These are all great suggestions, but I would take a different approach. Watch the videos for entertainment value. I love watching them too, but that's about all they're good for. I'd recommend working on your calling and your set up. Getting a shot inside of 40 yards is not that much more difficult, and it's surely a lot more fun and exciting. Just my 2 cents.
Very good advice!!
One thing I would add, be sure that your gun has a super pattern all the way out to 40 yards. This way you will have the "40 and under" range covered, where 99.9% of your shots will be taken!! Taking 50+ yard shots isn't what this sport is about. Practice on your calling ability,the art of sitting still, and patience. These three things will get you your bird more times than trying to bust them at 50+ yards!!
