I am in the group with Joe Wood. I rough shoot birds.Shots taken at any angle sometimes with only one foot planted on the ground. I shoot best with guns having 2-5/8"- 2-7/8" DAH, 1-3/4" DAC. I can NOT hit a blsted thing with guns of "Modern" dimensions. When S&W first introduced their Elite Gold, 20ga, I handled several. Couldn't get down on that gun. Always looking an inch over the top having a great view of the top of the barrels. More drop makes you pull the butt away from your shoulder on high, overhead shots, but that rarely happens on quail, pheasant, or snipe. Ducks, driven birds, doves...a different matter.
