Left handed, just like McCartney, Hendrix, Einstein, Dylan, Da Vinci and Beethooven.

Only 10% of the globes population is left handed, but 70% of Mensa members are. So, if you're a lefty, you're likely to have a higher than average IQ too.

Do you lay on your left arm for a while so it goes numb and you can pretend it's someone else?

Yes. What's your point?

Errr ... no point ...

Bet my afternoon was more fun than yours

Wot's all this malarkey about closing eyes while shooting? How do you ever hit anything if your eyes are shut?

If you close one eye you would need to make sure that you kept the same tension on that eye for each shot otherwise you alter your sight picture.

If you keep both eyes open you are not upsetting the equilibrium in your facial muscles surrounding your eyes, and you will therefore have a more accurate and constant sight picture.






This will enable you to hit the tin can and claim your goldfish.

Flood lit American Skeet Shooting at Lakenheath US Base

I find the use of Two Eyes Is best.

My good shooting friend Mr Duso is available for coaching and gun fitting over the winter

Any one Fancy busting some clays u2u me.

We have the guns and are well known on the clay shooting circuit In Essex

Good fun and very addictive.


Left handed and left master eye, Me

Both eyes open but master left looks at the target up the barrel.
that way where you look the gun points.

Aiming is a big No No with a Shot Gun because if you look at the gun you miss.

I used to shoot with a Remington alto with a right hand eject,
only with glasses on mind.

I had a Remington 5 shot gas eject years ago-now that was FUN, expensive on cartridges though............. I used to shoot clays in Essex, lived in Navestock, friends were farmers and we used to set up our own shoots.
