Breaking clays alone?

I use a outters spring release thrower. I have it mounted on a table that I made. I have a cable attached to the trigger that runs down to a block of wood that pushes down like a peddle. This allows me to keep my gun at port arms or shouldered for the shot. The drawback is that you only get to shoot straight out shots. I could problably rig a remote, but I still would have to keep walking over to the launcher to reload it. For some things its better to have another person I guess.
 
BigD, thanks for the map' If you look up in the top north east corner you will see Plattsburgh that's about 10 miles from were I live, and as you can see most of the clubs are far away. But at my local gun club range we do have a high and low house, and also a trap house. There isn't anyone there to on site to let you use the range, for that matter over at the rifle range we don't have a range master either. We just come and shoot anytime we want as long as we pay our club dues. I could get contact with the club pres. and find who to see about using the skeet range, but since I just started shooting clays this winter I need more practice time.
 
I saw where you are, your town's website has some VERY neat pics fo the area - but look to VT and NH to the East and there might be a few that are reasonably close.
I am driving a little over an hour to go shoot sporting clays tomorrow for some practice. It is the closest to me, but I really like the game and am willing to drive that far.
 
yea Vt is a option, but the only way to get across the lake, and its a big lake is by ferry its $13,00 each way plus gas.maybe membership costs and the cost of a round, and ammo. I'm guessing 75 to $100.00 TO SHOOT IN vt. I like shooting, but that's pricy. When I go with a another guy. we set my launcher up behind the low house, which shields us and we work on crossing shots. but when i'm by my self its straight away shots
