I got an American Shooting Lesson!

Whilst at Orvis Pursell Farms, I took advantage of an hour with Chuck Baker, their head wingshooting instructor to help me to understand how to shoot American clay targets.
Enjoy!

I simply love Chuck Bakers comment " you might not like this one but you're gonna get it" Bird hunting in USA is something to be experienced.

[@nolandenton1224]

My wife gave me as a Christmas present last Christmas a lesson with Chuck. Looks like it’s time for me to drive down to Sylacauga and take that lesson. Great video!

[@tgsoutdoors]

Have fun!

[@ryanknapp4964]

“Shoot the beak” and “miss in front” were two early lessons I find myself going back to again and again. I’m as tall as Johnny. Focusing on swinging with the hips makes a ton of sense too. We do all this work on mount and fit, so it is logical not to change that geometry and eye position

[@skeetman22]

How refreshing to see someone giving sound advise on shooting

[@ThatGuy-kf7fo]

Focusing on that small front edge comes back to the old adage of “aim small, miss small”.

[@8ball1975]

This is one of the best shows you have done .

[@lucastolson3570]

GREAT SHOOTING! tower design was neat too

[@JayKayKay7]

I have shot guns all my life. I am a mediocre pistol shot, a 90% rifle shot, and a terrible wing shooter. When I was stationed at Clark Air Base, we decided to get some instruction in wing shooting. I remember this little Filipino guy who would look down the barrel and say in a quiet voice, "Too low Boss. Too slow Boss."

[@mallardcutter7209]

Great video ! Looking forward to seeing your next American adventure ! Bring Ed or Ant with you next time.

[@original5065]

What a lovely guy. Great instructor

[@ditzydoo4378]

absolutely lovely. I have learned so much today. Happy Father's Day to Chuck and all Poppa's everywhere.

[@johnb.6468]

What a creep

[@martinsteven2643]

Between you Jonny and the Clay Lab guys a Shooting trip to the good old USA is now definitely on the Bucket List. I would however have to find something to persuade my wife(who doesn’t shoot) to accompany me. Fishing perhaps?

[@S4WYERonPC]

I absolutely love this content - another fantastic video!

[@DFox-ud3gx]

Johnny Happy Fathers Day, This tuterial was a lot of fun to watch.Chuck Baker has it all on this course amazon you took over on the tower bird I knew you rocked this course. Why because your English of course... Cheers 🍻 Johny great job

[@JRock3091]

Master class instruction. Thanks for posting

[@charlesmurray4885]

Love how instantly excited he was when he said he was going to raise the trap higher. True Brit.

[@williamfeldner9356]

Johnny, we love you in America! Great Videos and commentary! Always learn something.

[@claytonwilson963]

They should come over to Ohio someday we’ve got a good few spots here for sporting clays in trap i’ve even seen five stand were in a triangular structure over at the Silver Dollar in Wooster

[@chrisgrignon3877]

Awesome video would love to head down and shoot at Orvis bucket list

[@chrishickman9738]

10:22 "You started the game" very nice taking one step closer to the tower :) Great content so far, I'd love to visit this place for a lesson

[@ogstopper]

Don Currie talks about laser focus on the leading edge. It works for me!

[@Blondejam]

Looks like a brilliant day out. An edge on midi for what looked like a mile away looked like a real beast! Some nice targets there, lovely weather and an impeccable ground, well nice. Keep up the work guys. It is always a pleasure to watch.

[@stuartcrane9409]

More rabbit than Sainsbury! As my late friend Chris Craddock used to say for the average shooter “A hit is history and a miss is a Mystery!” Shooting is made more difficult by the instructor!

[@dariandunn2811]

More of this content PLEASE. I have hunted, but after watching some videos, I realize... I just do, I don't think about it. I wonder how much better I would be if I took some time to learn and think about it.

[@matthewdeepblue]

He's good, very good. I like him even more after this video. He's made me better I think.

[@jammyjim69]

Another brilliant video. Was looking forward to this one after part one. Unlike my shooting it didn't disappoint 🤣

[@christiancarter152]

Another great quality video 👌,

[@johnskinner7188]

Outstanding, Sir.

[@mrgrinch14]

I love the challenges like the pole one where you can push and push and push yourself. I would be so bad at it but I want to try it so bad! Amazing video, you gotta bring chuck over!

[@the45er]

The takeaway here is hard focus. IMHO, one of the most critical requirements to be consistently good at this game!

[@mahlonfelkins73]

very nicely done

[@danjamison3727]

Sometimes I wonder what keeps you motivated and how you can come up with all these new videos, once again well done

[@darellkettley6622]

Great video, very entertaining. Loved it.👏👊

[@JeffAmberson]

Great video with some good and concise information. Thank you!

[@fakedials]

10:00 *Chuck’s such a good dude

[@simonrodgers9105]

As always a superb video indeed keep the coming big Fella

[@Isaacmantx]

I love the "shoot the beak" reminds me of the "hit 'em in the face" I was told when learning top shoot dove.

