old'un Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 Enjoyed watching your unedited video, lots of school boy errors (which we all make) but we all have to learn, looks like your almost trying to aim the gun like a rifle on some shots, your best bird was from 2:55 in, do you shoot with both eyes open? Are you looking at the bird or the bead? The one good thing about the shotcam video is you can analyse your mistakes, I look forward to seeing some more, thank you.

Ye that was the shot of the day I try shoot both eyes open ... I have been an air rifle shooter from a kid so sometimes I do stop the gun I’m gonna try and iron out all these faults I I think the shotkam will help to analyse what I may be doing wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ditchman Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 really enjoyed that video...............what chokes are you using and what shot size ...........you pricked most of the birds so you aint far off ...seems you are shooting a tad infront... the trouble with using a shotcam...is you start to track the birds before you pull the trigger...which for me can be disarsterous slow down ...up..... thro ...bang........... as i said before ....loved the vid...you are blessed with some good birds and countryside ...

Dougy Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 Good post Jacko 😊 Jacko, not many put up vids of misses, and not many talk about the missed Rabbits Fox's or Deer come to think of it. I certainly dont because i dont miss anything... Get more clips up, un edited please it obviously shows parts of our sport that some never ever see. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 "Practise makes perfect" and you seemed to be getting more comfortable (and effective), as the video went on. I enjoyed it and thanks for posting, it would be nice to see many more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewuup Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 Wicked video mate , everyone misses and everyone misses easy shots ( some looked bit far away but that comes with time and practice ) keep them coming not everyone on here is a pro shooter or hater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) As fresh face stated, the first ones you missed looked like way in front. Have a watch of pigeon shooting 30th December video on here. Birds look about same distance as yours but half the lead and dropped. Cameras can make birds look much further away, so I'm assuming they were still within range. As others have also said a few goes on the clays at longer shots will help you see what sort of lead they need. Great videos keep them coming.
