    I'm so glad I made the event. Early on I wasn't sure I could swing it having just got back from South Dakota. A very memorable experience solidified with this awesome video. Thank you Jonny, Sasha, John, Jim, and Elaine for sharing time with me. Let's not forget all the incredible people that made the event possible and all the great folks we had the pleasure to meet.

    Yet another great video from Team TGS. I won't pretend I'm not jealous that you got to go. Whilst we do have some great events here in the UK it does make ours seem small by comparison! What I really like is the idea of so many Vendors attending, something that you really don't get enough of, even at the big UK shoots.

    Incredible video Johnny !!!! Looks like the Longthorne has hit the US market now, with some dealers now stocking this incredibly built O/U. Surprised this video was only 26 minutes, as it could have been longer, but I know you can only show so much. Just a fantastic time for everyone- we thank you for taking time to visit, and shoot. You all have our utmost respect- and I hope to see you next year at the Nationals in San Antonio. Keep up the brilliant work. All your videos are top notch, and keep getting better.

    Jonny - another great video! Have loved your content for years. I used to compete in Olympic Pistol events and one of the things I really liked about the sport is that we could be at a World Cup competing our hearts out and once the last shot was fired and the awards given, we could all go out for a beer together. Swiss, German, Korean, Chinese, etc. the sport transcended national differences and we all loved it. I see a lot of that same spirit here. Glad you got to head over and see how the Yank’s do it. Looking forward to seeing you here again!👍

    Always enjoy the TGS channel and Ed ‘Handsome’ Solomons lesson content. However, I’m feeling a TGS meets TSC collaboration would be good. Maybe where you get a lesson from David Florent? He could appraise the Longthorne’s recoil system / pad. Maybe subscribers could have a drinking game - whenever David mentions ‘comb height’ ‘nice little gun’ ‘your local shooting school’ or ‘if you have a Longthorne, comment below’

    The National Rifle Association Of India conducts the national championship every year. The Championship (Rifle, Pistol, & Shotgun) plays host to about 12,000 competitors once a year. New entrants of these athletes need to go through a qualification system from districts to states to zonal's & finally the Pre-nationals in order to qualify shooting the nationals. There after a national squad of about 285 athletes (Seniors & Juniors). India boasts the youngest national shooting team in the world. It ranked 2nd at the just concluded World Championship and No.1 on the medal table as a combined total of the last competitive year in the ISSF World Cups. It admittedly however failed at the Olympics, though ranked 1 in the Asian Games & The Commonwealth Games. The NRAI & Team India are aiming to change the poor olympic record at the forthcoming Paris Games. It currently has secured 3 Olympic quota places and fielded 15 athletes in Tokyo.
    So my friend whilst there is no doubt that the US Shotgun nationals are an awesome festival of olympic shooting, as u said ...the sheer scale of the championship is so big.... try attending our nationals. Scales will be re calibrated me thinks 😊

    Hello Mr. Carter, Jonny if I may. You share how the lead expectations on targets are so asymmetrical between America and the UK in the sporting/FITASC shooting games. Hmmm? This is raising my curiosity. Am I to understand that targets answer to another set of rules of physics in your yard on this planet? I'll probably never shoot as well as you do, but "tongue in cheek" could you make a video of this significant observation?

    • @tgsoutdoors
      @tgsoutdoors  Год назад

      The targets are different shapes and very different weights. Meaning the flight paths are different, but the black disk in the sky looks the same to your brain.
      Hard to unlearn your natural reaction and lead to a target you think you have seen before!
