I've been hunting birds for 30 years off and on finally decided to see if I'm doing anything right.
I talked the guy on the phone last night. He said first we'll see what your dominant eye is, see if you gun is the right fit, etc, etc, etc and then we might get some shooting in. Being the impatient A hole that I am, I said if we aren't shooting half way through the lesson(1 hr lesson 50 bucks), I don't want it.
I understand gun fit and all that stuff is very important, but I kill birds, I just want to improve a little.
I have 2 thoughts ... Some of these folks can only go about things one way...my teacher. Its not like I'm going to go buy a new gun if it doesn't fit me like he thinks it should.....OR maybe I should take a chill pill, relax, listen to what he has to say and pick up whatever I can and move on. I think I'll choose option 2.
I'm going to take my Benelli, Weatherby, Browning and Extrema because 1 of them is bound to fit me to his standards.
As much as I'm already griping about him, I'm looking forward to it.
