Ok, I'll admit, I haven't shot skeet in years and years. In fact I probably wasn't shaving last time I shot a round. Back then, I think I was intimidated by the "Old Guys" that ruled the roost so I'd slink off and shoot trap instead. Well, time flies.
Next thing you know it's today and I'm an "Old Guy" out at the range with my 12 year-old son who decides he's wants to shoot skeet instead of our usual trap. Ok, I sez, let's give it a go. Needless to say, after two rounds, I was about as flustered as I could be with a high of 13.
Now that I've confessed my sins and bared my sorry shooting soul, I'm hoping some you 100%ers can give me a pointer or two to set me straight.
For the record, I was shooting a 20 ga. Weatherby Orion (SKB) with improved and modified chokes. I left the skeet choke at home cuz I NEVER shoot skeet! :banghead: My ammo was Winchester XPERT, 2 3/4, 3/4 oz., 7. I nearly picked up 1 oz, 8 but I expect to spend a day or two more at my dove lease and decided to go with the lighter load.
So, what can you tell me that I don't already know???
