In that case, Spleen, I suggest you and Dad try out the different games and see which one ringeth thy chimes. Maybe all of them will, I've never met a shotgun game I didn't like.
And each one has it's advantages. Trap teaches precision, skeet teaches a sustained lead method of shooting that's invaluable, and SC/5 stand teaches versatility.
They all improve gun handling because you're handling your shotgun.
Trap calls for a tight choke like IM, SC uses a variety, and skeet demands,uh, skeet chokes.
At the start, use the cheapest load of 8s you can find. After a while, using better ammo will pay off, but you don't need it right now.
HTH....
