Well the whole Geek Posse showed up last night. Everybody did really well. Deanna was spotted shooting with her eyes open. Pretty much everyone except Chilly made their average. I shot 20 in practice and 19 in the book. This week I was all about consistency in mount. You know what? If you put the gun in the same place every time you almost can't help breaking birds even when you're pointing poorly. Ergonomics really is everything in a shotgun.

I suppose that's why the BT-99Micro with the 13.5" LOP that Charley loaned me forever ago when I was shooting 6s and 8s let me hit 20. Because it really fit me well. Fortunately for me the Mossberg also fits well and only cost me $200. Anyhow... I think the thing I need to do now is make mounting identical, repeatable, and thoughtless. I think that'll get me the next few birds to move up from moderately good punter with an average of 17 or so, to good shooter with an average in the low 20s.
