[QUOTE="scottb42, post: 2186236, member: 27603"] Doubt I'll be of much use regarding newb suitability since I've only been shotgunning one time since moving to OKC. When I went to OTA I told the range guy that I was new to the range and he gave me a quick run-down of the trap equipment and cut me loose, but I've been shooting trap and skeet on & off for years so I already more or less knew what was going on. If it's just you & your dad, you might be able to join a squad that's forming up. Usually there are a couple veteran shotgunners in any group and they can help you out. I'd consider meeting up with you out there myself but I'm out of commission for a while with work and travel, probably the earliest I could make it would be Memorial Day weekend. Also make sure you know which game you want to shoot... [URL="http://shootprado.com/trap.php"]trap[/URL] and [URL="http://shootprado.com/skeet.php"]skeet[/URL] are similar but are definitely not the same animal. For new shotgunners I believe that trap is probably easier while skeet is usually more frustrating. Once you get your leads figured out skeet is more fun. Others may disagree, but that's been my experience. [/QUOTE]
