TRAP SHOOTING BASICS Improving your Score ROGER PACE

[@wayneinzerello1091]

I really like how you keep it simple. These are important aspects but you deliver it in a simple manner. Keep up the good work.

[@kazosuchowski2143]

I'm 'freshman', joined the club this year, shot about 1500 rounds and can appreciate a concise, logical, to the point guidance. There is so many bloggers on the NET, and experts on the shooting range dispensing misleading and confusing information that can screw up you game leading to errors difficult to eradicate. I watched the newer clip about the usefulness of the middle bead in trap gun before, and it was part of the 'epiphany' I had about POA, POI, repeatable mount. That 'revelation' came after intelligent and knowledgeable comments like yours and using geometry, and made me understand that if a gun is fitted to the shooter who mastered a repeatable and solid mount, the beads are not necessary at ALL!. For the purity of that 'science' I'd love to shave them off, but as a practical man I'll keep them as I know my mount ma change overtime for different reasons. Thank you Mr. Pace and keep educating, would add some simple (geometrical) sketches to additionally illustrate your sage advise. p.s. Impressed by the honesty of your score graph :) Kaz

[@rogerpace9322]

Kaz...much appreciated...and I'm glad it helped!!!

[@stellamaris5818]

Thank you for stressing the importance of gun mount!

[@rogerpace9322]

Good on you and thanks for watching !!!

[@eddrosdick3724]

I too am a beginner and your comments are consistent with my instructor’s. I am actually rewatching videos to make sure I get your points, reenforce the lesson and am able to recall at practice. Thanks

[@seabee7071]

Absolutely Amazing video.!! I shot 50 clays with a borrowed gun. 23/25, 18/25. I was hooked ! The next week, I researched and bought a Browning Citori XT. I then had it fitted with a Gracoil stock. I then shot 25 clays. 21/25. The next week I shot 50 clays. 19/25, 18/25. Your video has pointed me in the right direction. SLOW DOWN ! Concentrate ! SEE THE BIRD< SHOOT THE BIRD ! I have only fired 225 clays. BUT, watching your video has given me the points to move forward. At age 67, I am not into competition. I am into having fun. Thank you for a VERY informative video. JJP

[@rogerpace9322]

seabee...with those scores...you will soon want to compete...good on you!

[@assil110]

What you are saying is very simple but extremely important if we understand deeply. I could add one point: when you aim tell your self that I am going to hit the target.

[@rogerpace9322]

Ayman...and your point is very true and very important...good on you...stay well.

[@troutaholic8834]

Thank you. Keeping it simple is great advice. Don’t overthink. Consistent correct mount, don’t look at gun, see bird, shoot bird, smoke puff.

[@rogerpace9322]

Good on you ,David!!!

AA shooters are freaks of nature. Usually your best teachers aren't the best shooters, but they know how it works better than the exceptional do. Thanks for being a great teacher!

[@bobbarsy1698]

What a great tutorial. I am right handed, left eye dominant. I have been shooting with left eye closed for most of my life. I have recently started shooting both eyes open after a bungee cord took most of my vision from my right eye. After joining the summer fun trap league I have learned a new sight picture, and picking up the birds much faster, and a much slower move to the target. I thank you sir for the great advice. Shoot more, shoot more often.

[@rogerpace9322]

Bob...sorry to hear about your accident... everything you mention above is correct and spot on.. Thank you for watching......much appreciated...stay well and happy shooting !!!

Hey, I really like this video. I took an very brief introduction course a few months ago. I really enjoyed myself and finally went out and bought and over/under. This video was spot on with what my instructors taught and was a fantastic reminder for someone so very new. I am so excited to get out there!

See bird, shoot bird. Nice distillation of the essence of trap shooting, the “keep it simple” principle. When I overthink, I miss. When I let instinct happen, I break the clay.

Great video Roger! I've just started to trap shoot recently too, I appreciate your straightforward and no nonsense approach. I bring my 13 year old son with me and we're both averaging around 16/25. He watched your video with me and took some solid points too. He especially picked up on your "expect to improve" remark, it's his new mantra.Cheers mate!

