In this episode, Gebben and Karen shoot a very challenging and fun presentation of targets. The first target is a crosser right to left that is following a downward slope. The crosser has some good speed and distance to it. On report is a very fast teal at some distance as well. It’s important to break the first target just right of the line of the teal and not directly in line with and not too late in the flight as well. Hitting the correct break point is very important on this target to set us up for the 2nd shot.

The second shot is hard by itself so give yourself every opportunity for success.

There’s a big right to left battue that requires a cut across technique on report a really fast quartering target. On the quartering target, notice how both shooters actually stay in front of the quartering bird just because it’s so fast.
