Rule #2: Keep the head still (oriented on the target)

If you mount to the cheek instead of the shoulder and allow the shoulder to naturally come forward to meet the butt of the gun, you’ll be assured of proper eye-barrel alignment across a broader spectrum of sporting clays targets. Mounting to the shoulder first forces you to lower the head to meet the comb, which frequently causes a misalignment of the eye with the center of the rib. Moving your head as you execute the shot is like moving your camera as you snap a picture. A “quiet head” yields a sharp visual connection with the target. When pre-mounting your gun on a trap target, bring the gun to your cheek first. Then slide the gun back into your shoulder before calling for the target while still maintaining the bulk of the gun’s weight in your hands. This way, when you execute the shot, you know that you have maintained proper eye-barrel alignment and your gun will remain responsive to commands from the brain.
