Skeet shooting tips to help shooters shoot their best!

I shoot 1/2 and 3/4 chokes from 16 yard line using 1150 fps cartridges. Would you reccomend tightening up the chokes to 3/4 and full and a faster fps ammo to shoot off higher handicaps?
Past 25 yards I recommend full choke. As far as speed. 1150 will break the targets as long as you are confident. Most shooters I know shoot a faster shell.
Station 1 high house is very easy to take for granted and miss. Awful way to start a roubd
Missing High 1 sucks.
This is either a parody video or what not to do. You haven’t shot a registered target, not a certified instructor and obviously have no idea how to actual shoot skeet. Nor could you ever shoot doubles worth a damn.
Nice, just need to save up my pennies for this one.
If you break low house at center stake, will be tough to hit high bird for doubles.
The art of shooting Springing Teal!
Nice guns
Well done, good insight
Thank you!!!!
Can’t imagine why anyone who owns a shooting vest for 6 months washes it 15 times. I be had my same vest for 15yrs use it 3 times plus per week and because I wear it over a shirt I’ve yet to wash it and it still looks like new. To each their own.
what choke bro
I hunt with modified
Does anyone know the actual angle relative to the shooter of hard- and quarter-angle targets from posts 1 and 5? Thanks.
I am sure someone might have figured it out. However not all trap fields are set to regulation. From station 3 I believe the targets can go 44 degrees total from the hard right or left. That would make more of an angle on station 1 and 5. Another factor is wind. Wind can push the target creating more or less of an angle depending on the wind. You are overthinking it.
@@DeanBlanchard Jeff Meloy told me that NORMAL hard-angle targets from posts 1 and 5 fly at an angle of 38.5 degrees, assuming that - the way we are measuring - a straightaway is 0 degrees.
Good theory. Thanks for the info.
Your the best guy to explain it so easy .I'm a new shooter but I'm finding it hard to kill the clays .
I have a problem with my DT11. The top lever is getting harder and harder.
My go to beretta gunsmith is Coles in Florida.
Then you'll get that low, hard right and your going to be chasing that target to hell and back because it was blocked from view by your barrell. This may work better on sporting clays where you have a set target line. That all changes with a trap setup with the wobble turned on. Just my 2 cents worth.
The main concept is to set up to see the target early and to minimize gun movement. You would have a lot more movement shooting wobble trap. Thanks for the comment.
@DeanBlanchard I completely understand the concept of minimizing gun movement. Some people take everything they see on the net to heart, and all of the sudden your the bad guy because your tip didn't work in the scenario they were shooting in. Just an observation. Thanks for the video.
Excellent lesson and analysis of how to approach practice. Thank you.
Thanks!
Really like your understanding that not all peoples eyes work the same and the visual point is specific to the individual. My eyes focus slower than most, so having a soft focus a little further from the window helps me see the target more clearly before it gets past my hold point.
Thanks
My question is why are the magnetic barrel weights for the DT11 so expensive as there is nothing High Tech with them. They should be priced at least half of what they are at today. Nice Gun
In my experience in my personal case, it was definitely pitch . Custom gun fit fixed it.
your whole premise assumes a specific methodology .. maybe ok for a beginner lesson ...
… keep your eyes open😆
😄
Great explanation of eye dominance and why it’s important. Dean I am going to introduce my 15 yo grandson to trapshooting. He up to this point has only shot air rifles. He is right handed, left eye dominant. He is very athletic so I am wondering if I should start him shooting left handed? My only concern with doing this is he lives out of state and will only get to shoot when he visits so he won’t get to practice very often. I’m hoping he likes it because he has a gun club only a couple of miles from his house where he could shoot more. Your thoughts and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Terry
Totally makes sense. Thanks Dean.
You’re welcome
Excellent! Minimal gun movement. Another example is a long tower-based crosser staring way out of gun range and gradually getting closer. Or a shot at an incoming target from a bridge where the target is 25 yards below the shooter.
Great examples!
Nicely done!
Thanks
Dean, a really informative video, thank you. I’m now going to watch all the skeet videos you have posted. Keep up the good work! ATB! JC from across the water.
