Shotgun
Safe & Fun!
It doesn’t matter whether you’re looking for a few fun hours on the range, whether you want to tune up for an upcoming hunt, or if you want to improve your scores while shooting clay targets. I’m here to help.
Mental Game
Shotgun Shooting is a mental game. Anything I can do that gives you confidence will help your shooting. This is true whether you’re brand new to the shotgun sports or have years of experience.
Lessons
When we meet on the range my first job is to see where you’re at with shotgun shooting and then begin by teaching whatever I believe will best meet your immediate needs. I don’t teach set shooting lessons because everyone has different goals and learns differently.
The Proper Gun?
I’ll help you choose the proper shotgun, its’ price range, gauge, which action style, the proper gun weight and perhaps a recoil reduction device.
Gun Fit
I’ll help you determine your proper gun fit. This can’t over-emphasized. If your gun doesn’t fit, you won’t shoot it well. I will work with you and your gun to achieve the best possible fit.
Comfortable & Confident Shooting
I’ll show you how to hold and handle your shotgun to give you the best results. How firmly you should hold the gun, where you want to position your head to the gun and then the gun to your shoulder and where your non-trigger hand holds the fore-end is essencial for comfortable and confident shooting.
I usually supply very high-quality shotguns while teaching like those by Krieghoff and Perazzi . To the best of my knowledge no one else in this area teaches with shotguns of this quality. It mostly depends on which guns I think will fit you best and what you’re trying to learn.
How to use your eyes to give you the best outcome!
I will teach you where to focus your vision before the target is presented. Then I’ll explain the fastest way to visually acquire the target when it’s in the air and when to pull the trigger based on what you see.
Use & Care of Fine Firearms!
I always emphasize the safe use and care of firearms!
