When
I was the Chief Instructor for the National Sporting Clays Association,
Wendy and I had the opportunity to work with Dan on numerous occasions.
His resourceful but focused approach to teaching takes shooting’s
often-complicated mechanical equation and reduces it to its simplest
form. This demanding skill is, in itself, a mark of a competent
teacher. To
The Target possesses excellent technical information. Using the
building block process he often refers to, Dan patiently shows you
what to trust in the shooting box. Specific checkpoints guide you
through the shot, removing much of the mystery that surrounds hits
and misses. To The Target straightforwardly displaces apprehension
in the box with technique and positive images. Gradually, using
the methods in each chapter, he teaches you the purest shot of all
using the mental game. All of this culminates in a fluid move on
the target that is, in all ways, swift, elemental and dependable.
For
those of you familiar with Dan’s style of writing, you’ll
once again discover this book, too, provides you with a solid, informative
foundation and a no-nonsense approach to the art of shotgunning.
Dan’s passion for teaching and his contagious enthusiasm flows
from the pages that follow. His confidence in you, the reader, never
falters. To The Target cites a wealth of common sense recommendations,
all presented to the reader in an easily understood format with
superb use of visualizations.
As
shooters and instructors, Wendy and I genuinely enjoyed this book.
You will too. As you turn the last page, it becomes obvious to you
that Dan has spent years refining this information. With polished
explanations, To The Target delivers a capable and satisfying shooting
system. We applaud Dan’s insights and persistence.
For
those of you who wish to improve your shooting skills, the study
and application of Dan’s recommendations provides an honest
opportunity to do so.
We
wish him, and you, the very best in sporting!
