When I started shot gunning, I did mounting drill with my eyes closed in front of a mirror. Open the eye and viola! The eye should be right behind the bead(s). Footwork: Point your buckle at where you want to break the bird/ hit your target. Swinging: Grandpa told me to think about hosing down the dogs; get your string out in front, never look at he hose (bead)- watch the wet dog....you gotta get the hose (barrel) way out in front
Excellent tutorial! Just what I needed!
Great lesson. I am going to review this with my grandson this weekend when he receives his birthday present.
A new youth model 20 gauge pump.!
Love it!
my conversion from skeet shooting to sporting clays has been somewhat rocky but after viewing and practicing these tips my scores have really improved this stuff works
Great to hear! Keep it up.
This video thought me in 10 minutes what people in my shooting club failed to correct in my setting from the start, despite being shooting for nearly 5 weekends now. Thanks for this amazing video! :)
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video Thanks!
Thank you for your time 😊
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Some good points
This is the best tutorial hands down for proper use of this tool
Thanks for watching!!
You are good with a shotgun, nice explanations and very useful tips.
Thank you.
If you are cross eye dominant ( right handed and left eye dominant ) you can not keep your both eyes open. Or you can but almost everytime you miss the target. I use this technique= Keep your both eyes open track the target and mount the gun. Just before you are about the shoot close your left eye. This is pretty good technique. Of course if you have time and will you can always practice shoot your left side and then you can keep both eyes open.
Thanks for watching!
I am as you described. Will try your method.
Well, I'm cross-eye dominant as well as functionally blind(can see but not clearly at range) in my right eye. This eye injury happened as a kid and I force learned to shoot left-handed. I still close my right eye shooting left-handed. Sometimes works sometimes not. I can shoot ambidextrously on either but not very consistently. I feel more comfortable shooting right-handed and sometimes with both eyes open. I'm all messed up. Haha. I don't shoot enough to make a consistent solution to my problem viable. Time to shoot more I think.
@@ocavant i was right hand and right eye dominant but my right eye optical nerve inflamed and because of that i'm now cross eye dominant. I think best solution for you is shoot left both eyes open. Make sure your shotgun stock is made for left handed shooter. Other option is shoot straight stock but that won't be good as left hand stock for my opinion.
@@matti7045 Thanks for the tip. I'll look into it. Right there with ya on the eye issue, mine was "Coats disease" a retina issue that was thankfully monocular. All my guns are family hand-me-downs (Browning A5s, 2000 etc.) and I have no idea what type of stocks they have. Now is the time to sort it before next fall I guess. Thanks again.
👍 Choice, cheers for that. Great tips.
Thanks for watching!
Excellent! 3 tips: 1) Keep BOTH eyes open, 2) Mount to the cheek, not to the shoulder, 3) Follow through.
Same 3 tips work for precision rifle shooting. Keep both eyes open so you can see the scope level and scope reticle, use a consistent cheek weld for consistent shots, trigger follow through.
Same 3 tips work for archery. Keep both eyes open, consistent anchor point, follow through.
Our Club just bought a Shotkam 4. Every round someone gets to use it and we give them the files at the end of the competition. A great investment and so easy to use.
Nice information,mounting a gun near the cheek is crucial to take shots quickly I used to do same . good presentation
Thank you!!
Good tips. I'm not very experienced so I always shoulder mounted first.. With cheek mounting are there concerns for recoil?
Thanks Nice good tips but my master eye is on the left any advice?
I do a lot of cold weather duck hunting. So I'm wearing bulky clothing. I have trained myself to raise the gun away from my body and then lock it into my shoulder. I found raising the gun straight up from the hip it gets caught in my clothing. These were excellent tips and a great video.
Thanks for watching!
So what is the difference if I’m off my eye is off the sight when I have both eyes open ?
Why do you keep closing your left eye, after saying to keep both eyes open?
He opened his eye after he lines up gun😊
What do you think about stock shims to adjust drop? When I aim instead of point, my pattern is low. Should I shim the stock or work on point shooting and muscle memory?
Shims are a great option, shotgun fit is very important
@@StandingStoneKennels It feels good without the shims just hits 40/60 with more shot on the lower half of my pattern and I was shooting under my clays. Thanks for these videos btw, I’m learning a lot. Hoping to get a bird dog in the near future!
I have been big hunter with bow Sam type site
Practice makes permanent. Good or bad.
So, if you shoot right handed but are left eye dominate, still shoot with both eyes open?
Option 1. You can shoot left handed and keep your both eyes open... I know really hard to do. Option 2. Track your target both eyes open and mount the gun. Just before you are about to shoot close your left eye ( i use this technique and it is pretty good ). Answer to your question= i say no. If you are cross eye dominant you can not shoot both eye open becouse you miss your target allmost every time.
Depending on how comfortable you already are with the gun on the right side of the body I would try to shoot on my left. Another option is to occlude the non shooting eye meaning your (left) use a small piece of scotch tape to slightly block the left eye chap stick can work also. Try to position the occlusion out of your view you should only see the occlusion when you are in the gun. Hope that helps
IMO it’s easier to learn to shoot left handed than it is to learn to shoot with cross dominance.
Good tips. Seems you need more practice with step 1 though, when you pointed the gun to the camera you closed one eye every time 😁
Was trying to evaluate where my eye actually ended up!
You never want to mount the gun and then "track" the target. The tip of the barrel should be tracking the target as you mount the gun firing as the barrel passes thru the target and the stock touches shoulder
You should not be looking at the barrel at any point. If you are muzzle aware you will miss because you are not focused on the target
Great channel but if you want to take this further check out Gil Ash of OSP. A lot of what was said in this video translates to sporting clays.
Gil Ash!! Got it! Thank you so much for watching!
Can’t take you serious with your pink gun. 😂🤦♂️🤣🤣. You need sum more milk!🤣😂
But that's my favorite gun! 😜
and you said it but... shooting a lot (and doing it wrong) will not make you a better shot. The gun might not fit, your technique might be off but I used to think shooting more would fix it and it is exactly like a golf swing.. you are just swinging it wrong more often! I like liked a friends advice that said - if you hunt birds, do not start your clay shot with the gun mounted to your shoulder, you never walk through the field with your gun mounted so it is really not helping your hunting hit rate. I got much better by starting at the waist.
Rock and roll! Well said!
Who has a pink shotgun?
the pink gun is cringe
Try speaking a little slower. Very hard to understand what you are trying to say.!
? I didn't have any trouble whatsoever following along
@@troyford7320 Give yourself a participation trophy....
You can slowdown the payback speed under settings. That might help you.
I disagree with u
Thanks for watching
1. Keep both eyes open. (hopefully no cross dominate eye issue) 2. Mount the gun to the cheek. 3. Proper foot work. 4. mount and swing drill.
Thanks for watching!
Do you use your shotgun for hunting flamingos? 🦩 it would blend in perfectly with the yard decoration flamingo, decoys
