    if youre shooting clays ,mount your gun "pull" now in a single movement swing the gun through the clays path -barrel will blot clay out at some point -keep going and touch trigger-ya should see an extremely satisfying sight of a lot of clay shrapnel. if you miss dont beat yaself up -just keep chipping away till you start stringing hits together.practise is probably the most important factor -it gets you plus gun to function as a single unit .

    ducks geese etc .look out of the maimai pick a certain point within 20-30meters out -do this a few times -anything venturing inside those points is a target -this is usually the most effective range to land a decent dose of steel on the bird to drop it consistently .again weather etc will impact you but persist under all sorts of conditions and slowly but surely itll fall into place .I still miss a lot but Im of the "Take only what you can use school" so it suits me .not to say there haven t been days on feral geese where i cant seem to miss ,but ag ain thats just part of the whole scenario.
