Any idea why the guy in the old photo is aiming horizontally not upward? Lots of electrons have been inconvenienced with comments about how barry could not possibly been on a skeet shoot due to the angle of the shotgun.
Hey skeet geniuses, talk to me.

the shooter in the pick is not actively shooting. You start at each station ‘aiming’ and then react when the target comes out of the house.

You would probably have a higher angle when the trigger is pulled.

In skeet, you shoot at targets coming from a “high house” and a “low house.” You could theoretically be shooting at a variety of angles. However, Obama’s photo shows no artifacts that you would see standing at a skeet station. It looks like he is standing in someone’s back yard.

He is waiting for the release then, he will follow the target, aim slightly ahead and squeeze the trigger.

As others have indicated in trap shooting you start in the “aim”
position with the barrel held just over the roof of the bunker (aka
trap house) which may be sunk partly into the ground. I assume
in skeet shooting the shotgun is held in similar fashion prior to
release of the clay.

My question is what does the photo have to do w/Obamnuts?
Let me guess.....JFK shoots skeet in the early 1960s therefore
Obama shoots skeet in 2013. I don’t even see Barry unless he is
back to wearing Michelle’s pink coat shades again. Nice wig.

Look at the level of JIfkas eyes over the top of the barrel.

Also note Jifka is not FIRING at the level position.
