I don't do a lot of clay shooting but because I don't want to. A combination of being a dad to two tiny kids (five months old and two years), in combination with my preferred shotgun make it hard to make time. The Shotgun I shoot is a double barrel, 16 gauge, 1939 Fox Sterlingworth that was my grandfather's. Hardly the right weapon for trap and skeet but I love it more than any other shotgun I've used. It gives me the added built in excuse for shooting 15 or 18 when the others are hitting 24 and 25. Hey, It's a field gun! What do you expect? The bummer is not being able to shoot steel shot through it so it's either a pricy day at the range or a few hours in the basement, loading. -Turkish Prawn Sounds like fun!
