Thank you for the support Bill, hugely appreciated!!👊👊👊

Well..........???

@@hownhallshooting I did hit some, but still missing behind quite often. Find I need to almost double the lead that I would naturally want to give it. Gun speed or timing?

Thanks Mark, glad you enjoyed our show!! and thank you for the very good question. Personally, I would apply the "Pull-away" for flatter loopers...early mount on, away, then shoot. With steeper loops, I would probably apply the box/ rectangle approach, after seeing a bird, set your hold point, to enable a mount underneath, just before the bird peaks. From there, you'll pull through/ away, creating that bottom left or indeed right shot, depending on the direction of the target!! I hope this makes sense, best of luck with your practice. Very best, Simon.

@@hownhallshooting That makes perfect sense Simon. Much appreciated and looking forward to the next show👍

Thanks Gerard, very kind sir!! The SP1 is a lovely robust gun and continues to be incredibly popular. A fabulous all-rounder for the person that wants a one-gun-for-all. I prefer Beretta over Browning etc because of their maneuverability...Beretta is a Ferrari, Browning is a Range Rover... both beautiful in their own right, but handle very differently (although i'd prefer a Rangie to drive!!) Being on the larger side, I suppose I should favour thicker and heavy, but I like the thinner profile of the Beretta and indeed that I can shoot calmly and slowly without much effort/ labour!! Take time to adjust, as it will initially feel different. I wouldn't mind betting though, that once you've made friends, it will serve you well!! Very best, Simon👍👍👍

@@hownhallshooting Thank you Simon as I’ve said I’ve shot Brownings mirokus for years but liked the feeling of the SP1 sporter the only thing I’m a big worried about is I shoot DTL More than sporting But I think once I get used to the beretta it should be all good The Beretta Sporter feels a bit bulkier than the field model Which suits me better thanks for posting a great video And yes I’d like the price of a Ferrari in my bank 🏦 account 😊😊😊😊😊

👊👊👊🙏

As long as I get my dinner!!!!!!!!!!😂Thank you for watching Neil, very much appreciated!✊

Dear Nemesis, its on the list!!! albeit in the next couple of months, probably with a sim Grouse shoot!! Thank you very much indeed for the support, its viewers like you that make this channel so very special. Best, Simon.

Thank you for the kind comment Mark, I'm pleased you've enjoyed this episode. Forgive me in advance as I'm obviously not clear on your novice status, but take a look at our other mini series " Basics" and in addition, look at the stand-alone episode of Mount practice pt 1. You may find these of some small help. Apologies if these are behind you!!! Thank you again!👍👍👍

Thank you for your kind comment Rob and your suggestion is very apt. I will indeed incorporate this into our next filmed episode (we have a couple in the bank) However, just for clarity, on this episode i shot with Hull Comp X 21g 7.5 shot, through 3 quarter chokes on both barrels with a 25yr old Beretta 686S. The distance on the large looper is around 35 yards. Thank you again, very best, Simon.

@@hownhallshooting Simon, I have a couple of 682 Beretta's from the '90's and they're two of my favorite shotguns. I hand load 24 g 7.5 or 8 shot. If I were to win the lottery, I'd love to come to GB and shoot a variety of your amazing sporting courses.

@@rob-nb7oc That is kind Rob, where are you based? I have a 682 gold E from 1991, still going strong...unlike its owner!!!!!! I hope you win the lottery!🙏

@@hownhallshooting Originally from Michigan, Simon, but I've lived in Florida since 2011. Great sporting clays shooting year round.

Thank you for watching the show Troy and to answer your question, Firstly, I think its important to be sure where you first "Pick-up" the bird. If for what ever reason you are seeing it late, then yes, mount under the clay just before the peak, and exercise the "Box" approach. If the clay is high right, you are pulling away/ through to low left, obviously apply the opposite for alternative direction. If the loop is flatter, then sometimes an early mount on to the bottom of the clay, and pull-away will do the job! I hope this answers best you question, good luck with your practice!✊✊✊

Good evening Anthony.....I used to know a bloke with the same name, he was a devastating shot, and with a hammer gun!!! For ESP I would use half/half or 3 quarter and 3 quarter! Thank you very much for watching the show.👍👍👍

Indeed DFox, when the wind blows, the targets will vary..!!! sometimes fun and sometimes not so!! Thank you for watching the show.👍👍

You took the word out of my mouth Ian!!!!!!! filming this in about three weeks time! thanks for watching the show!👊👊👊

Firstly, thank you for watching the show! The gun used is a Beretta 686S. Its probably 25 yrs old now, but a beautiful workhorse and utterly reliable!!👊

@@hownhallshooting thank you!
