It's 3/4 and full for me for everything, both of my guns are fixed choke.

Mmmmm........interesting. thanks for all your replies.

 

the only time i have to shoot at the moment is at our local venue on a wednesday night ( under flood lights) and due to the layout max distances are around 30 yards.

 

some lads are on full/full and others 1/4 and 1/2, personal prefference i guess........what got me thinking was the lads using semi autos dont get a choice and obviously use the same choke for both shots and they return decent scores.........i appreciate that distance and disapline has alot to do with it, but to the average club shooter is it just pshycological ???

 

thanks again

a lot of shooting is psychological. e.g. if some one dosen't get on with a rabbit well they would see one and think 'oh no, not rabbits. i don't like them'. and by thinking that they have pretty much talked them selves out of targets. you can even talk people into missing targets, not that i ever do that:whistling:.

shooting is all in your head and feet!

why feet? they dont move the gun do they? in know you have to have them in the right place but your arms lift the gun and your hips rotate it.

Unless your feet are in the right place your hips can only rotate so far.......... footwork is the key

footwork is a major part of shooting, that and hand to eye cordination
