Well done olly, not much skeet shot up this way mainly DTL, thought only those high-fiveing, browning shooting, beret wearing victorians shot skeet :wink:
Just kidding, great sport were you can travel lots & meet good people. What do you shoot with? I,ve got a beretta 682 gold.

I have shot clays for a few years now, I got into it cause the guy who did my saftey test when i first got my licence was the president of the local clay target club and he told me to come out and have a go any time i wanted.
I only shoot DTL and go ok - B grade at the moment but it dont shoot it'oftern enough to get better.
Congratualtions on making the team, that is a top effort

Cheers
James

gday andrewbron
the clay targets shooting community is oretty small so you sorta see everyone at all the shoots and i see about 20-30 juniors around in both skeet,trap anf feild. but there are more in trap. you should get envolved, always good to have new blood at the clubs:) it is great fun and a great way to meet people.



cheers james
