bunnybasha Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 has anyone used the arrow laser shot? is it any good or a waste of time? was wondering if it would improve your shooting if you're an average shooter? the laser is roughly £100 and the laserfire is approx £200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Yes got one and laser fire, got them as I was changing shoulder from RH to LH and used them to practise gun mount at home..... Best advice buy an AA maglight for £10 and spend £200 on lessons you get much further the laser fire is not realistic enough IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southrop Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I have the laser shot. Use it mainly to check gunfit but then only cast. Difficult to check vertical alignment as no account can be made for muzzle flip in reality but gives a reasonable approximation if you know what you are looking for. Maglite is probably better for mounting practice as the torch projects more of a diffuse beam rather than the dot on the laser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clayman Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 The lasershot has two applications. The first is static gun fit, checking the true pint of aim when you mount naturally, and also diagnosing eye dominance issues associated with the mount. The second is in dynamic mount, ie control of the muzzles in the process of bring the gun into the shoulder. Correct use of the Lasershot can dramatically improve the motion of mounting, removing see-saw motion, and diagnosing the quality of the "method" being used, ie pull away, swing through etc. As consistent shooting results from moving correct motions form concious effort to sub-concious reflexes, and the laser allows you to see this i9n the home without spending a fortune of clays, repeated repetition of good mount and swing becomes intuitive, so when you move to the clay range or field, you automatically use the best motion. Like many other teaching aids, it will only work well if you have a good understanding of what you are trying to achieve in the first place, - what is a good mount and a bad one, and also it is not a one evening device, repeated and regular use builds up the automation in the brain you need for live fire later.
