    Tried this advice the last time I visited my sporting clays course and had a dramatic improvement in my score.

    Absolute fantastic, thank you so much. I immediately recognized two problems I have had pointed out to me by others but did not know how to fix them - over looking the rib and barrel dip.

    Mr. Currie, that is the perfect video presentation for my current level of shooting - D Class and hopefully moving up to C shortly. I have watched this video several times now and will put it to use tomorrow at a NSCA shoot. Sometimes the simple technics are the best in most things we do. Thank you for sharing this.

    This was very helpful in helping understand why I'm always tilting my head too much. I've been mounting shoulder first then cheek.

    Thank you for the great video. Just bought my first shotgun Mossberg 590 tactical. I have yet to receive the gun, but instructions from this great video will help me with my due diligence before taking the gun to the range.

    Great piece of advice 👏👏I'm old now I used to shoot a lot when i was younger and i shot a lot better. Things started to go wrong and at one point it got so bad I was going to sell my guns. I have my moments but I'm not consistent this could be a big part of my problem thanks Don really appreciate your advice 🤙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    The problem is FINDING someone you can actually trust who is actually qualified to properly fit a shotgun in your area.

    I am looking to buy a Vortex AMG UH-1 Huey holographic red dot on my shotgun. I'm told that this product will sit too high for a good check weld. As a novice shooter, this may be a dumb question but if the primary purpose of a good cheek weld is aligning sights with the target then is cheek weld still even relevant/important?

    Where exactly on the cheek ledge? I feel two, one closer to my eye above my nostril and the second one between my ear and nose

    • @charliebecknell9830
      @charliebecknell9830 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe if you mount near your nostril you won't be lined up correctly. Practice your mount in front of a mirror. Eyes level, beads aligned with iris of the eye.

  • @nono559
    @nono559 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    When shooting a rifle you want to mount to the shoulder then the cheek correct?

    If this is not done, will it lead to "cheek slap"?

    • @THUvidz
      @THUvidz 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Brian Kavanagh
      Yes, It could, if you mount to the shoulder first you could easily duck your head down on the comb. With the cheekbone on the comb, there is a greater risk for "cheek slap" Plus lots of other problems. Don Currie is spot on here

    So, we were taught to shoulder the gun, but we should really be cheeking the gun lol

  • @operation828
    @operation828 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Do no agree what he said in the video. It does not matter which way of how you mount the gun, ether to shoulder or cheek. He did say a good gun fit will help, but gun-fitting does not mean just the length-of-pull, also has a lot to do with comb hight. Once the stock properly fit to shooter's shooting habit, nothing would matter ether shoulder or cheek mount.

    • @THUvidz
      @THUvidz 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +operation828
      Don't agree, If you mount to the shoulder first, you are more exposed to get your head in a wrong position making contact with the comb

    • @operation828
      @operation828 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      THUvidz It is all personal preference. Now I understand more. Sorry about disagree with the video.

    • @rogerpace9322
