5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, April 11, 2004
By A Customer
In this excellent book Peter Blakeley presents a wealth of interesting information on shotgun shooting theory and practice. The book is geared to those who want to hit targets more consistently, and understand the how and why of it. The book has good tips on targets in sporting clays and skeet. In addition, there is much on bird hunting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent read, October 5, 2004
Blakeley's book covers a lot of shooting theory and information along with great stories that were entertaining and helped to demonstrate to me much of the theory he describes. He also punches holes through some common myths that every shooter (hunter and sporting) could do very well without. All in all, a very good reference book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nothing booring about this smooth bore classic, July 5, 2009
By ClayCoach (Tempe, AZ) - See all my reviews
Successful Shotgunning is now one of my reference books. Comfortable reading as the author informs and entertains with his wealth of knowledge and experience. He coaches with the awareness that there are several effective ways to hit any target. The English point of view adds even more spice to his book. Well done!
