First 50 straight, Woot!!

If you were exhibiting some 20 second "routine" between each of your shots at the two ranges I regularly shoot at, you would hear about it.

The first time would be a friendly quip about keeping the game moving along, the second time would be a little more direct.

What ranges are those? Just trap or?

After a bad encounter with a crabby old fart at Metcalf who kept complaining about me and my wife messing up his "shooting cadence", we decided to keep shooting trap for now as wife is still working on her first 25.

Switched to shooting at Sunnyvale and managed a first 50 straight today. Woohoo!!

Did you let him know his incessant whining was messing up your shooting cadence?

BigBear....don't let "one of those guys" dictate where you shoot.
You earned your 50 straight.

There is no caddice rule that I'm aware of in the rule book....there is a 12 second rule which starts after the shooter before you has cleared their gun of the fired shell and the target is recorded...that is an international tournament rule. How it applies to an informal round of Trap is open to interruption

I've shot with OP. I didn't bring my stopwatch, but feel confident it was within 12 seconds. Maybe 5 after lining up on the house.

I have definitely not been shooting as long as some people but what I've learned is If you are not enjoying yourself why bother. I personally am not out there practicing for the nationals. The one time I shot a 25 it was largely due to me not really worrying about breaking the bird but having fun. I was with my daughter just enjoying the time. Shoot I even broke three bird shooting from the hip. Congrats on your accomplishment and above all enjoy YOUR time at the range.
