Davids' generosity in patiently explaining gun mount is very much appreciated and more importantly, the correct advice unlike many pundits on the internet who are happy to explain
matters but have'nt a clue.
WE VISITED OXFORD COUPLE WEEKS AGO AND DAVID AND DOUG EXPLAINED CLEARLY THIS MOUNT POSITION IN THE CHEEK AND IT ALL MAKES SENSE .THAT WAS MY MAIN DOWNFALL NOT MOUNTING INTO CHEEK AND SHOULDER TO GET A PERFECT EYE POSITION,WE ALL WERE PUT THROUGH OUR PACES AND LUCKILY WE HAD ALL DAY AT THE SCHOOL AS THEY HAD A CANCELLATION SO WE HAD EXTRA COACHING WITH GREAT RESULTS .MANY THANKS TO DAVID DOUG AND NICK WHO PROFESSIONALY HAD US ALL HITTING CLAYS AND MOST IMPORTANTLY MADE US REALISE OUR BAD HABITS WE ALL ENJOYED OUR DAY WEATHER WAS SCORCHING TOO BUT A GREAT EXPERIENCE ,WE ALL HOPE TO VISIT AGAIN IN A FEW MONTHS LOOKING FORWARD TO IT IMMENSELY. KIND REGARDS FROM THE WALES CREW ..
Just found your channel and it’s really informative. Thank you for sharing some of the basic techniques of shooting. Most people, including myself, where never taught the correct way to mount a gun or follow targets. Keep up the good work!👍
Great video David I’ve learnt that not only was my gun mount wrong but my gun was shooting to high so after having a lesson with a professional my gun is now have the stock lowered and casted to the right keep these sort of videos coming because not every gun on the shelf fits everyone
I have always been a ‘low gun’ shooter… I have four years experience shooting sporting clays here in the USA. My coach has always been a proponent of adjusting my ‘draw length’ to the character of the flight of the clay! Great video to help the ‘gun up’ shooters develop a Proper Gun mount!
Brilliant advice mate 👍 i didn't realise how wrong i was doing it!
Thanks, you are so correct. I do the same thing with improper gun mount and I am rolling my head over the stock
Another great instructional video! At Gulf Coast Clays, our club in the Everglades, Florida, my range instructor tells me he can tell by my mount when I will hit or miss the bird. I like the tip to look in the mirror, it is how I practice my sales pitch. Always works!
Ok Ok hands up 🤷🏼♂️
I’ve been mounting the gun wrong for years 😁
I’ve just learnt the 50% of clays I’ve been hitting have just been fluke☹️
Oh well it’s all about the fun. But I’m looking forward to trying this mounting method 👍🏼
Thank you
More videos like this David Pleases👍
Vielen Dank für kurze und pregnante Erläuterung. Best regards from Germany!
Brilliant advice !
Thanks !
Always to the point and easy to follow....thanks👍🏻
Excellent presentation. Thank you for the help.
I'm here in America where the gun is pre-mounted prior to calling the bird is common place. But I've always refused to shoot that way and have always insisted on shooting low gun myself even though it's much harder not to miss. But from your instructions I'm thinking my habit of just standing up right when I rais the gun to shoot instead of leaning a little forward may be why it's difficult to maintain better consistency in eye elevation above the rib. Thanks! 👍
Awesome. I saw your dad with a similar video and have been using this approach for the past few months. I’ve also adjusted my comb so my eye is above the rib. I’ve gone from 6 to 16 clays broken regularly as a beginner. Thank you so much for the video !
Only trouble now is I get headaches after about 5-6 rounds of 5-stand. Something must be wrong with my mount as I assume I’m getting too much of the felt recoil. No shooting schools in Australia near me unfortunately...
You should check the stock because it maybe giving you a strike when you shot. See its angle against your face... greetings from Greece.
I was talked into shooting on a trap league with church men. I started with my Mossy 500 that I had setup for sabot slugs including a Blackhawk Knox recoil absorbing stock. The rifles barrel has an Aimpoint red dot up top. So I put the modified choked ribbed barrel on it and took it to the range. Upon my first shot I was punched in the cheek over and over again, you can't just quit right? After watching this video I borrowed a beautiful model 12 from another church member with a vertically adjustable but plate. So comfortable now! and at 66 I grew up with guns and never had any formal training but am a very good shot still. But I needed to see presentation, now may my cheek heal, that was hurting so badly every week I would bash it. This will be my first shoot today and I don't care if I break clay, I will be so happy to not come home in pain.
Great advice - I must practice more. Love your videos.
Your gun fit is perfect, I wish my fitter would have taken notes from you.
Thank you David practicing hard on this gun mount and simple incoming clays hope to see you on the 25th
Fausti Shoot.
Thank you Keith please remember you have into the shoot next Friday. Thank and see you soon.
