[QUOTE="alnpar, post: 4032071, member: 51084"] I shoot a lot of Skeet (not well, but I do OK) I shoot Cylinder in the lower barrel first and Skeet in the top barrel for the 2nd shot on doubles. On the single clays, I strictly shoot Cyl. I use a Browning CXT which is more of a trap, but does well on Skeet. I had a Browning 725 and that is more for Sporting clays. I also use #9 Shot 1 1/8 Ounce 1145 FPS. when I first started out. Now Since I reload, I drop to 1 OZ and I use CB-4118 (8 pedal Windjammer wads.) Also for me, on the high house on station 3,4,& 5 I have to give almost a 3 foot lead it seems. For real good help, go to YOUTUBE and watch some videos. They will talk a lot about foot stance, They may be right but I shoot what is comfortable for me. Have fun, and good luck. It is addictive after you shoot it a few times. And one more thing. DON"T AIM. Keep both eyes open and follow the bird, your gun will follow it! [/QUOTE]
