Thanks for your great videos. Went today first time ever and hit 13 of 25. It's harder than it looks. Man those birds go fast. Can't wait to do it again.
I bet ur score wld much improve if u get a personal 1-2-1 coaching from a pro like her. I had the same score as u, 13/25, the best back 30yrs ago at a trap range. W almost identical 12 ga. 30"bbl pump two dayz ago, i did 18/25. N back in the old dayz, i didn't know what i was doing. And we didn't have utube videos etc. Stance, the gun hold to ur soft shoulder slit, cheek contact, grip, ... where to initially point the bbl, figure out where up in the sky to bust the clay, then focus away beyond the bbl waiting for the bird, just watch the bird fly, let the eye follow it, then pull the trigger. Relax ur shoulder, breathe deeply aftr the shot, clear ur mind, and repeat... POOL, ahh, Pull!!! face
@@schutendohkji548Yup. I went to shoot skeet for the first time last weekend (with my semiauto duck gun and LM choke). Empty range except one guy preparing for a competition the next day. He offered to run me through a course and explained the rules and hold points etc. Shot about a 12 first run, wasn’t really counting just listening to instructions. Shot a second round with him and went 20/25. One on one coaching made some very fast improvements I wouldn’t have otherwise made.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience. It is very hard for me to shoot station 8, Hi 2 and Low 6. I can break them but not consistently. I will try your method the next skeet shooting.
Made it look so easy. I just started a couple of months ago. I was a good trap shooter, hitting 25 or 24 most games. But Skeet is a different animal and much more of a challenge for me. Because it is a greater challenge I really enjoy it and strive to get better. I think the best I've done so far is 20 out of 25, but I'll get better. UPDATE: both today and yesterday I hit 24 of 25 in Skeet. It was a great weekend.
Great tips on station 8. I had been holding closer to the house and lower than you do, and while I was having success with that, your method puts the bead much closer to the line of flight (after the initial "flash") and reduces the amount of gun movement. I went to the skeet fields today to try your method and it's a winner. I am hitting the clays on station 8 much sooner and with not so much effort. Much more relaxed hits. Thanks. Happy New Year!

Are you. sure about the angles for High 1? If you dig a hole in the middle of the pad so your eye is a ground level, then a 45 degree angle has you aiming 64 feet above the center peg. 30 degrees would be 37 feet high. I'm 6'6" with a eye level of 70.5" and if I aim 20 feet above the center, it is only a 12.36 degree angle. I do like your videos and they have improved my shooting.
Have I missed this or is the tutorial for international skeet still in progress? I'd love to see professional shooter shooting international skeet with Shotkam.
Would these hold points be similar for a low gun mount? For example, would you face the orange cone as if the gun were mounted for a start point? Also, would your starting hold point typically be further from the house? Thanks.
As a general rule your hold points will be further out with the targets at a faster speed and allowing for the gun mount time. The idea is to stay in front of the target at all times.
So I’ve always shot low gun, but want to transition to pre mount. My question is, do you have your eyes down the rib when calling pull, or is your head a little above sight plane and brought into shooting position as you’re picking up the target?
Assuming your shotgun is fitting you correctly, its not a bad a idea to ensure that you are lined up correctly in the gun up position to start. This means being down the middle of the gun as well as having the correct comp height. Once you are sure you are lined up correctly, then you should keep your head locked into position, but raise your eyes above the bead/s to a soft focus looking for the target.
Just one question; when shooting with the gun down on station six, do you still move your vision further from the low house? Or can you now have your vision at the normal distance from the low house because your head isn't (yet) engaged with the stock?
Hello Ralph, This is a good question. Sadly the answer isn't the same for everyone. A lot of people like to look right out of the house for the target while others like to look further out. I would suggest experimenting to see where you feel you can consistently pick-up the target visually. I personally find that the advantage of not pre-mounting the gun, is the increased visual acquisition of the target.
I've recollected how if I point my index finger and thumb alongside my fore end and I point ahead of my clay target, the shot sequence is easy and slowed down for me. Concentrate on that pointing index finger! The eye points it, the body follows.
Great concentration from 0:20 to 0:27 w a pesky fly near ur eye n on ur temple. Pls shoot it instead of the clay birds as it flies away on ur nxt video.
This was an amazing video! Helped a ton
I am glad it was helpful!
Well done! Exactly what I have been looking for
So happy to be able to watch a left hand shooter, as I am. Great videos!
Thank you for creating this masterpiece of instruction. You spoke and taught to my learning styles.
Glad it was helpful!

вы молодцы, спасибо за интересные ролики!
great video and nice guns!
These videos are great, I shot 12/25 as a second time shooter and I don't think thats half bad for a 13yo
Thanks Chard, now you have a goal to beat
Great vid, good hold points to use
Thanks 👍
Thank You this really helps!

Thank you, Lauryn!
You are so welcome!
Top! From italy, 1000 GRAZIE.
excellent video plz made same video for international skeet as well
Will do soon

Good luck ... you are a distinguished professor .. who follows you from the Arab Republic of Iraq
For right handed shooters, does it matter where you stand, especially on station 8
Absolutely Stay tuned for a future video on stances for Skeet
@@GoShootingAlthough the audio was'nt perfect, I really enjoyed your interviews with, Sir George, Kimberely and Shan!
I wish you had included information about timing and where shoot the target: that is in front, underneath, or behind the target. .
"Actual" lead is a perception that varies from person to person. We do have a video of leads through a "Shotkam" which should help.
The little small dot is a clue 🙄🤦🏻♂️
Just learning Skeet, and I'm using a IM and M chokes, are these too tight?
Ideally no more choke than improved cylinder is perfect for Skeet

Is the shotkam something you recommend for beginners? Or do you need to be experienced to benefit from it?
I think it is more of a coaches aid I feel.
It looks so much easier in slow motion...
It does!

3 meters is almost 23 feet. US skeet says 1/3 is 21 feet. are the skeet fields different in US vs UK?
“3 metres is almost 23 feet”. Really???
sorry it's 9.75 feet sill not the 21 feet in US skeet. why does the look point matter so much on such a slow incoming target?
Bună seara cât costă sistemul de ochire şi cum pot intra în posesia lui?
Este de la o companie americană numită "ShotKam"
My greatest problem in clay shooting is determin how much lead….😮
Great concentration from 0:20 to 0:27 w a pesky fly near ur eye n on ur temple.
Pls shoot it instead of the clay birds as it flies away on ur nxt video.
This is Australia 😀
I love her....
جميل جدا استمري
Thank you
It's all good and well.. but no one ever says how much lead
Lauryn I think is gorgeous and she can shoot ,what a babe
distracted by her "GUNS"
Edwardo Pike
You lost me at meters 🦶🏻
Great job. Your American we still use feet and yards not meters. Your husband must be a bad influence on you, just kidding.
You are right!
