Good Lord that was some horrible trap shooting tonight! I got out for the first time in months tonight.
First: Wrong gun. I noticed I had a bunch of 20 gauge ammo in the garage so I grabbed my Huglu SxS. It’s not a trap gun. By God I swear you’ve gotta point about 3′ below the bird to make a hit at trap distances. It’s back to the 870 Wingmaster next week. Maybe I’ll bring the Hugly and try skeet too.
Second: I’m rusty.
Third: Seriously, a 20 gauge? What was I thinking?
Question.. Do you aim (one eye) or point (both eyes open) when shooting? I could hit 95% of the targets when I was younger and used to aim, but this year I saw a video on how this is not the way to do it.. I’ve been sticking with keeping both eyes open this year (have only been out twice so far) and I am down to 10%. *sigh* Thoughts?
