And all the gear
Just a little something I find very amusing.
I go to alot of competition shoots, and without doubt at every one of them you will have the shooter's "with all the gear"
Now by this I mean the brand name skeet jacket, the most modern gun. Leather gloves and rose tinted shooting glasses.They will stand there and talk complete bollox about their shooting with the barrel of their gun resting on the "special leather tab on their brand new shooting boots.
We are all standing behind these yuppie shooters. with our ordinary everyday shooting equipment waiting for these guys to perform miracle shots and leave us in awe with their accuracy.
It takes them 10 minutes to get their stance right, how hard is it to put your left leg in front of your right or the other way around if needs be, wait for the clay and shoot?
They fire their 10 shots and come away shaking their heads saying " jesus they are a tough one".
Now dont get me wrong there are alot of guys who wear this and will leave you for dust but for some reason they just dont stick out like the others.
Guess I am just saying to novice shooters dont rush out and buy the whole shop and end up looking like a complete fool. Try your shooting ability, get a loan of the glasses off someone at an event( most shooters are more than glad to help new shoters and give them tips and advice).
If they help then get them.
The same can be said with guns of any kind, dont buy it cos it looks the nicest or the price is the best.Fire at few at targets.See how each gun feels and handles. If it means you have to wait that bit longer to save it will be worth it.
Remember you shooting is for enjoyment not for fashion awards
