I like Zippy's tip on taking the last squad position and learning by watching the ohters. As for Ziggy be even older than us, from some pics i looked at of one of the recent groups Ii will feel old enough amongst the twenty somethings. At least my 870 with a field barrel will fit in with a group ranging from what looked like a 24" Mossberg semi to various pumps with long barrels to even a Citori.
I think Jim may be right about that Benelli simply needing a proper cleaning. It sure looked pretty but could have been filthy on the inside. |

Zippy13: I did Don's introductory skeet clinic today at Triple B and he was great, and the club was very nice. I presented a real challenge, especially given I had the pump. I did get a double, but using his expensive Berreta O/U. My mount isn't that bad, my LOP is too long, I keep looking at the barrel, and he showed me how to pump and be able for a quick second shot. Of course he showed us a lot more of the essentials to shooting a shotgun. For a few bucks I sure got a lot of stuff to work on, while having a nice day.

Glad to hear you had a good time. I was concerned that the place might have been underwater after the recent storm. The view of fresh snow on the San Gabriel Mtn's was probably a little distracting. After your time with Dan, now things like: stance, foot position, hold point, acquiring the target, swing, lead and follow through have a more precise meaning for you. Just out of curiosity, how large was the class?

Zippy. The class was 9. If you want to see some pics of the group they are at
http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=402191 . You will ID the handsome young man holding the 870 with the LE forend, but yes that stuff means a lot more now. As for the view, I grew up with it but it was at its best and I have to say I miss it. Last edited by TheKlawMan; February 28, 2011 at 01:42 AM. |
