Hey all, has anyone ever shot sporting clays with both front and rear fiber optic sights? Do you think it's sort of cheating or would you think it was a hindrance?
So I went to shoot sporting clays for the first time at a professional course with a friend of mine who invited me and brought along the old 870, currently my only shotgun. It's set up for turkey season right now with the Truglo Gobble-stop front and rear fiber optic sights that attach to the rib, and I was doing fairly well with the rear sight on there. I was initially worried that it was going to get in the way, however I found it to be somewhat easier than normal to bust clays, as I could lead the target more accurately.
Do you think it would be bad form to leave the sights on for the next time, or does it not matter? I wouldn't want to seem like a noob at the gun club (aside from the fact I'm using an 870 and everyone else is using over unders!)
