Shotgun Choke and Pattern Explained

If you're new to the world of shotguns, the selection of an appropriate choke and shot shell might be a little confusing. In this episode of Backcountry College, Clay Hayes explains how different shotgun chokes and shot shells can influence the pattern and shot density in your target.

We look at the difference between a full choke vs modified choke and discuss where one might be a better choice over the other. Then we shoot a few different shot shells to look at pattern density. If you're planning on turkey hunting, knowing how to pattern a shotgun will be important.
