What is the discharge to his right from the barrel? Are they porting shotguns now to reduce recoil?
I learned to shoot shotguns as a very young boy, hunting quail and dove with my father. We learned instinctive hunting. It always looks strange to me for people to look down the barrel of the gun as if aiming a rifle. I get just as good of results "snap shooting" and find the other approach odd.
Just because they say so doesn't make it true.
In fact, just because they say so, automatically raises the specter of lying their pants off.
I wish he’d go hunting with Cheney....
My guess is there is a BFA (blank firing adapter) in the end of the barrel and he is shooting a blank. Which explains the smoke.
OMG.
There’s no limit to the lengths this band of criminals will do to disseminate their political propaganda.
It’s just one thing after another.
Regarding the lack of recoil, that may actually be a 28 Gauge. Looking at the Browning 425 list here, plus how small diameter the barrels seem in relation to his hands, it appears to be that. Also note the 28 gauge has the least engraving with no embellishments that most of the other 425 models have.

IE, he was almost shooting a BB gun compared to a typical trap gun.
Awww...ain’t he cute??
Trying to show the country was a “gunny” he is.
Not.
About as authentic as dukakis driving a tank.
Ask him which eye he closes when shooting skeet.
Zooming in on the picture it appears there is a lot of pixelating around the subject, but I’m no expert in this field.
If Obama needs manly shooting skilz bona-fides, he needs to release a picture of himself shooting a .454 Casull SA Revolver, or some other Very Large Caliber Handgun (.475 Linebaugh would work, too).
One-handed, even.
There is some indication that he left for Camp David on August 4, 2012, late in the afternoon or early evening. Skim through this google search:

And he was wearing different clothes, but that isn’t important, I suppose.
I wonder if the range at Camp David is really so close to the road in the background.
Looks like his cheek would get bruised pretty quickly if he holds the weapon that way.
I’m not a skeet shooter but don’t you usually wear a vest or a pouch of some kind to keep your shells in? Unless you’re a real wussy that has to have someone else reload for...oh, never mind.
Wow. THAT was quick!
Now if we could just get the birth certificate, college records, etc that fast.
Hey, we want a video, not just some crappy picture. I want to see him loading (showing us a close of of the shells coming out of the box, shooting both, reloading, etc.)
C’mon. Where’s our video?
We demand a video. The days of single photos is over, mr. president. This is the video era! Get with it. I thought you were mr. high tech. Wassa matta? Chicken to take the video challenge?
“Hey,y’all, can I git me a Skeet Shootin’ License here?”
