STRAIGHT SHOOTING BOOK- A WORLD CHAMPION’S GUIDE TO SHOTGUNNING - ANTHONY I. MATARESE JR
Read the book and practiced what I read. After 10 cases, my scores went from the mid 80s to the low 90s. Outstanding book for the beginner through club competitor. Clear concise and straight forward. If you are stuck or struggling to get to the next level, read this book and practice what you read. The next level will come much faster and it's cheaper than lessons!

Straight Shooting
Anthony's new book, Straight Shooting, certainly provides a "bang for your buck." This book starts with the basic information on sporting clays and continually drills down into the intricate nuances of every type of sporting clays target thrown. The 2-5 page description on how to shoot each target is easily understandable and spot on. I am a masterclass shooter (more like an average club shooter) but found Anthony's tip on how to shoot a 70 yard teal target to be invaluable. In fact, it helped me run the teal station and win the tournament with a 94. Without question, I would recommend the book which is clearly written by someone who has been there, done that and won that!!

Awesome book. The kind you keep around and read more than once. Very detailed and lots of pictures to help demonstrate. Definitely worth the money.
Clay shooters supply seems to be one of those dying bread kind of companies that actually cares about the customer. I wouldn't hesitate to buy whatever they have that you need.
