Why do those low line drive Trap birds require more concentration to hit? I'm guessing, but I'd say that since the shot string must go directly through it, you have less leeway vs. the bird flying through the string somewhere. I always try and drive it right through those line drivers.

And talking about strings, how long do you think they are? I've heard several different variations, don't know which is true.

And then there's steel, which is said to be a shorter and denser string.

Let's take a standard 24 gram (7/8 I think) load of 7 1/2s -- how long is the string? Is there an easy way to measure the string? I'd be interested in hearing what you'all think, Waidmannsheil, Dom.
