not that ive seen my hips for years . 😁🤣🤣🤣🤣 great video

I could listen to Mr Digweed all day long when it comes to gun skill . Very informative

Wow. A lesson money can’t buy? What a legend he is!

Thanks George, lesson learned and much appreciated. Not interested in the red dot, but your stance and body line tips set me on the right path.

Great to listen to George Digweed instruct. JC face 15:57 brilliant! Another fantastic TGS production 👊 and 2024 has only just begun 👍

George is a very astute teacher. Great guest, well done. 👍

Johhny, that was the best detailed video you have made in a very long time. detail was understandable and precise. dialogue was very understandable and detailed to the point being made. The why and when and how was direct and to the point. any one cant gain and improve listening to this video. well done

Great video as always. George is one of the nicest people in the sport. Every time I have met him, he always stops to say hello and has a smile. Top Man.

Pure liquid gold, thanks George + Johnny !

The greatest sportsman of our time with out doubt and a contender for the greatest sportsman of all time. And a gentleman to boot.

I only shoot swing though, i find it’s the only way I can consistently hit. Only been shooting 4 months. I’m sure other methods will come apparent as my shooting progress. Brilliant as always.

Another fantastic video, thank you. Great to see George on your show.

Brilliant input from George, and Johnny as well TOP PEOPLE

Fascinating, just listening to a master is always worth concentrating on.

GREAT ADVICE FROM A LIVING LEGEND

That was a great video because I watched the first one last year….Good to see you use an auto today . But George is just a machine . Great job Johnny .

The knowledge is awesome from George get him on again, great explanation we can all learn from

Fantastic video. Great to listen to George

Great video Johnny. I’ve learned a lot in this video. Glad to see you are shooting a semi.

Mr. Digweed is a master of his sport. Excellent instructions, and things that I need to continually keep in mind and practice. After 40 years of shotgunning , I was out last week for some farm pigeon pest control. Like riding a bike one can’t believe that you would get Rusty, or awkward.. what a frustrating outing. Back to basics, and many of the things MR. Digweed coaches. Becoming a capable shotgunner requires thought and practice. I will review this video several times, fix in my mind some of the main techniques, and then back to the silos. The coach compares shooting to Tennis, and I would agree 100%. Golf,Archery,Billards anything really. Footwork and body placement anchors everything and then build from there. Great video and expert advice of this fantastic coach !

Another fantastic video Jonny and He is a legend 💥

A very excited AAR clearly. Look forward to meeting you there 🤞👍

Great video for technics

14:49 The pause between " He touched me... In a way" and " that means I will never miss" I found absolutely frightening.

Aimpoint rules. It's still rewarding and important to be competent with iron sights, but its next level and is a refined tech development aid that changes the game. It enables pure focus on the target at its real distance and promotes good ergonomic posture and handling technique. Once you get used to using one, it's so intuitive. You look at the target, point your body, including the gun where your eyes are looking, and when you see the red dot, pull the trigger. It's faster, more consistent, and superbly reliable. They're expensive but uncomparible quality. If you do get the chance, then persevere and be prepared to change your approach in order to realise how to use it effectively. Revise the conventional relation of gun sights to taget and look at the target in the focal plaine of the target. Even slightly poor technique, imperfect mount, band cheek weald, imbalanced footing and body movement are forgivingly compensated to a degree by the way Aimpoint red dot sights intrinsicly work. ❤

Epic, indeed. Thank you.

Interesting devise and concept. Yes I would say this is for beginners to help with a consistent mount or shooters with eye dominance issues. That said I believe the more you practice and become a better clay shooter the less you want to interfere with you target focus.

Would be keen to try one out as it something new., As for a master class in shooting it was great to learn as much as possible from this legend. Great content as alway TGS 👍

I'm impressed. George talks a lot of sense

I’ve always said lead pictures are like a game of join the dots having a red dot as your sight picture in my mind would give you a 100% visual view of line and lead Georges words of wisdom on swing through make a lot of sense I always use to think maintained lead was the best method for me but i’m now using swing through with as much speed as I can put into a shot.

Superb as always keep up the great vids.....

brilliant vid mt, hes the best of the best.

Awesome video. Took a lot from what George said in terms of stance and the difference between maintained lead and swinging through...

Quality day out with the master of clay shooting 💥👌🏻

Fascinating stuff!

ah finally I waited for this Jonny for a long time at last a lesson from the master

Great video and advice.

This was awesome!

I played a few months with using a Holosun for American trap. Yes, you're employing an aiming point 😱, but at least it's at the same focal distance with the target. Unfortunately, the rest of the sight is a distraction in the foreground. I thought putting the sight as close as possible reduced the temptation to drop your focus back to it, but it's still there, and the less straight away the target was, the bigger the distraction was for me. I am mixxed dominance, but personally I prefer the EasyHit to a dot on a shotgun. I'd probably like this Aimpoint on a pistol, though.