Thank you! I had not shot a round since before COVID and now I have at least one reason I couldn't hit anything on my first time back! I'll be making an appointment for a proper lesson this week.
Fantastic advice, if the basics are correct that’s a great place to start 👍🏽👍🏽
i've never shot a firearm before (tfw working class brit) i've shot air rifles and i own a crossbow i've always preferred a high grip its just always came naturally to me i find it more comfortable because my crossbow comes to my face rather than my face coming down to my crossbow
Thank you indeed David , really good tips
I've just inherited a SKB & now getting into DTL. Stumbled across your channel and learning alot, will put the lessons to practice and hopefully become more consistent. Cheers
Brilliant! Share to your friends pls!
To all that are new watch David shoot last clay shoulder twice on kill point back to hold point and pull super example of a gun down style
Thank you.
Good advice David. I have been lucky enough to have military and private training and years of experience and generally speaking I never have a problem mounting the gun properly. But if I do I can instantly feel it's wrong.
BTW I bought a new Browning XS Pro like yours there yesterday. Spent an hour or two fiddling with all the weights and changeables and cannot wait until tomorrow afternoon to get it going.
Just stumbled across this channel.. This guy is brilliant 👍👍👍 BTW: I have just subbed 👌
Awesome, thank you!
Great advise David, thank you.
very nice
please do a video on aiming. specially for the people who do one eye closed shoots. thank you.
You don't aim a shotgun
If you feel you need to close your off eye cos its dominant do it . But listen to this young man you won't go far wrong . Get a kill point and gun hold point . When i first see clay both eyes open to get depth and distance at hold point shut down my left eye swing through or pull away lead on my kill point pull the trigger . There are some good products out there that help i am diabetic 1 min both eyes good 15 mins later cant hit a barn if locked inside have to shut my left eye down . They are your eyes we are all diffferent
Thanks
No problem
Awesome video! 👍🏻😃
Thank you helped greatly
Fabulous advice thanks 🙏
Excellent video David. Can you please please please do another driven pheasant video explaining how to shoot driven pheasant ms and partridge. I know you have done one before but would be good to go into more detail, especially as game season is upon us. Talk about chokes and cartridge choices, gun choice, how much lead to give pheasants etc. Would be very good if you could do that.
Yes I will try and do one if you are not to far form The Oxford Gun Company why don't you pop down and try the game layout?
you know your stuff
Nice info, thanks
Well said!!
Love your videos. Thank you. Question: How much of the rib are you supposed to see?
An Australian Gentleman on UA-cam said about 2 inches or so, before the bead !!
Hi David, hope to meet you again. I am practising Olympic trap, where should I mount on shoulder?
Hello from US. Great instruction as per usual. Would you do a short on eye dominance (one or two eyes open)? There seems to be some debate when it comes to shotguns. Thank you.
I will tellyou what a world champion told me and that is if your right handed with a dominant left eye you got to close it down . A young lady with the same problem just won eurpean fitasc championship she is a fantastic shot but needed to shut down that left eye . It is a completely individual thing nobody is the same . Been diabetic my eyes can be irratic. There are many good products to help you. BH eye D rail helped me . Keep shooting. your eyes need a solution taylored for you not joe roung the corner
@Antony Dala Thanks
great vid
Great video. Thanks
After the comb touches your cheek do you have rearward pressure on the shotgun to sit it in your shoulder pocket?
Perfect.
Great channel this is.
Been shooting clays a couple of months and having issues with the buttstock badly bruising my shoulder area. I seem to catch my collar bone by accident and its black and blue for the next 2 weeks. You briefly mention where you sit the gun on the shoulder here but could you possibly cover this in more detail please. Im 6"3 with long armsa nd am borrowing guns until I get an sgc, I am finding most guns feel too short. I think because of this, I am holding them more towards the centre of my body and hunching my shoulder to fill the gap.
CHeers
Makes sense to me! Thank you! subscirbed and liked
Welcome aboard!
I watch all the TSC video's and David is always going on about the importance of gun fit and trying a few guns with a professional before you buy, well I didn't listen and bought one off the shelf from my local dealer and guess what? it doesn't fit me and I now need a to buy a gel riser pad, I was saving for my first brand new gun and fell for temptation and let impatience get the better of me, 1st lesson learned, my question now is it worth having some adjustments done to the gun and does it work?.
Thank you Mark for your comments the best thing to do is give David or Doug a call and one of them will talk to you the best way forward 01844 238 308.
May I get your opinion on eye dominance, please? There seem to be different opinions on the subject. Personally, I don't think it matters because I'm not looking at my barrel anyway, so I'm using my binocular vision to triangulate the target as a hawk would. It's the same for archery for me because I shoot "instinctively" and I'm not referencing the arrow or sights. If my shooting frame is correct and solid I will hit what I'm looking at. I do a lot of wing shooting with my bow as well, but it was born out of my early shotgunning days when I was taught that fit, mount, and movement were the most important aspects of shooting. Thank you for your time. Jeff
Bravo!!!!
