What is FITASC? Ft. Ed Solomons

[@amessad]

Ed is the definition of a coach! .... no bs directly to the point in a lunguage that anybody who shoots can understand!!!

[@MichaelYarde]

I say this every time he’s in a video, but Ed is such a good coach. He communicates his methods so well. I just hope his diary is open again next year so I can book a lesson or two 😂

[@arthur703]

Ed, a excellent teacher. Thanks for the video.

[@MR12GAUGE]

Ed seems like a very likeable chap and his passion comes across in his teachings. Good stuff guys

[@Jakeyboy628]

At my club there is always so much confusion around certain discipline's and rules. Would be great to see more of ed shooting with TGS 👍

[@richgrose3308]

My son and I get so much from these two. Thank you gentlemen.

A couple of days ago I became a member of this KZbin channel. Today I finally scored a date on Tinder. Coincidence? I think not

[@KH-dq2en]

your channel is a big win for clayshooters !!

[@damham5689]

Ive been shooting sporting clays for 30 years and enjoy it very much even though Im not the greatest. Before that though I learned shooting clays as a way to help when hunting, so gun was always held in the way you would in the field hunting. And Ive yet to see anyone walk a field hunting pheasant with a gun shouldered. If I did I doubt Id want to hunt with them. Id like to see someone who just shoots pro sporting clay shooter would do in a hunt without shoulder ready and knowing before hand were, how fast, direction and from what direction the target is coming from.

[@jonathanhart262]

I’m new to this. And fitasc is what I’m aiming at. It’s awesome.

[@DFox-ud3gx]

I shot fitasc for the first time 2 weeks ago loved it. I'm talking another crack at fitasc in 3 weeks. Thanks for your making these shows.

[@xBobby]

Ed is the freaking man. I hope he comes to the states again soon. I gotta meet him

[@neodutch]

That Longthorne is working nice for you Jonny.

[@Redlegwar]

Great videos guys! Love Ed’s teaching style!

[@1valg]

Brilliant video! I believe its 25 cm from the top of the shoulder to the chest. ....the safety on that Longthorne gets its exercise well enough 😉 Anyway. Could you do a special on Ed Solomons K-80? Perhaps a little comparison between the two guns?

[@matthewlardner5328]

Clear, concise, no BS and easy to understand. Not a narcissistic ego to heard or tattoo to be seen anywhere 🙏🏻

[@Imiela100]

Hi Ed, I think I've learn't a lot from this video, would love pop and see you mate

[@TargetBreaker1234]

great content Jonny! New gun looks like it fits like a glove!

[@johngregory8576]

Another fascinating video, I finally get the intricacies of FITASC. However, as I can barely hit anything at Sporting I think I'll pass on this 🤣 I do like Ed's style and young Mr. Carter really seems to be coming along!

[@danhill6333]

Boy I got my work cut out for me. You look to be shooting very well Jonny. Looking forward to a lesson with Ed. Then maybe I have a chance of bettering you. Great video. Much appreciated. 👍👍

[@tgsoutdoors]

🤞🏼 you can get over soon mate

[@KathrynLiz1]

We shoot 'casual' sporting at our general (pistol, rifle and shotgun) shooting club....and we have always shot 'gun down'... it used to be compulsory, but lately I have noticed a lot shoot with gun mounted...... I was taught 'gun down' so usually shoot that way. Due to covid and advanced age (80 now) I am not getting any better, but I can work on that. Watching these videos is instructive.... 🙂

[@funkla65]

Jonny getting more professional help, while Ant is no doubt needing to work for a living somewhere. ;-) More seriously, good video with some insight, and beautiful place and day for some shooting.

[@tgsoutdoors]

How did Ant manage to give this a thumbs up twice 😂

[@funkla65]

@@tgsoutdoors it was probably him and Ed. ;-)

[@MAL-yt4yh]

I love these two. So informative with friendly shooting. What is the typical target distance or range in FITASC?

[@mikeproctor3664]

Excellent video, you are a pretty good shot.

[@danjamison3727]

Great video would be nice to talk about what chokes you would use in these disciplines for us amateurs

[@BertieWynne]

Fantastic video 👍 very informative and a great insight into the discipline

[@bumblesquatt]

Excellent video Johnny, I'd love a lesson with Ed one day!

[@seanohalloran]

Question. When you are shooting O/R do you have to unmount your gun to the holding point or can you keep it mounted ?

[@iantunnicliffe4509]

Really good 👍

[@tomzaronias4937]

It’s always good Bideo With that man excellent

[@walterdl2904]

When shooting doubles may you keep the gun mounted or must you drop to the ready position for the second bird?

