I need some help with my shooting. This is my 1st year trap shooting. I began shooting in March as a lefty with a Fausti O/U. Being left handed and right eye dominant, in July I switched to shooting right handed so that I can keep both eyes open. That was the best single thing I have done in my brief shooting career. I'm 50 and can tell you it is possible.
I got rid of the Fausti field gun in May and started shooting a Beretta Tecknys Gold trap gun and like it very much.
For singles I use I/M choke and move to full for handicap rounds. I use 1oz. #8 reloads with 19 gr of RedDot and 8 petal jammer wads.
I have had a few great days where I've scored 95/100 targets. I use a high Point of aim and try to let the target float into my POI, sort of like the Harlan Campell style. I've seen his videos. I can't ease into targets like suggests so I do what comes naturally.
I just cannot get consistent with my shooting. One round I hit 24, the next round I may score 20/21. I'm not flinching, shoot 5-6 rounds in 2 outings/wk.
I think I have the fundamentals down like follow through, foot positions, gun hold points but am frustrated. My speed has gotten much better over the year. I can break targets much sooner than when I started shooting. Any help out there for a frustrated shooter?
