Looking at the shadow line cheekpiece on a Flues SBT (a shadow line is certainly crafty if not ahtistic) you'd think that comb is just too thick for me as I don't have eyes on stalks. I soon learned that by raising my right elbow a la the Joe Morgan "pump" (a good habit for any shooter as it raises the pocket and lifts the comb also) I somehow got my eye over the centerline of the gun. At least this is what appeared to happen as I began to break 16 yd targets with consistency. Could be just post hoc fallacy; I've spent a lot of time sitting around cranking my elbow up and down while trying to feel what happens to the pocket with my left. I still can't see how a high elbow "simulates" the conditions on a cast-off stock but in my case it appears to.
