The choke on a shotgun "chokes" the end of the barrel, compressing your shot. Therefore creating a tighter pattern. Kind of like a nozzle on a hose. If you turn it on without a nozzle it will come out thick and not go very far, put a fine tipped nozzle on and the water will stay together and travel farther. Hope this helps.
