Sporting Clays/Skeet/Trap
I would like to try shooting some clay pigeons and there was some interest of getting one of these skeet shooting events started.
Note: I am a complete newb when it comes to shooting moving targets so I guess this first outing would be for those guys who are willing to teach/give advice or can tolerate a newbie not being able to hit anything.

Re: Skeet Shooting
I am also game, and don't care if you're good or bad lol. Sunday is usually the best day for me. Horse and hunt is generally the go to spot for me.

Re: Skeet Shooting
Different types of shooting. Horse and Hunt makes it a bit more interesting imo. vs oakdale. You do pay for the difference though. Also it looks like Oakdale is only trap? not a mix of both.

Re: Skeet Shooting
Ahh, I never knew there was a difference!
http://www.fieldandstream.com/answer...sporting-clays Does horse and hunt have the option for sporting clays? |
Re: Skeet Shooting
You know you can drive an hour north of town and do it for free. At one of the places I go dirt biking they have a gun range there. Iam sure you can throw some clays and shoot there. I don't see where not. I have a thrower sitting at home.

Re: Skeet Shooting
horse and hunt is sporting clays. basically like a golf course where you go to 5 different stations. I do believe they also have a trap station but it isn't as fun.
|
Re: Skeet Shooting
Well I'm down for horse and hunt for sure then.
What's everybody's schedule like? |
Re: Skeet Shooting
I will return from some travels on July 1st so I may miss the first gathering but I'm down just about any Saturday or Sunday or any weekday after 5.
|
Re: Skeet Shooting
Basically any Saturday or Sunday would work for me.

Re: Skeet Shooting
If you're just starting out may be easier to try trap. Skeet and especially sporting clays are pretty humbling although they can be more fun depending on how competitive you are. I'm shooting trap again for my dad this season, I think it's about my 12th or so season. Averaging about 21.5 getting back into the swing of things.

Re: Skeet Shooting
I'm down most Sunday's if you guys figure out a date
|
Re: Skeet Shooting
Pat, you should pick a date coming up that works.
|
Re: Skeet Shooting
Any events going on July 10th?
|
Re: Skeet Shooting
I could make July 10th.
|
Re: Skeet Shooting
Err, just realized i'll be coming back from my g/f's cabin.
How about July 24th? |
Re: Skeet Shooting
I believe that will be fine as well.
