Shooting tips for ATA Double Trap

As an International Doubles Trap shooter, 2008 Olympian, SGT Jeff Holguin has a few tips and techniques that will help ATA shooters, starting with hold points.

Very concise and informative. How did you get your second shot off so fast? Did you move the swich to change barrels or does your gun have double triggers?

[@swaransingh9175]

Great

[@aaronlongo]

This is great. However, could you please explain they why behind the bottom right or left of the target for the second bird? (And the top right/left with a headwind) Thank you so much!

You always shoot the straight away. The birst always come out at the same time at the same place. In the middle, you just choose wich one you want to shoot first.

[@Hunter7509]

very good info.

[@Frostburn777]

How do you know if the first target will get to your hold point? I'm a leftie shooter, and I don't know which target should be my first target.

[@Frostburn777]

Ok thanks!

[@Marv324]

First targe should always be the far one. When you're on the left, first target is the one on the right. When on the right, first target is on the left. Middle is your choice. Some guys decide to shoot the same target first every time and if that's your preference then by all means do it. I like to hit farther target first because the near target isn't as far away by the time I get to it. If I shoot the near target first that far target is way too far out there for me personally.

Any idea how high his gun is shooting? Trying to look at the rib adjustment but I can't make it out.

We will ask the Shotgun Team and get back to you!