Great mount..but do you look above your glasses or through them.
Very good instructional video! I got my first trap gun recently. After a couple of hundred rounds of shooting I noticed that I kept hiting my cheek bone with a stock. What is the main problem? I have a monte carlo stock? Is it too short or just an improper mount?
Great video, super simple steps, I do have a question about mount vs fit, I'm 6'3" L/H, recently bought a kofs sceptre 20 bore, which was fitted to me generally, when mounting the gun I feel a bit cramped up / crowded, is that an issue with my mount or stock length?
I have started a little late in life shooting clays "75" I'm using my dad's 1100 remington but everything I'm seeing on shooting is using an over and under, I'm right handed but left eye dominant having a real hard time hitting my targets. Where do I go from here?
I don't like this guy but damnit I have to watch because I appreciate his skill and knowledge
Hello are you doing one to one gun fitting at the moment with all that’s going on thank you in advance
Yes if you give the Office a call on 01844 238 308 they will be able to help you.
Can you make a detailed video on shooting with both eyes open please? I’ve tried it but can’t get my head the fact I have two blurry guns in my sight when looking at the clay. Cheers
nice short film, I have been told by 2 people know Im right eye dominant and I shoot LH, as Im starting out I want to shoot both eyes open, what do you suggest is the best way forward for me, I am not adverse to training exercises away from the gun or ground?
I have seen the gun trade actually holding the end of the barrel and putting the gun where they think it should be absolutely crazy way this is ,don't you think.
A bit of advice please, how can you check at home if your gun stock is long enough? I have recently been told by a very competent shot that he thinks my gun is about 1” short for my build and height, I had a go with his gun and I shot well, he shoots a gun with a 16” length of pull.
I probably should have watched this video before I ever picked up a shotgun to shoot clays. I don't know of any shooting schools near me but there are roving instructors that go from range to range teaching technique. So I guess that 's basically the same thing.
Ok but someone with a different body ie. much longer neck, can not bring the gun to the face they would end up with the butt above the shoulder and resulting face slap would be brutal. Please do a video addressing this issue. Thanks.
Good advice , thanks . Just changed disciplines from target shooting to clays , although I have shot clays in the past . My question is this - I have joined a local club , the owner is a RFD and mainly sells Brixia Shotguns . They feel , fit and function well enough and have that Italian stylish slim look . Do I buy one . They are only around £900 to £1200 depending on model . I have two used Miroku guns a game and a trap gun . I want a new gun and want to be loyal to the clubs owner but not sure of Brixia Shotguns . Any advice would be appreciated . I watch your channel regularly and value your opinion . Ps really enjoying shooting clays , it puts a smile on my face wether or not I score high or low .
Thank you for your comments if you give David a call on 01844 238 308 he will help you.
Choose a higher grade gun second hand my loyalty is italian Caeser gurini BUT MIRUKU Mk38. browning ultra and xs . 682 gold e . Zoli kronos . Look at marrochi evo . Rizzzini v3 or vortex . Or a yildiz pro . Check out davids vidio on miruku and otherr ghuns he has done
David what causes a cheek slap
Have you any Breda zeniths on demo
Hi I’ve got a under and over that haven’t been used in a long time and it kinda stiff to close and open the barrel which is making it very annoying to reload and I have tried putting oil on it but that doesn’t work. Any tips on what might be the problem or just it just need more use
As it was out of use can be that old grease stick to surfaces even you might not be able to see it.So proper cleaning of all surface(l use wd40 for that) first...than ptf grease on metal to metal surfaces(both sides barrel and hinges)...and yes oil will do but later durring regular use
Decent effort but your own gun mount is very much below your shoulder
I feel you should show the standard mount into the shoulder with the butt level with top of shoulder so that full area of the butt plate is in the shoulder pocket
Good! which chokes do you use?
See our latest Sunday night feature
What Browning are you shooting with?
A XS Browning.
XS PRO I think
Dear, your griping the gun with tree fingers and putting the first finger and thumb across the right side of the barrel is quite strange and new thing for me, is it technique or your habit? Plz,
Stay blessed
🔥🔥🔥👍
My gun mount is higher and more aggressive but the problem is I shoot rifles I’ve been shooting since I was 8 I’ve my first lesson next week
Only advice as a reasonable rifle and clay shooter is dont aim and dont stop the gun . Pick your kill point reverse to your hold point just below the clays line use the method the instructor says so i not stepping on toes . Just get to your lead at kill point pull trigger and keep gun moving a little after you have taken the shot . Have a great lesson and hope you enjoy. A E S
to touch my cheek the stock buttplate straddles my collarbone blade (high) any advice? it hurts. If I put the stock as shown in this video i need to move my head down to the gun.
This guy talks and looks like Elmer Fudd on Bugs Bunny cartoons
