Mount Method of Simplified Shooting Skills

     The whole thrust of this school is to introduce and familiarize all participants with the Mount Method of Simplified Shooting Skills. Rick Mount's approach to shooting, which he developed as he became the best pure shooter in the game's history includes the following easily learned and remembered concepts taught at the school:

  • Shooting Pads - Valve Stem
  • Anchor Hand - Cocked Position
  • V-Eye
  • Power Pocket
  • Swing, Lift Quick
  • Release Pocket
  • Catapult Position
  • Heel - Ball - Ball
  • Recoil

FORM + CONSISTENCY
= SELF CONFIDENCE = MORE POINTS
