paulos Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Sorry I forgot you are county champion at some discipline or other, Low 7 is the same as high 1, while it looks like a going away BIRD it is not. It is coming from your right hand side and it is not going directly away, it is quartering. However slight but it is still quartering. How would you as champion shoot low 7? would you start with your muzzles at the trap house and then swing like hell? No of course you wouldn't you would aassume a hold position similar to what I described and then let your eye to hand coordination deal with the sight picture. Which is how maintained lead works. You cannot shoot trap (although you do not say which discipline) with maintained lead and in my limited experience with shooting DTL it is very hard to shoot it with any method other than to react and shoot. I agree here that station 7 isn't a true going away bird. I tend to shoot maintained for most things but not for low 7. This is just because I shoot it quite quickly, so I really just put the gun up straight onto the clay. If I shot it where I shoot most of the other skeet targets (ie. Just past the peg) then there is no reason why it can't be shot maintained. It is quartering, albeit it at a rather acute angle. Personal styles I guess. :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
