Any Trap Shooters here?

Just wondering, took it up this winter, it's a ton of fun!
Originally thought I would just use it for practice for eventually getting into some bird hunting, but its such a good time, I might just stick to the clays until I get better (which could be never).

Would love to try skeet at some point too if anyone knows a good place to try that....

I started shooting trap many years ago and after several years got into skeet. The difference was drastic but worth it. If you plan to do any bird hunting it can only help you. Its a blast...very challenging.

Yup. My second addiction! 2 guns, reloader, components and good word the lead prices. Just as expensive as fishing if not more! But fun as hell!!

would love to try sporting clays too...

it's true it can get expensive, which is why I have to hold myself back from shooting over 100 rounds a week!

My future father-in-law got me into shooting skeet. I try to go at least once every couple of weeks but with the fishing season here, that'll probably take a backseat unless I only have a spare hour or so.

I've been shooting at a club in Foxboro.
