WHAT'S IN YOUR SHOOTING TOOLBOX
September 2010 Sporting Clays Tip
Learning a new skill can be fun. And it should be. And once all the equipment has been purchased - ready or not - it's finally time to step into the box and meet the clay target. While no doubt exciting - it may be a bit humbling as well. Not only do the targets provide all the challenge we want and more, we quickly learn the target doesn't always break just because we want it to.
Don't get me wrong - I applaud determination. But I also know that repetition in the box without the basics - without proper technique - is practice built more on hope than a well thought out plan. It seems, good shooting can be here today - then gone tomorrow. Consistently good shooting, on the other hand, is built on a strategy that includes the basics. It is not a mystery - nor is there some special magic some shooters have and others don't. Every day - people just like you - move their shooting skills forward decisively and on purpose. They do this, primarily, with 2 things: 1) technique and 2 ) a commitment to those techniques - in that order.
Techniques - the building blocks that make up your shooting skills - all go into your toolbox. Because those who stand in the shooting box with the best strategy - who know the right techniques for these 2 presentations - always have the advantage. If consistency is a goal - Paragon Instructors can help you put those strategies - those techniques - and more self-confidence into your toolbox.
