10 күн бұрын

@@MHFA1981 If you are asking me, I first have to answer your question with a question first. What type of shotgun are you using, a semi-auto or an over/under? If you are using a semi-auto I would recommend a Lt Mod or Mod., or in my case a Muller U2. If you are using an over/under you can usually get by on most courses with an IC/Lt. Mod/Mod combo, or in my case Muller's U1 & U2. You may also want to have more open and tighter constriction chokes available for target presentations that may require them. I'm not Steve Gould so I don't know his preference on the matter.

Great video. Paying attention to the target line is the biggest thing for me. If I can stay focused on that the rest will take care of itself.

@spqrvidi Ай бұрын

My main take from this was that the angle on going away birds decreases as the bird gets nearer the break point, and consequently the lead also decreases. Geat video.

My two friends , B class and Master class shooters , commented on how different I was shooting and said they were proud of my improvements . I have now been invited to an out of state shoot . Thanks a ton for your videos ! My previous scores were 62,67,70 and 70.

@aBigMeanie Ай бұрын

what about different loads for difference distance shots? i mostly use a 1 oz #8 1400fps loads. but for longer shots i use a 3/4 oz # 7.5 1700 fps load. physics says it works and i get better results as the lead needed is smaller and more like the 1oz./1400fps load.

@jamesnurkka4006 27 күн бұрын

Most of the top shooters shoot Double Mods. Anthony Matarese jr and Gil Ash talk about shooting double Mods but Matarese says switch to more open chokes if your shooting under 70 than as you scores improve tighten your constriction until you get to Mod/Mod

If I thought about all of these things, the Clay would be long gone. I'm the type of person that needs just one thought to focus on. This was too many things going on.

@harlowzeppelin7448 Ай бұрын

Stance, break point, hold point, and focal point are links in a chain not meant to be focused on all at once, they are part of a routine to set up for the shot. When you're set up and ready to call for the target, your focus does belong to one thing..the target. Practice and repetition with good form will build muscle memory and allow you to trust yourself so there's no need to 'think' about the shot.
