Best Choke For Sporting Clays

Published by

This is Huntin’ Land, the podcast for landowners and land hunters. If you like to stay up to date on hunting tactics, land management, land values, and land market dynamics, this is the podcast for you. In this episode, Joe and Butch are joined by Jimmy Muller of Muller Chokes to discuss the best choke for sporting clays. We discuss the unique needs of a shooter competing in sporting clays and indicators that it may be time to change your choke. We also talk about common mistakes shooters make when choosing a choke and the variables that come into play when selecting the right choke for your sporting clay game. We explore the advantages of using multiple chokes for double-barrel shotguns and discuss what makes a “good” pattern for sporting clays. We also touch on choke materials, ported chokes, and why chokes can become loose. Finally, we discuss whether there is a one-size-fits-all choke for sporting clay and how to choose the right choke without testing every variable.

As a landowner, it is important to know what your land is worth. You may find yourself asking the questions like,  “how much is my land worth today,” “how much is my land worth per acre,” “how much is timberland worth,” “what is my farmland worth,” “how much is agricultural land worth,” and other such questions. Many factors go in to determining the value of land and seeking out the wisdom of experts is a great place to find the answers to your questions.

Each week, on the Huntin’ Land Podcast, we will bring in various experts to help provide answers to the important questions landowners have.
