I've never shot sporting clays, would love to someday.

I've shot trap a handfull of times and do it every once in a while to remind myself why I don't like it.

I shoot skeet because I like the interaction with my fellow shooters. We joke around, help each other, and it is always a great time.

We also like to play "throwers choice" on the last line of the night. Granted there are not alot of choices, but you never know what button is gonna be pushed. It can be pushed as soon as your action is closed. On station 8 you walk from 4 to 8 like you are hunting.
