In the realm of shotgunning, precision and performance are paramount. Enter Kick's Gobblin' Thunder—an engineering marvel that redefines what a choke can achieve. At its core lies a conical parallel design, an innovative fusion where the cone of constriction meets a rarely seen 1-inch parallel section maintaining consistent constriction. This synergy ensures superior pattern consistency by stabilizing and efficiently separating the wad from the shot column.
The ingenuity doesn't stop there; Kick's has incorporated their exclusive directional diagonal ports into this design. These outward-angled ports create a sharp forward inside edge that not only stabilize but also slow down the wad for faster separation, resulting in cleaner patterns unmarred by interference. Furthermore, these diagonal ports significantly reduce muzzle jump and recoil—a boon for shooters seeking rapid follow-up shots with increased accuracy.
The external ported portion extends approximately 1¾ inches from the muzzle yet remains unobtrusive during shooting sessions—a testament to thoughtful design. The angled ports at 135 degrees away from the shooter minimize side blast commonly found in other chokes with lesser angles like 90 degrees or less, making it ideal for tight environments such as duck blinds or trap fields.
Proven in competition, Gobblin' Thunder is twice crowned champion at both NWTF still target shoots in Atlanta, GA and NWTF Ladies Open Competitions while also securing victory at Jakes competitions back in '98. Its prowess on grand slam hunts further solidifies its reputation as more than just another accessory—it transforms standard factory-threaded barrels of most 10 & 12 gauge guns into specialized turkey hunting tools.
