- Ed Solomons has a problem with his latest clayshooting pupil. Paul Childerley is a fast-action gameshooter, great on birds travelling near to him and at speed. Where he has a problem is long, hanging targets, distant loopers, and calculating straight-line lead.

Ed has a real gift for communicating to the shooter. It is really hard to slow down the mount and the pull away when you are used to game shooting.
This is great instruction. I've had pretty much the same problem switching from game shooting where a lot of the time aggressive and instinctive shooting is all that is required for coming towards and going away pheasant, the most common shots. But the looping and crossing stuff requires smoother and slower gun speed and most of all CONNECTION and then pulling away to get the correct lead. My instructor is telling me exactly the same, work backwards from the kill point to the hold point about two thirds to halfway back and from there it's eyes and not gun to the pick up point. So you see the bird and your gun starts moving to connect SLOWLY and then through to shoot,. I'm still working on being too hasty to take the shot i.e. not enough connection time but I'll get there!
What a lovely bloke Ed is. Great instruction!!
I can relate with the smile that comes after REALLY getting it!!!!.... ED you are a legend mate!!!!
I have just bought a new gun and had a round at our shooting school yesterday.
I had exactly the same problems. Well done to Paul for putting himself up for this.
It has been so helpful to see someone else struggle initially.
I'm the same, most of my shooting was pigeon, rough shooting with a bit of driven. I've always had problems with clays. Too much time to think.. I've had a break of about 8 years and I have now found out I have cross gun vision, one of the problems of getting older. Right master eye, shoot right shoulder but my left eye tries to take over. I was shooting way in front of anything from the left, way behind things from the right and to the right of anything straight. Now I know I can sort things out. I'm shooting one eyed at the moment and it seems to be working.
@@MrAbstraxsax Age has nothing to do with eye dominance. Either learn to ignore the wrong sight picture, or pick up the clay with both eyes open, then in order to bring the muzzle awareness into play to apply any required lead, close the left eye. That's all I do and it works. Dont focus on the bead, it's more in the peripheral vision, if you look at the gun you see two targets, look at the target you see two guns. The brain should be able to learn which ones the right one to use for reference and discount the other.
@@TheMoodyedge I've got things sorted now just by adding a thin strip of tape to my left side of my glasses. I can now shoot with both eyes open. My clay scores have more than doubled, bearing in mind I don't really shoot clays that often.
@@MrAbstraxsax good stuff
Ed’s one of the worlds best coaches and explains things in a great way, no ego and more than capable of holding his own.
Well explained Ed. I wish we had more availability of clay grounds and instruction in Ireland.
There are here, just fly under the radar alot of the time
Ed’s not kidding. It does make sense when someone intelligent is explaining it to you!
Loved the video, I struggle with the same type of targets, very helpful. Well shot Paul 👍
Well done with the instructions/explanation
I was admiring Ed's cap as well as Paul's vest.
Brilliant video that. Really enjoyed it Can I possibly get some info on Ed's cap please ? Thank you. Tony.
How does digweed shoot these does he come from behind and swing through? He says he does that o all targets ??????
Better advice than the Sam Green video clips. But still falling considerably short of the standard Ben H set with the smoking targets series. Thank you for the videos.
Ben... is that you? 😂
I find it's kinda useful to have a second perspective on a similar technique
@@acdcjonnyboy Watch everyone and join up your own dots. Makes a lot of sense.
I’d rather have a lesson with Ed than anyone else
VERY interesting :) really enjoyed watching this :o)
How did Childerly Sporting suddenly turn into Shooterking? I did have a look at both websites anyway and will probably make a purchase. ;-)
Ah... The power of advertising 🙂 - / Charlie
Nice video
Wish I won the lottery and could afford some lessons from Ed 😢
shooter king is impossible to get hold of i’ve been after one of there vests for months !
Try Kitfinder.co.uk
What beretta is he using?
Appears to be a 687
@@anonymous6694 agreed not the brand new one either they rounded off the foregrip and removed the schnabel
It’s so good to finally see Paul is human.
Why no safety goggles?
What a nice chap. A pleasant change from the bearded narcissist.
When you say bearded narcissist are you referring to Ben husthwaite?
Hahaha! ⬆️
Try getting lessons from BH. You'll soon realise you're a poor judge of character
Nothing wrong with confidence in your ability, especially if said ability has lead to multiple world championships. There is a difference.
😂
Where is the safety glasses?????Especially on a fieldsports channel...
You must be mistaken as this is not a homosexual bar
Who cares? You are responsible for your own safety. Often the risk to the eyes on a clay ground is shards of broken clay, not being shot in the face or a gun exploding. I have Oakley holbrook and they have more than adequate impact protection.
@@TheMoodyedge wrong it’s an ejector gun blasting you in the eye with a spent shell like some bukkake princess.
@@pbgd3 never happened to me or anybody I know
@@TheMoodyedge lol 100% ive seen people pop shells in their own face...
Someone with an average of 70/100 coaching someone with an average of 70/100. Seems pointless
If you watched the whole video then you witnessed 12 minutes of world-class instruction. I could explain to you why that’s the case but to do so seems pointless.
I’ve witnessed and received world class training in 3 sectors. This was far from the realms of world class for many reasons but to explain them to you would be pointless.
Depends right? They might both miss a different 30 shots. They might shoot different levels of sets. My buddy came by shooting 95 at his local place which hasn’t changed its traps around in 10 years he shot 45 at our club. I went to his for a few years because it’s cheap you can literally point your gun at where the trees are all shot up call for the clay and shoot it as it arrives to the tree like wackamole
@@joegreen2685 blah blah blah.
@@joegreen2685 Cus D'Amato couldn’t move or deliver power like Mr Tyson in the ring - so was his coaching Tyson pointless as well?
