Hello,
I'm going to my first "formal," (people other than my friends and family throwing clays off the deck) clay pigeon/skeet shoot this Thanksgiving. We are going to Resthaven Park in Castalia, OH. I've always been an excellent rabbit hunter, pistol and rifle marksman, but just lack the experience in shooting targets in the air. I've watched some videos online of tips and techniques but nothing is really standing out to me as being really helpful.
Out of my shotgun collection I feel the only acceptable one I have is a 12 gauge Ithaca 37 Featherlight with a 28" barrel, modified choke and pink plastic fiber bead on the front. I bought a case of remington 8 shot gun club target load.
Any advice on how to bust these clays? I don't want to get skunked and want to enjoy it. Do I lead like 6 inches? Right on? I really don't know what I'm doing without practicing first which I won't be able to do.
Thanks
