Gunpoints and Positioning Your Feet


Position #1
Position #2
Position #3
Position #4
Position #5

The gunpoint on each position is a necessary compromise which prepares you for whatever target angle is presented to you. On each position you favor the left angle target with foot and body position; and take a gunpoint that favors the right angle target. This is because a right handed shooter finds it easier to swing to the left from the gunpoint, without any muscle restrictions. Suggested gunpoints for each position are indicated:

#1. - Halfway from middle of trap house and left front corner; 1-1½' high.
#2. - Middle of trap house; 1-1½' high
#3. - Halfway from middle of trap house and right-front corner; 2-2½' high.
#4. - Right-front corner of trap house and 2-2½' high.
#5. - 1-1½' off right-front corner house, and 2-2½' high.

Foot Position
On each station, your toes should be placed on an imaginary line which would parallel the line of flight of the extreme left angle target from position #5.


Note: The line of flight of the left angle target from position #5 represents the imaginary parallel line on which your toes should be placed for proper alignment on all five positions.
