Yeah, I did about 50% on Trap...want to see how it translates to Skeet @ LR

 

[onatsky]

LR Can we do a round of trap first as a warm up then skeet for the rest of the evening?

 

[travistheone]

T,

I can bring a 20 gauge and box of ammo if she comes.

 

[3rdRcn]

I appreciate the offer Travis but she won't be coming out for a bit to shoot skeet, I kinda wanted to start her out with trap cause I think it's a little easier learning curve. I'm thinkin I'm gonna get her a beretta 12ga, everybody says they kick less than my benelli and I think that's pretty soft. If anybody hears of a nice used Beretta auto around make sure and give me a shout.

That would be cool by me, I'd be good with a couple rounds of trap before we shoot skeet.

You may want to do an edit, my friend.

Good choice with the 12 ga. I have shot both a 20 ga semi and a 12 ga semi two rounds back to back and found that the felt recoil is more with the 20 ga. I am assuming because the 20 ga is a much lighter gun. My girl used to only use a 20 ga for shooting trap until I convinced her to use a 12 ga semi. She loved it.

While you're borrowing his, why don't you let me borrow yours for a few weeks J/K

She shot a 20ga at Pintail and did fine with it but the wind really showed the weakness of the gauge. I pointed that out to her and she agreed to try the 12. After talking to a few buddies whom I trust implicitly for advice and are very much into shooting clays they warned me about her growing out of the gun in a very short period of time as she gets more proficient. I don't want to spend a grand or more on a shotty to have it be worthless in a year. They also agreed with your assessment that the 12 kicks less than the 20.

You are more than welcome to borrow my shotty any time you would like to. I'm gonna go with a IC choke this time and see how she does, if you wanna shoot my gun all night we can just swap back and forth or I can try to get Joe's before Thursday.

I appreciate that, I really do. I like that gun a lot, I'm trying to save my allowance to get one, but I'll keep shootin' my $250 dicks special

And hopefully with the same luck I had at BCGF the other week, that was pure luck though

Maybe your mom will buy you one for your graduation present and even let you keep it in your room.

 

[Biggie313]

my trap score is steadily rising, up to consistent 18-21

I already have the gamo .177 heat seeking death machine in my room and that's all she'll let me have. Unless...............................................
