Friends who does not shoot well

[Adam Helmer]

Gil,

I have had problem shooters like your friend on my ranges in the past. The guys offered fine advice. I concur; pattern the shotgun first. Second, have that right handed shooter put masking tape over his left glasses lense and have him look AT the bird and NOT the front bead. Lastly, have him get in front of the bird he is looking at when he slaps the shotgun trigger.

Good luck.

I agree and I also believe that friends probably should not train friends in the shooting sports. He needs professional coaching, but does not believe he has a problem. I have tried to get him to shoot stationery targets on the ground. He hits them OK. Aerial targets are a challenge. All the best...
