Successful Shotgunning by Peter Blakely
|
|
Our Price: $25.00
|
|
|
Successful shotgunning isn't an inherent trait, it is a skill and it must be learned like any other skill and this is the perfect shooting accessory to help teach this trait. It requires systematic study and the ability to accurately calculate the variables of moving targets. Peter Blakely's coaching methods involve an intuitive technique that is based on pure logic and a systematic breakdown of all the variables involved. In this book, you will learn how the experts shoot. Over a period of time they build up a personal mental repertoire of sight pictures, which they can then successfully apply to each target, regardless of whether it is a quail, dove, duck or clay target. They then have the ability to see a subtle but consequential target/barrel relationship on every shot and adjust to each different shooting situation.

The extraordinary shotguns produced by the craftsmen of the Basque Country are no longer a secret. Their shooting qualities, beauty, and great value have been extolled by a host of pundits, not the least of whom is Michael McIntosh, who wrote the foreword for this, the second, revised edition of Terry Wieland's already comprehensive book. Wingshooters of considerable means and everyday bird hunters alike have found guns that suit their tastes and their bank accounts from makers like AYA, Arrieta, Ugartechea, and many more.
Here, in a vastly expanded treatment of the subject, Wieland provides a completely updated guide to the guns and gunmakers of the Basque Country, reliving history, going inside manufacturing facilities, discussing design and assembly, touring the region, and sampling its food, wine, and warmth. This time, there are more than 150 color photographs to accompany the text and show precisely how the guns and workrooms look. There are three new maps, as well, including one that will allow visitors to navigate Eibar like a seasoned veteran.
