Default anyone shoot trap/skeet?

i just got done with a turkey shoot and had a blast, i had never shot with that large a group of people before. we had 6 total and i won one round, runner up in 4 of 6 total. it kept coming down to me and my girlfriends step dad, he borrowed my girlfriends mossberg 20ga with full choke and was whoopin ***. i ran 250 rounds through my old wingmaster 12ga, my shoulder is a little tired. if any of you guys shoot post up, maybe we can get something organized in the north tx area!

I used to shoot with a national champion shooter sponsored by remington, with a little good training, 22 or better every round, its soooooo much fun, and relaxing. Not to mention whoopin' the **** outta everybody is wicked too lol

It's impossible not to go shooting in my family, lol! My Dad and I are into collecting firearms and we've always got to go try out the new toys and our favorites. We probably go out once a week at least. It is, quite literally, a blast!

i just started shooting skeet in the last year. sometimes i go with guys from work to the Elm Fork club in Irving. they have a 'sporting clays' course, where you shoot skeet in the woods like you are simulating real dove hunting.

I love trap/skeet shooting. There is a great place over in Katy that has an excellent course. Did it not too long ago for part of my friends bachelor party.

Not to get off topic but I love shooting skeet and clay pigeons too and would like to find a group to do it on a more professional level. But have any of yall been out dove hunting in the past week or so. I went out last night and it was crazy limited out with 15 birds in about an hourish it was a blast!

I haven't been to an actual range to shoot clays in probably 10+ years, the place I used to go lost there's due to a neighboring business. Me and a buddy usually shoot at his place in Decatur. I've heard elm fork is nice. As for doves I haven't been out yet, I'm waiting for my buddy to get back on leave so we can hit up the quails on his land.

I would be down for a Clays day.
I could even bring a few extra guns if someone needs one.
