I cannot remember if I have raised this subject before, hence the question.
When you call and move for a target, what do you see? What is your technique?
One of the reasons for asking is there is often heated debate on American forums about total focus on the clay, you never ever look at the barrels, you are not aware of the muzzles, you don't see lead off the end of your barrels, you don't see lead out at the target because you never see your muzzles or the gap. You only see the target or more precisely the front edge of the target or even more precisely the rings or dimples on the clay surface ( remember Yanks are prone to exaggeration).
So think about it before you answer, " What do you see"?
Let me talk you through a shot, you know where you are going to break it, BREAK POINT, you know where your gun hold will be HOLD POINT, you know the visual pick up point of the target and you know it's flight line.
Now do you just look at the visual pickup point, watch the clay on its line concentrate hard on the clay and never seeing the gun it glides to the break point and smashes the clay.
I would be interested to know how many of you see the barrels, the rib, the muzzle and if you relate any of them to the clay and sight picture.
It may sound perfect to you or it may sound crazy, opinions please
Also factor in both eyes open or squint one, or mount with one eye closed and you will see how heated it can get .
