Hey guys,
This is my first post here, I bought my first firearm about 2 months ago, a Remington 870 express. Ive been shooting since I was 14 or so (Im 20 now) and have been doing quite a bit of skeet shooting lately. Everyone tells me that when your shooting doubles to shoot the clay that is going away from you first then shoot the one thats coming towards you. I always did it the other way since you have more time on the target thats going away from you and its easier to find. Ive been doing pretty good at it and got 20/25 last week. Now my question is, is there any rule in competition that states specifically what target you have to shoot first? Because I would like to enter tournaments once I get good enough and I dont want to be practicing the wrong way.
