Need some advice on firing posture and hold..

i also notice you grip the forend making sure some of it sits on the tripod not the barrel of course yet you are able to grip the remains forend so you can still roll with the shot…no part of your hand touches the tripod

They break down in 3 pieces and easily fit in my suitcase.

In regard to forend resting on the sticks, true. Also, I have the Els padded sling which works nicely almost like a sandbag lying flat on the sticks.

Sounds like the Stock may be a bit short from the banged knuckle and bruised bicep.... Practice shooting on and off the sticks lots of good drills out there .... When shooting a double your hand should always be between the barrels and what ever you are resting it against or you will change the point of impact... hopefully you have not developed a flinch... I always end a range session with either reduced loads for my Big Bores or a .22 to re-establish good shooting form.... prees the trigger see the hole..
 
A few more trips to the range, a nice tripod and I will figure it out quickly.... .375 or 9.3X62 most probably the later will be my next gun in near future.

I’ll just add a quote - “The .450/.400 NE - The first double you should buy, and the last double you should sell - Dr. Kevin Robertson”

Hello Doug,
I am Philippe from France and plan to go hunting Caprivi in 2026, Oct.
I have read on AH you had some time in Vic Falls after hunting. May I ask you with whom you have planned / organized the Chobe NP tour and the different visits. (with my GF we will have 4 days and 3 nights there)
Thank in advance, I will appreciate your response.
Merci
Philippe

Hi Walden. Good morning from England, Chris here (The Englishman!) from Croatia. Firstly it was a pleasure to meet you and Michelle - a fellow Sanderson! I have finally joined AH as I enjoy it very much. Glad you enjoyed the hunt and your write up which I read on AR was very good indeed. I am sending on WhatsApp pics from Bojan of some of the animals hunted recently. Take care and best regards. CS.