No waffle, but focused on what's necessary. Excellent.

i was a maintained shooter and won a bunch, but 3. years ago moved to swing through , sustained swing through and i have to admit scores are up , miss in front more than off line .. am a believer

Very interesting great , I shoot all methods mainly coming from behind getting the lead seems to work.👌👍

Stop listening to Florent was George’s other advice

I was thinking about the original video the other day and wondered what was going to come of this product.

What a legend. I've had the mick taken for years for having a red dot on my shotgun. They can't gripe at me now! Go Mr. Digweed.

Is there a way to mount flashlight or torch as you say onto double barrels SxS, O/U? What about slings?

Ace instructive video...

JC another great content production, just shows you what you can do when you get the best coaching from a true World Champion who can win World titles over decades and decades, no one time wonder there.

I thought this was great all around for many different reasons. And I definitely understand GD's reasoning on the red dot. It's fundamentally a target focused aiming system as opposed to iron sights or scopes and so seems to mesh better with shotguns, especially as a learning and communication tool.

Great load of info to digest here. Excellent. Can you see a use for it in a pigeon hide, where every shot is different?

Great video!

I'm from the U.S and a trend of sub gauge is getting really popular. Is the 12 gauge still the best option for all application. Meaning hunting, clays, waterfowling? This will help alot?

I am left eye dominate and shot right handed sheet for twenty years. I was HARD to be consistent even with a fitted stock.

I found out from Doctor Colo that I am central eye dominant. I love the concept of this red dot, should I get it to help me?? I am currently shooting occluded on the left and it’s horrible. Looking forward to hearing your advice.

Great Day!

Foot position is way more important than I've been giving attention to. I've been giving pointers to a couple of guy's that are just starting out trap shooting, and Ican say I haven't been looking too much at their feet. Going to have to include that.

If you don't mind me asking, what shooting vest were you wearing? Very classy

I just dont get his foot posititioning, John's feet is placed as he would shoot to the right when we wants to shoot to the left. Meaning feet & hips one direction and the shot the opposite. He's twined up meaning he's swing will quickly drop and he's very likely to miss the shot below. Or am I missing something here?

looks like a great tool, i just enquired with the retailer and got this reply... The retail price for the Acro S-2 will be £750.00. WHAT!!!! ILL TAKE A HARD PASS ON THAT ONE.

I wish you or George would please explain these named target types, crow Roller Flopper Curler. I've been shooting for a while and I hear these names and don't know what the target is. I think I heard someone say a crow is like a teal that you shoot on the way down?

So I don't know how the contraption on the barrel works. You are not looking straight down the barrel unless the target is straight in front of you. If it is a 50 yard crosser your looking down the side of the gun as the gun swings out in front of the target. You can't keep your eye on the barrel and the target and give it lead. Can someone explain to me.

great product but what will the CPSA have to say about it if its used in reg comps

@@AimpointChannel I have S1. Can I trade it?

Looks a nicely made product to improve the eye/barrel/target relationship and some great technique insight. However, eye dominance is a multifactorial issue for which there is NO panacea. Some shooters may experience positive effects from beads, full occlusion dots, side-ribs, spatial gratings or any of the other commercially available aids, whereas others may experience null or negative results. Any product which claims to have produced a single product that “cures” eye dominance issues doesn’t understand the subject matter.

It's a matter of preference in terms of where you want to place the red dot sight on the barrel. If you have a picatinny rail on a semi-auto shotgun, you can use our other sights that are made for this type of rail.

This seems to back up my theory, that we see the "sight picture" in various ways. This product is all well and good, if you can learn to replicate it, without it fitted. Without trying it or seeing exactly what you seewhen using it, it's hard to see if it's any different, to learning to use the bead.

Don't waste your money. You can buy a chinese fibre optic shotgun open reflex sight as cheap as chips - just use a needle to expand the dot into a blazing ball. I use this system on my mossberg for roost shooting and it's mounted on a picatinny much closer to the eye. This is a far superior battery free system that only costs about 20 quid for the sight and another 20 for picatinny adapter.

"maintained lead is get out in front and stop..." yup busted - and a shotkam is how I know that's what happens..

I feel like a red dot will make you 'aim' where most of clay shooting is always said to be point and shoot. I've tried a red dot just because i have it for other things and tried it on clay and just found it so distracting and interfering of my sight line etc.

Sell these to Cabelas in the US and Canada

Maybe I need to try this but Im really struggling to see how this product is useful, even endorsed by big names. It seems like it would just limit my field of view and obscure the target. Maybe its one of those things that you have to use it to know if its any good, but I simply can't wrap my head around it. As soon as you look at the dot you will miss the target I would imagine. Will wait to see more reviews I suppose.

Quanto costa........??

George's old videos on clay shooting advise are the best i have ever seen on teaching new to b grade level guys, anyone starting out should start there, explaina body and foot position in relation to hold/kill points so well and none of the technical labelling some other big name guys try to pass off
