60 Seconds With Gil & Vicki Ash
| | |
| April 27, 2026
Some of the best rounds I’ve shot, though not score-wise, were those when I had missed too many birds in the beginning and then made a determination, “alright, I’m going to see what it takes to turn this around. I’m going to see when it takes for Gil Ash to turn a poor performance into a good performance. Right now, I’m starting over. I’m going to focus on the birds. I’m going to let it happen, and I’m going to shoot the breakpoints.”
This tip came from the book “Sporting Clays Consistency, You Gotta Be Out of Your Mind!” by Gil & Vicki Ash.
