Morgan claims they have been making the pad for "more than a half century". Believe it or not, 1960 was a half century ago. I figured the picture was not old because of the baseball cap.

Think of it as relaxing your muscles instead of contracting and tightening your muscles when you want the gun to go off. The problem is that for most people, trying to switch back to a pull trigger is not easy. The brain needs to be retrained, at least for me it does.

Frank, have you been able to shoot pull triggers without any problems?
I shoot alot of sporting clays with a Browning and I have not had a problem yet. I would love to try a double release to see how that is. I totally agree about how just relaxing the hand is sooooo much better. Thanks, Frank

Bill I agree with you the pic appears to have a late 40's early 50's tone. How are you making out in the snow down there. Still got power?
Dean I got got the same feeling when I first looked at the picture. The face looked familiar like I had seen it in an old shooting Magazines. Paul
