Shotgun shells and Cigars

[mrtr33]

You ever shoot skeet? I always have to have him do the hi-lows separately. Some of those old guys kill it, though. I'm much better at trap. Asking for one of those hand-pull throwers for Christmas.

Just do trap. If we get enough guys we start to have contest. Who is the fast shot, and such.

Damn. I was thinking of getting back into shooting a little trap real soon. Been playing golf every weekend for about 7 months straight. Tore my bicep monday, so no golf for a while. I really want to trying sporting clays. There's a community called Myrlte Grove being developed about 15 minutes from the house. It's like a golf course community, but it's built around shotgun sports instead.

I have an 870 and a side by side I got from my dad. The side by side is by far my favorite bird and clay pigeon gun. It's shorter, so it's easier to swing. You can pull off two shots much quicker than a pump and still track targets effectively between shots. The second barrel is choked down further as well, assuming your second shot will be at a target further away. It's also very easy to clean.

My 870 is fun as well. I bought an 8 shot tubular magazine extender for it. Just for fun to see what the tactical feel of a shotgun was. I had aspirations of finding a pistol grip and an old barrel to cut down to match the length, but decided against it. 9 shells makes for a very heavy weapon that's slow to swing.
