The most important thing in shooting (besides safety of course) is determining your dominant eye. I found out my dominant eye is the left one, and when I started shooting from the left my hits improved 100%.

I love skeet shooting!
I haven't done it in years, but I used to have a Browning 12 gauge automatic with a Cutts compensator and a nice skeet trap. What a fun Saturday afternoon!

Congrats! I was in Utah last week and went shooting with my youngest sons. They like the M1 carbine best. I have evolved from wanting to do the shooting to watching the boys do most of it.
At first, I watched them for safety's sake. Now, I get more enjoyment out of watching their progress and natural competitivness emerge. I magine someday soon they'll want to shoot my more powerful arms. I keep the weapons in a full size gun safe.

I used to shoot a lot of trap with a Remington 1187 (12 ga). I had a great time - but reloading all week so I could shoot on Saturdays got to be a chore, and then my favorite range closed down. Oh well. The guy who bought my shotgun was sure it had only been fired a few times. I think I must of put 7000 shells through that thing, I'm just fastidious about cleaning and oiling I guess.

I remember firing my first shotgun, a 12ga Wingmaster aboard a rolling ship headed to the Bahamas. I broke 3 out of 5....not bad for a scrawny kid.
