Pete,
The
new book and DVD are excellent. My scores have dramatically improved
by using the methods. Just thought I would let you know. Good
Job!

Dear Mr. Blakeley,
I just wanted to let you know
how much I enjoyed your dvd. For me, obtaining the sight picture was
extremely helpful in actually being able to understand the correct amount of
lead to apply and to actually "see the lead". The eye cam shots give the
student instant feedback of what he should see on any given target. So many
other videos show instructors breaking birds and explaining what they do
rather than actually showing the student what they should see
in order to break the target. This is the fundamental difference your
instruction and other "watch me break targets" instruction. Great job!! I
highly recommend your video.

Dear
Peter,
I have recently purchased a copy of 'Successful
Shotgunning' as a result of web surfing and reading some of your ideas from
articles in shooting magazines. Anyhow what I would like to say to you is
that your book is head and shoulders above anything that I have ever read
related to shooting a shotgun. Your book is clear and articulate, written
with a logic that has enabled me to file all that I already know into a much
larger and complete body of knowledge which I did not fully understand,
until now. Your book has 'joined the dots' for me. I say again, your ability
to teach and articulate, keeping everything in perspective is commendable. I
have also recently viewed your latest DVD at a friends house. I intend to
get my own copy and accompanying book fairly soon. Before signing off there
is one thing that I would like to ask, and that is when calculating units of
lead, do you calculate out from the front bead or the side of the barrel
nearest the target? Thanks again.
- Yours Sincerely,
- Danielle Skrokov
PS. Peter you probably get a fair
bit of mail all the time. Just letting you know this is from Australia.

“Just a note…after taking part in the Competitive Edge tournament at
Elmfork on Sunday, Travis had more than enough punches to be an A class
shooter. He did not actually think that he did as well as he wanted but it
must have been a hard day for everyone as he was tied for 2nd on
one course and tied for 1st on the other course. NOT TOO BAD!!!
Can’t tell I am a proud mama, can you!!!”

“Pete,
I finally made the trip to Kansas over the Thanksgiving holidays. I had
great work from the dogs and thanks to you I held up my end of the bargain
and shot the birds they pointed. I was 100% on pheasant. I only had one
bird that was not killed cleanly on my first shot but one of my setters,
Libbie was able to make a difficult retrieve and save the day. I passed up
on several shots on quail because I had pheasant loads in the gun but I did
make one of the best quail shots of my life, a long shot across a creek, up
a hill on a bird going straight up over a tree. Thank you for working with
me this fall.”

“Pete,
I can’t believe how effective my lessons have been. Your advice to
calculate range using the houses on a skeet field makes so much sense. I
can now hit 80-90% of long crossing targets that I never connected with in
the past. Great stuff!”

This new Sunrise Productions release is superb. The classroom
graphics, Eye-Cam®
shots and over-all high definition presentation make it
without doubt the best target reading DVD ever produced.

Custom Gun Fitting
What exactly is a custom a gun fit? We often hear it said; "we aim a
rifle but we point a shotgun." Unlike a rifle, there is no back sight on a
shotgun and to use one to full potential, the users eye must become the back
sight. Becausewe are all different shapes and sizes, alterations must be made
to the dimensions of the stock to achieve this. So can you use a shotgun without
having it fitted? Of course. The shotgun, with its wide pattern, is a forgiving
weapon. I have no doubt that you will hit some of the birds some of the time
with a gun that doesn't fit properly. But you will hit more with a gun that
does. As you mount a badly fitted gun, if your eye is out of alignment with the
rib by as little as a quarter of an inch at the gun end, this will translate
into several feet or more at 30 yards.
A perfectly fitted gun depends on two essential ingredients: -
1. A flawless gun mount.
2. The skill of the gun fitter.
