Sharpening Focus

[Joe T]

I am headed to NJ for a pheasant hunt on Friday, so I scheduled time today with my shooting coach- great session:

1. Watch the bird not the gun

2. Remember to follow through

3. Cheek weld to the stock in consistent place

4. Take your time

5.Don’t get twisted- watch your feet

He Ended the session with a request for bird pics- that was confidence building!

Hi Joe,

You and Mike 103 got me to sign up on this site. I never new it existed, I guess I'm too busy at the shooting range all day. 

Great job shooting today, carry it into Friday.

Thanks mowin,

I named by business Breaking Point Shooting Instruction so people remember to shoot the target at the break point. A little mental reinforcement along with subliminal advertising. Lol

I probably could use a lesson or two. PM me your rates if you don't mind.

   Sounds Great. I started Skeet Shooting at age 11 and shot my first 25 Straight at age 14.   Stayed with Skeet to my mid 30s. Today,I shoot Clay Pigeons with a few Friends mostly using a Hand Thrower at the Goshen Black Dirt area.

Welcome to the sire @Breaking Point  You are definitely a welcomed addition!!

We are all looking forward to some pics of Joe with a bird or 3!  Best of luck Joe and keep us posted!     

Thank you Rusty.

The way he was shooting, those birds are in for a world of hurt. He is very dedicated. I can't wait to see his pictures.

No pressure at all enjoy the experience. Relax, stare at their head and follow through. Enjoy the feather fireworks!

The process produces the result. 👍

I used to shoot a lot of trap and skeet 15+ yrs ago.  There was a old timer( can't remember his name) that would consistently shoot 25 in skeet, and half the time shoot from the hip. I remember him saying, shoot for the breaking point.
