    Watched Kim Rhode Today.

    I went to Oak Tree to shoot with the Wednesday friends and saw Kim Rhode arrive. I watched her and her friend for around 1 hour on Skeet #3 and was very humbled. Not only do I need to learn how to low hold, but I need to shoot at #3 skeet field so I can shoot the faster birds.

    Very nice person BTW.

      So I figured 24 birds every 5 minutes since they would shoot doubles every other time each. I believe they brought 2 flats EACH. Which means in 2 hours they shot about 500 shells EACH! They took some breaks so it was closer to 3.5 hours, but for each of them shooting 500 shells per session PER DAY! I need more money for more ammo. They achieved this as they would shoot 24 birds a piece standing at one station. Then they would move to the next.

          Anyone heard updates on Rhode's lawsuit against CA DOJ on the ammo law requiring delivery to and transfer from an FFL?

            The honor she brought to our country, she should NEVER have to pay for ammo in her lifetime. Or the range fees for that matter.

            Chute, I'd buy her lunch as well.

              International Skeet----Low gun mount, 0-3 sec random delay on target launch, doubles at every station, gun can not move to mount until the target is launched.....clays launched at 60+ MPH

              I don't think there is an International skeet field in the Bay Area since Pacific R&G closed down. Fun to shoot International...talk about throwing you off your game, that will do it quite nicely

                  I think I read an article where she averages something like 1,000 rounds a day.

                    In this interview, she says she shoots between 500 ~ 1000 every day she's home.

                          I agree that it's silly to charge more. However I am willing to pay up to get used to shooting those birds now and then. I am really impressed with her speed especially since he starts from low hold.

                            Have you tried moving your hold points out yet?
                            The speed of those targets will teach you very quickly that you need to. You won't catch them to shoot swing-through.

                              BTW does it matter with Sansei if you low hold? Or is there some regulation that doesn't allow it?
