In the world of shotgunning, precision and performance are paramount. Enter Kick's Gobblin' Thunder choke tubes, a masterclass in engineering that transforms your standard 10 or 12-gauge shotgun into a formidable turkey hunting specialist. At the heart of this innovation is its conical parallel design—a unique feature where the constriction cone meets an extended parallel section roughly one inch long, ensuring consistent patterns with every shot.
What sets Kick's chokes apart is their exclusive directional diagonal ports. These meticulously angled ports create a sharp forward inside edge that expertly stabilizes and slows down the wad for faster separation from the shot column. The result? Cleaner patterns untouched by wads and reduced muzzle jump for quicker follow-up shots—an invaluable advantage when seconds count.
The external ported portion extends approximately 1¾ inches from your muzzle but remains unobtrusive during shooting. Designed at a precise angle of 135 degrees away from you, these ports minimize side blast common in less sophisticated designs (90 degrees or less), making them ideal for tight spaces like duck blinds or trap fields.
Kick’s Gobblin’ Thunder isn't just about technology; it has proven itself time and again on competitive stages. It boasts accolades such as being a two-time winner at both the NWTF Still Target Shoot in Atlanta, GA, and Ladies Open Competition—not to mention clinching victory at the Jakes competition back in '98.
This remarkable piece of craftsmanship doesn’t stop there; it has also been instrumental in achieving numerous grand slam hunts across challenging terrains. By converting factory-threaded barrels into high-performance tools for serious hunters, Kick’s continues to redefine what’s possible with each pull of the trigger.