Thanks! I hope they help you improve
Thanks, Dean!
Great job explaining this Dean. Thanks.
Good video and instruction. As you said, everyone is different. Noted your hold point...much further out than mine which is about parallel with the house. I am a 62 yr old skeet shooter. I like a better connection to the target so like to hold closer but am a AA shooter.
I am glad you enjoyed the video.
It does not work on everyone. Some people need a patch on their glasses. Use painters tape. Some people only have one eye, so it's tough for them to keep both eyes open.
I agree nothing works for everyone.
Make sure the gun has extended forcing cones. Make sure the pitch of the gun is correct for your body. You can add weight by adding a mercury suppressor to the inside of your stock. Have a decent recoil pad, not just a butt plate. You can also get a Simms Limb Savor boot (get size large) to add to the end of the stock. Make sure you are pulling in the gun firmly. If loose, the gun will beat you up. It's like a nice hug, not a death grip. Make sure your stance is correct. Weight to the forward side. Both knees unlocked (slight bend) Have at least 10% or more weight on that front foot.
Dean great video. Do you provide private lessons?
I do provide private lessons
Excellent! What really helped me was to visit the sporting clay range and shoot solo as singles. I shoot until I can hit the particular target 5 times in a row. If it takes, a box of shells I will shoot the 25 shots at the same target. Although I usually shoot singles as a solo shooter, sometime I have a 2 second delay to simulate report pairs.
Fantastic
Nice!
Thanks
Great video! In my opinion, inside the stock, the better or maybe more expensive recoil reduction systems should move the compressive movement part "before" the cheek pad, so that your cheek will not get beaten that hard. For example, Precision Fit Stocks, Beretta A400 Kick_Off Mega and TSK recoil reducer.
I would agree.
quick question for the bunker: at the same stand, are the left, center, right machines have any angular/orientation differences other than their relative positions? Thx.
The setter can turn the machines left or right and up and down to set desired course angle.
@@DeanBlanchard Wow, there will be many possible trajectories. Must be fun, thanks!
Very well explained thank you
Thank you!!!!!!!!
Your welcome
Hey dean its Logan! Awesome channel!
Thanks! Just subscribed to your channel.
Hello dr. I have taken sessions from orthopedic or physio but I have seen so little difference that I have been able to practice for 1 hour even though it also includes medication/drugs. I have been taking this thing for 4 years or because of it my performance is also affected. I am already down, please tell me what can I do and how can I recover?
Try calling Dr. Josh Swanson. He is going to need to see you in person to give you any real advice. www.correctivechiropractic.com/colorado-springs/
awesome face
This helped a lot some days i get worked up if I do bad on 1 station and some days it isn't as bad
Glad it has helped you.
Looks like fun! How many targets in a typical round? Is it 25 like trap and skeet? I'm assuming those plastic target are reusable?
What club is that in Tucson? I'm going to Tucson next month and might give it a try
That was at Tucson trap and skeet. Missed targets can be reused. Hit targets can usually use the white center again.
Get your gun fitted professionally !! You can’t do well if it doesn’t fit. Comfort is another plus. 😀
Absolutely
If your ever in oklahoma. Snake creek south of glenpool Oklahoma, has one. You should stop and check it out. Able spire is the manager.
I have shot there. Able does a great job! I plan on going back if I am in the area again.
@DeanBlanchard me and my masonic clay team shoot there the second Saturday of every month. Maybe if the stars align. We'll see you there. Lol
Pretty good information. New gun? ALWAYS the pattern board. Mos shooters have said for skeet, 60/40.. I don’t know about the other disciplines. Would help if you covered it. 👍👍
Thanks
If you are having a gun with out choke sir
If you reload your own ammo you can load the 12 gauge as light as 3/4 ounce and 1100 to 1200 fps. In an 8 lbs. 12 gauge the 3/4 ounce loads feel very light but I would suggest going 1 to 2 steps tighter with your chokes. Naturally neither the 7/8 or 3/4 ounce loads will prove reliable in an unmodified semi auto but they are a treat in an O/U or Pump.
Great solution
Thats why i have a tsk stock, perfect fit
A good explanation but the audio is not very good.
