And here we go, wife was a racquet ball champ back in the day and we agreed that maybe a little friendly competition is in order. With her hand eye coordination and my past wing shooting experience we should be on equal footing for a round of sporting clays or two :p

Last sporter I had was when I was in my 30's (very long ago) a Mossy 500 if me thinks correctly..... Will kit her out with a micro if she can manage to even kind of swing this 2x8 chunk of lumber ;)

We will go play with a hand chucker at the ravine first before embarrassing ourselves with the muckity mucks at the Rod & Gun Club........

Lovely gun, I'm sure you'll have a great time with it. And don't worry about the 'muckity-mucks' at the gun club. They're regular folks like the rest of us, they've just been shooting a lot. They will be more than happy to help out new shooters.
 
Dirk, that's great. My wife and I used to shoot skeet together - loser does dishes. Sometimes she would come up to me before my turn to whisper something filthy which wasn't quite fair. Washed a lot of dishes.
 
Looks like fun!

Not to be a mucky muck, but make sure you carry the gun the other way around =)

Clubs shouldn't care about skill. Everybody is learning, no matter how good. Good clubs shouldn't have those issues.
 
Thanks All,
Kinda cool embarking on a new aspect of our sport, filling in another niche as I have been a rifleman first and foremost for my entire life.

10-4 to that, still makes me want to throw up in my mouth a little at the thought of going up on the line with the herd watching from behind. After the initial I'm sure it will be fun!!

Thanks, sage advice and I hear you on the carry..... Been a range member since the mid 80's and have never gone up the hill to the trap/skeet stations?!?!?!

A Merry Christmas to All!!

The Chase range I was a member of had some pleasant shoots for newbies.
Lots of help and encouragement.

Not sure I get the "carry the kritter the other way"...........though.................:confused:
