You are free to set whatever rules you want for the shoot, or any of the events. In competitions that stipulate a low gun such as FTISAC Clays and Int'l Skeet and clubs I have been to shooting "Modern" Skeet, along with a few local chapter Vintagers events have had well defined low gun rules. I have seen a good number of people premount or do what you say and call it low gun and it's generally ignored. Personally I don't see the point of holding the gun an inch or two off the face and calling it low gun, just premount and be done with it. I was just wondering if "field rules" included a low gun and how it was defined. Thanks for the clarification.