[@ImDudePlayinADude]

Around the 15 minute mark Ed says you don't need to dismount, and he recommended on that shot to stay mounted

[@FeralTuckerFella]

I'm not convinced Ed's mum couldn't hit a battue

[@tgsoutdoors]

I heard it was actually his mum Who won the world title …

[@ImDudePlayinADude]

What do these shooters (and other UK shooters) think of american trap? Thats what i have shot mostly, but watching these videos makes me want to try out some other disciplines.

[@johnattwater9606]

Very imformative video , could you just quote the chokes you using & cartridge size .

[@tgsoutdoors]

All Hull Cartridge, All 1/2 choke 60-90m - Hull Pro One 100-120 - Hull Sovereign 6.5 130 - 3” hull mega bombs (can’t remember which exact load)

[@mikedupree832]

Future video request. Can you do a Video where you explain and show flight path of a target by name Crow, Roller.etc

[@QuickShiftMoto1]

FITASC - Fairly Impossible Targets At Sporting Clays

[@mikedupree832]

I like FITASC Because targets tend to be extreme and I don't feel as bad when I miss because of the nature of the targets

[@Patrick-sw2qk]

Great video as usual. Both guns are beautiful, could you provide the brands and models? Looking forward to your next video.

[@neodutch]

ED shoots a Kreighoff. Jonny's gun is mentioned in the other comments.

[@Patrick-sw2qk]

@@neodutch thanks

[@Patrick-sw2qk]

Knew I couldn’t afford either

[@finallevel29]

It’s bollocks 💪💪

[@russp6142]

What gun is Ed using?

[@stephensailer9495]

How is this different from 5 Stand?

[@tgsoutdoors]

You shoot from a hoop, for a very different set of targets, in a different order from a gun down position….

[@charleskittler4330]

Ed sure got the owl hoot going on 🦉🦉

[@tgsoutdoors]

It was the end of a long day, the filters where most definitely worn out

[@charleskittler4330]

Ed is a great teacher and a true UK treasure. Please keep up excellent videos 👍👍

[@tgsoutdoors]

Back out with him this month

[@macbilling6410]

John, what gun was you using? It look's gorgeous

[@neodutch]

See other comments.

[@bikeronnie]

Takes time to write a plebby answer but not the decency to answer the question with the correct answer! 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@mallardcutter7209]

It will be interesting to see this done with steel shot when lead is banned.

[@nicolaiwagner9374]

absolutely no problem with FITASC when using steel, only the really extreme birds

[@jamesmason4681]

My Mrs hates it when I dry mount

[@e-fishinseasportfishingcha9506]

Great Video ! Johnny, could you please share with us what gun you are shooting in this video, it appears to be a real gem in my eyes. thank you and please keep the videos coming.

[@gordy1961]

I reckon that Ed might have done it before you know... just a feeling ive got.. 😀

[@bluesix2843]

…1.42…JC…I’ve heard…Awwkwaaaard,

[@sonysv1]

What 😎 is Mr Carter sporting

[@bgjb-r1499]

Skeet and Trap is hard enough! Lol

[@twinpotracer]

Does physical fitness come into it 😂. ........ George digweed 🤣

[@neodutch]

Pans down to Ed's feet, I'm surprised he's not wearing snake skin boots.

[@jimbo2602]

“It’s how long is a piece of string”

[@saleembarmania5295]

One big owl forgot to show up.

[@jamesacenter7655]

25cm from the apex of your shoulder axis is the measurement.

[@solentflyerparagliding]

...trumpet...😏🎺🎺🎺

[@consumertester5665]

I only just realised Ed is a leftie……doh! Who can tell me which shotguns are being used here?

[@tgsoutdoors]

Ed is on a Kreighoff K80 Jonny a Longthorne Trigger Plate

[@peepsnet]

I am a Trumpet!!!!!!!!!!!

[@michaelplank8966]

[@mattburgin5977]

Can he do random? Seems to be highly relying on 💤💤 Come on

[@mattburgin5977]

With respect, couldn't ask for a better coach

[@pavelmorozov6599]

terrible trigger discipline

[@neodutch]

[@K80Ed]

You should have seen where he had his finger before we started…

[@matthewlardner5328]

Fairly sure he wasn’t demonstrating how to shoot a rifle!!! C🐔🐔K

Does physical fitness help? Old, frail, FAT! I think you'll find in the world of Tweed, we are called "Portly"! 😉
