It seems there a couple of guys on here that like to stalk me...what do you suggest I do ?
Move to Kalifornia. San Francisco would be the perfect place for ya. Or better yet, I heard Tinkerbell died and they're looking for another fairy.

Uh, sorry, gentlemen. Now as you were saying- before we were rudely interupted by this total nitwit who can't get his mind off of someone else's dipstick. (It was YOU who lamblasted ME, if I remember correctly. Not the other way around)

The point of impact will surely vary, not the shape of the pattern.
Still, I think a billboard/patterning board does not represent what is actually happening in the air between the shot swarm and the target. It is two against three dimensions.
JC Actually, since the speed of the target is known it can be, and was by Brister, easily used to generate a real world 3D image. That is right at tabA/slotB stuff. And the speed of the shot relative to the target pretty much makes the pattern board a picture of what the target sees. over and out Dr.WtS

To HOmerOid: Don't flatter yourself that anyone would "stalk" you. You're of no significance, just annoying. Walking west until your hat floats would solve the problem for the board.

Might be easier to just wait on the 3 old stogies to die.

My Dear Dr., I bow to your expertise and knowledge having you surely perused Mr. Brister's works, which I have not. I also tend to imagine that if he went to all that trouble -and his wife's- it was to render an empirical explanation as near to reality as was possible in his time. Thank you for your clarification. JC

Hamilton Booksellers has the second editon of Brister's book on close out for about $9.00 everyone should have a copy. He did the leg work, even got his wife to pull a target behind the family station wagon to test shot string. (I can't see my wife doing it!

Wonko has said it all. Except for very long range ninety degree crossing shots at waterfowl, the pattern board shows exactly what the target gets, and sees. I am saving my old Country Squire for the day when my wife will agree to pull the pattern board. Of course, Bob Brister has already done all this work, for those who would take the time and effort to read him. Those who worry about shot stringing in normal shotgunning don't have an understanding of simple arithmetic.