Roscoe...thank you for your comments...it gives me the motivation to keep doing the videos...16/25 is a good foundation to work from...improvement does come with each month that passes...my son is 40 and he doesn't even know whether he shoots left handed or right...we're going away on holidays in a couple of months and there's a gun club in the town so he's looking forward to learning about clay shooting...stay well and good luck to you both...Roger

Great video! Very practical with everyday language. All the main topics are covered head-on and in a way which makes sense. The bit about being serious made me smile! I know what you mean. It’s so easy to faff around and not really concentrate. It takes a lot more stillness of mind than normal to shoot consistently well. I imagine that I’m focused when on the line, but friends tell me I’m fidgeting like crazy and completely inconsistent!

[@gpbuck89011]

I'm a fan of yours. You taught me the importance of gun fit. Use the straw you said. Keep both eyes open, something I have to keep telling myself to do. See the bird. shoot he bird, something I don't do. I let it go too far. I use the wrong choke. Improved Cyl and Modified. Maybe I should go back to bowling. lol That's not gonna happen. Even with the wrong chokes I am hitting the clays in practice and I might hit 10 in a row and then miss the next six. So, not to bore you, I have realized that I am losing my gun fit as I shoot. Thus for missing. OK Roger...the next time I go out and practice, I will concentrate on keeping the gun on my cheek and shooting the clay that seems to go so slow for my friends and so fast for me.

[@rogerpace9322]

It takes a while but you will get there especially now you know what chokes to put in...Happy new year!

Helpful tips, and greetings from across the pond. I just started shooting trap, and already have a decent 11-87 semi, so I'll stick with it for the time being. Agree on your o/u preference, though, for a gun used specifically for trap. All the best!

RJ9 thank you for your comments across the pond...enjoy shooting trap and stay well...Roger

[@nickhyslop5743]

Besides being more traditional, what is the benefit of using a over/under over a semiautomatic? I can’t see any benefit only a disadvantage with having two completely different sight over bore. Does it basically just come down to reliability using target loads?

[@rogerpace9322]

Nick...I think the main benefit is that with an O/U you do not have to take out the second cartridge ,if it is a double barrel event. the other reason is that the competition over and unders are beautifully balanced and swing really well...many people shoot really well with all types of guns ...not long ago really good scores were being shot with side by sides...brilliant question and i do not think I have done it justice...stay well and happy shooting !!!

[@Huggerbear93]

Thank you Roger. This is by far the best video I've watched for the early stage of clay shooting that I'm at. I find at the range I get so much advice from different range officers I don't know what to do. I love this advice and going through the flip chart is fantastic! See the bird, shoot the bird. I think I will invest in some of those glasses too as I often struggle to see the clay at times. I have only been clay shooting twice (normally I target shoot with my rifles) but my son bought me a shot gun for my bday. On my last try, I got 8 from 21. I physically could not hold the gun any longer, closing the barrel was also a difficulty that I faced after about 11 clays. I need to build up some muscle memory. I also like your advice about focussing on one thing at a time. I try to remember everything and not really building my skills on any. Thank you and I will keep practicing. ps: May I ask what country your from?

They swear by Army green. Cheers!

[@thebudgetshooteruk]

Hi Roger. Question on gun mount. I’ve been told with trap that it’s better (and normal given higher stock dimensions) for trap guns to shoot high (I.E. see more rib so the gun shoots higher) to deal with the rising targets. You mention a much flatter sight plane (and resultant shot) in your video. Is this just more down to personal preference and the way you yourself prefer your sight picture to be? Or is there a much academic/practical reason? Love your content and delivery of videos! Cheers from a Saffer shooter in the UK

[@rogerpace9322]

I've got my gun set up so that it shoots a tiny bit high...i used to have it set up to shoot higher ...the way the gun is now set up i just shoot straight at the target...i have found that with the flatter shooting gun my second shot percentage is higher and on my second shot i shoot straight at the target... thanks for watching...much appreciated and stay well!!!

@@rogerpace9322 thanks for the reply Roger, very interesting regarding the second shot. I’m still very new to trap, so will be testing these methods out in the future. All the best.
