4.0 out of 5 stars excellent for beginners, 19 Mar 2006
This review is from: Breaking Clays: Target Tactics, Tips and Techniques (Hardcover)
i got a copy of chris batha's book at the same time as i started shooting clays for the first time, and boy, have i progressed in leaps and bounds. while the book helped me de mystify clay shooting, returning back to it after a round on the range often helps me pick up another tip or two that helps me more.

the language is generally crisp, but what i like most are the illustrations.they are colourful and very well laid out, and very explanatory.

being keen to shoot olympic skeet and trap , i was a bit dissappointed to find onlysmall chapters devoted to them. yet, this book has helped me improve my game, and i'd recommend it to every beginner!

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Breaking Clays: Target Tactics, Tips and Techniques (Hardcover)
Breaking clays is the best book i have read about shotgun shooting.It dispels any myths about shotgun shooting.It starts off with safety, the nomenculture of the shotgun, and the science of shotgun shooting,ie barrels chokes,stocks, cartiages of various loads patterns of shotguns and paterning your shotgun etc.After the science of the shotgun is unravelled gunmount target type, lead patterns and the physical attributes the shotgun shooter needs to become a sucessful clay or game shooter.A must for every shotgun shooter

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction (and guide for the more advanced), 23 May 2008
By Torben Breindahl (Denmark) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Breaking Clays: Target Tactics, Tips and Techniques (Hardcover)
This book is in my opinion an excellent guide for beginners. I was my first book on the subject and I can highly recommend it. All aspects of clay shooting are covered, both the technical details as well as equipment, rules, tips & tricks and training advice. It has a well balanced view on different shooting methods and does not favor any particular style or technique. I like that because some authors (like John Bidwell) spend too many pages praising their own approach to clay shooting.
The book is very well illustrated and easy to read. You can jump back and forward between chapters, which can be read independently. It has a good bibliography section and a special chapter on the mental aspects of shooting.
All together a good investment, that you can use as a reference. I would expect that the more advanced and experienced shooters could also benefit from studying this book.
This hardcover print is of high quality (photos, paper quality).
