www.sporting-scene.com. Sporting Clay shooting is the fastest growing of the Clay disciplines.
Originally the sport was designed to provide practice for the game shooter by presenting him with targets which simulate live quarry.
John Bidwell, a winner of the World FITASC Sporting Championship gives a comprehensive introduction to this discipline covering the equipment used in modern clay shoots. John takes two of his pupils at various standards around five of the main sporting stands with instruction on stance and shooting technique.
Sarah Bayley Ladies European Champion, Tom Sebring International European Champion and Lee Cross Junior English International join John Bidwell to shoot some of the more challenging targets encountered by the competitive shooter. As they shoot the various stands John gives personal
advice to fine tune their styles.
which shotgun do you recommend for shooting on the fly?

John , un saludo muy fuerte desde España. He aprendido mucho de tu forma de tirar y me sirve para enseñar en mis clases.

I am the lady shooter at the beginning of this video and in those days I wore ear plugs for hearing protection and because of my hair you cannot see the plugs.
Also, in those days it was not mandatory to wear eye protection and in fact, safety aside, your eyes are the best way to see the clays.
However, eye protection IS very important and I agree that it should be mandatory these days.
Just bear in mind that this video is 19 years old!!!!
Have fun shooting!
Kind regards
Sarah

Pull this video and re-shoot the darn thing. I shoot sporting clays and safety glasses have saved me the loss of an eye. Twice.

Lots of people shooting, almost nobody is wearing safety glasses. In the first minute of the video, most people appeared to be lacking safety glasses and hearing protection. In any shooting sport, safety comes first, and I'm sorry to see it isn't demonstrated in this video.
