Miter joints shooting plane vs miter saw

[John Britton]

Here are 2 pics of a miter joint. One using my best miter saw & blade; the other using a shooting plane after the miter cut. The wood is curly maple.

Big difference. I have not made a shooting board yet for 90s only 45s. Might be time

What is your plane of choice? Rob Cosman recommends the Wood River 5-1/2