[@pricedives]

Interesting to see how Americans are taught to shoot clay targets. Thanks again for sharing.

[@richardsveum8452]

Most Midwest shooters start out with hand tossed birds and live game, Both are unpredictable in their flight and presentation And usually only waterfowlers get the high bird presentation . I didn't get serious into the clay target game until I was in my mid 20's. Youth shotgun sports have taken off in the US now and I'm glad to see it, It's safe and we are continuing the shooting tradition in a healthy way.

[@Bassingtons]

A great VLOG!

[@perrypappous7617]

Great shooting!

[@Plainsimple67]

ANOTHER GREAT INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEO!!👍😉👉

[@petrapani3677]

very good. there is a Richard Faulds cd '' leading the edge'' about 25 years old that have a similar teaching

[@fullchoke01]

Those pants Jonny, looking dapper mate, cg are very big in the states

[@chiefcommanderj3648]

God Bless America!

[@robinson50001]

John, can you guys do one on the Mossberg over and under, don't understand why people don't buy more of these guns.

[@snook1249]

Delightful

[@joeyindahl2593]

My eyesight isn’t good enough for clay shooting :( I’m kind of jealous, seems like it would be a lot of fun

[@vbence12]

At first I didn't notice the cut around 5:36 and I was wondering about how the gun fired when I clearly saw them take the shell out :D

[@tgsoutdoors]

😂

[@NarcisAdrianD]

With what guns did you shoot?

[@user-zs8tb4wk8f]

Really enjoyed this, would like to see him shooting here and his method ,I'm going to try it out when I next get a chance

[@jamesiwrinyoung]

What earbuds are you using for hearing protection?

[@tgsoutdoors]

Custom Fit Gaurds - we have a few pairs that we use for different applications

[@Wienerblutable]

Well the difference we don’t run around would be a bit dangerous with 12 people at the same time, but it’s not complicated. If u shoot for a year u almost hit everything.

[@andybannon7680]

What gun is that?

[@louishorvath7343]

Why don't I see Jonny Carter's name on the 2024 World Sporting Clays Tournament entrants??

[@tgsoutdoors]

Too late after it sold out in 48 hours! I’ll be about for some side games

[@bentleyfatheree1616]

How did you like shooting the CG?

[@tgsoutdoors]

Great shooting guns

[@danielenoiu]

30"?

[@richardprice7763]

Driving between stands...very American!

[@es330td]

"Aim small, miss small. Aim big, miss big."

[@user-yl3rs4di3e]

А что ?за модели ружья у вас

[@aleccolinpierson1233]

👍💪🇩🇰

[@itswoods]

3:40 that was a very American "ass" Johnny, I think all the time in the US is starting to influence you

[@dankruger2890]

hummmmmmm

[@The_Devil_Riser]

I can almost hear Ed Solomons deleting your number for having lessons from someone else 😂

[@tgsoutdoors]

🤣🤣 if we could take Ed to America for a few weeks - we would!

[@HuntinginLebanon94]

Hello good videos i have hunting videos

[@andrewpulda7969]

aim small / miss small

[@andreww7857]

To huge egos meet and are still gentlemen

[@jameswall3522]

Focus small, miss small

[@Dr.guydoingthings]

If you dropped your jaw a little more I think y’all would sound just alike. English accents are where southerners get there southern drawl.

[@tgsoutdoors]

It fairly safe to say that most USA accents have there roots in colloquial British accents?

[@Dr.guydoingthings]

@@tgsoutdoors creole accent from Louisiana

[@elwart0]

Instructors love to over complicate things. His lesson could have been summarized with aim small miss small… Grew up in England and moved to America. I don’t think the fundamentals between English and American shooting is much different. Slightly different looks and just need to learn the lead

[@brianflanagan7223]

Love the vids Jonny but u got to lose the porn star glasses😂

[@rotasaustralis]

I've never seen the point of trying to see the target clearly, even if it were possible which, it isn't. Because of the way our visual system works, the less detail we see the better. The less detail we see, the more time our brain has to do other things. The greater the use of our visual cortex, the less the brain will allocate to other duties. Americans seem to like embellishing the explanations of what they actually do.

[@fanbatcher]

Guy could benefit from hitting the gym. How can he shoot with such a big gut?

[@coreytohme9861]

I'm not saying your wrong, but have you ever seen George Digweed shoot?

[@josephsmith6848]

Stop pretending the British aren't fat

[@ak203]

Frankly, as an American shooter, I find this instructor to be very confusing and unhepful.

[@Udeus5]

Different styles of teachers for different students. As an American I found his teaching quite good and straight to the point

[@tgsoutdoors]

Maybe it’s the edit, but Chuck was very easy to follow

[@FumiTheKitten]

I thought his instructions made perfect sense and I can’t wait to head out to the range and try it.
