    First time Trap shooting

    Took my Model 11 and shot trap for the first time today. I have shot clays before with buddies, hand thrown and just for fun, but never scored. I shot 13, 14, and 17 respectively and feel I did well......I think I'm hooked.

      Wife and I like it, and we shoot trap on almost all weekends if weather permits.

                  Nice shooting.
                  The Calguns first time average seems to be about 23.

                      i upgraded to a beretta al391 tekny's from a 870. wish i went with the higher version of tekneys with adjustable comb.

                      now i'm moving over to a over/under. with the semi, you'll get tired of cleaning the action sooner or later.

                          Thank you. I still need more practice though, I can't seem to hit anything low and right.

                              Beginner just finishing a fall league; shot trap, double trap, skeet, 5-stand, and skrap(trap for skeet positions; trap box on the skeet range).

                              Ton of fun; wish I had tried this years ago. I do need to get out on rifle/pistol range though...
