This is an outstanding and comprehensive guide that can easily serve as a single-volume resource for the novice, developing and experienced shotgunner. Written in an intelligent and easily-approachable style, the major portion of the book is a methodical, clearly outlined guide to all shotgun sports.  The psychological factors involved in skillful shotgunning, and the advice and exercises provided here to gain mastery of this most difficult aspect of the sport, is among the most valuable features of the guide.   

My experience with the Warren Watson School of Shotgunning has been invaluable to me as an adult shooter.  His lifetime of experience as a hunter, as a successful competitor and as a highly trained and experienced teacher and coach helped make my successful return to shooting a genuine pleasure.  Warren is a gifted teacher and has managed to translate his accumulated knowledge, wisdom and teaching ability into the finest guide on the subject I know.

“Having read the manuscript, I reach some conclusions. There are many elite clay target shooters. There are many superb shotgun coaches. There are many talented writers on clay target shooting and coaching. In that rarified Pantheon that is home to those that have mastered all three disciplines, however, there are very few. Warren Watson is one of those few. He has made a meaningful contribution to the shotgun instruction discipline. Make room on your shelf for this insightful volume, but don’t place it too far away. You’ll want to reach for it again and again.”
