Most shooters like to shoot the teal when it is at its peak. However when you are shooting a true pair or a teal that is very far away that method does not always work.

 

The common method is pass through. When shooting a teal with the pass through method you will hold the gun above the trap. As the target rises past your barrel you will move your barrel from beneath the target and pass through the target. As your barrel passes the target you pull the trigger.

 

A common mistake shooters make when shooting a pass through on a teal is we tend to stop the gun when we can’t see the target. This lets the target get too far past the barrel and causes a miss. So I will let you in on a little trick we use that will avoid this. Hold the barrel off to one side or the other of the line of the target. What ever side is comfortable for you. This let’s you see the target when it rises out of the trap. You never block the target out with the barrel. You move your barrel up passing the teal on the side and just roll the barrel up over the top and squeeze the trigger. You never lose sight of the target and you will actually see the target under your gun. A trick for you over and under shooters is when the bottom barrel gets over the top of the teal target pull the trigger.
