I know some of you may not think its necessary but I am looking to buy a nice o/u shotgun and would like to have it fitted. I do know practice helps more than anything but this is something I've always wanted. Would also like to find out about some shooting clubs in the mid tn. area. All advice is appreciated.
Also new format is nice. Have'nt been on in quite awhile. Thanks

its a must to have a shotgun fitted. proper fit will put you on target quicker than months of practice. most gun store shotguns are designed to fit all until gun manufactures started producing shotguns where you can adjust the stock. proper shotgun fit is basically as follows: look into mirror with shotgun mounted as if you are going to shoot. at maximum you should only see the colored part of your eye. remember always bring the gun to the head not the head to the gun.
for gun club locations look at nssa.com for a range in your area someone there should help you.
