Gil Ash of OSP Shooting Schools demonstrates why shotgun shooters shouldn't look down the barrel, nor at the bead. By focusing on the target you might see fewer targets but you'll surely break more. (NSSF Video)

  • Ha! I when I saw the title, I thought you meant actually looking into (down) the end of the barrel. I was shocked that one would need to a video telling people not to do this. Boy, do I feel silly. Anywho, thanks for the tip!

  • These vids are greatly appreciated Mr Ash. I'm sure before youtube, people HADto travel and pay to get good info. I'm a rookie and I"m going to watch them all.

  • @crazydodgeburnout thats what he is saying watch the video again

  • i like this guy.

  • Somewhere back in time someone tipped - do not shoot with only one eye I guess?

  • Nice!!!

  • @ElseyM2

    Ummm... I see two beads (or thumbs). Go to 1:20. My question stands.

  • @crazydodgeburnout

    If you focus on the target rather than the barrel, you'll never see two beads and two barrels.

  • Maybe would have been a good idea to also show WHAT to do - not just what NOT to do?

    I 'discovered' the Kentucky Carry method last year and have been practicing it. It's much easier to handle a 3" mag with 00 buck for home tactical, and in tight quarters it makes perfect sense.

  • I certainly can grasp the concept of focusing on the target, but if you're now seeing two beads and two barrels, how do you find the appropriate lead on the target?
