Trap shooting

[TwoLabs]

Does anyone on here shoot trap in the summer? I’ve taken it up recently, I’m not in a league but it’s fun to go once a week and shoot. Have gotten close to the perfect score, but find myself shooting 20-25 pretty consistently.

I bought a nice thrower for home and to get the kids going. Unfortunately I don't use it near as much as I should. I've never shot trap formally really, maybe one day IF things ever settle down but I don't see that coming for another 20yrs

Used to shoot some trap but not enough to get good at it. I have shot in a skeet league since the early 90's. Did well but then started shooting less and age caught up to me but still enjoy an evening every week during the summer with the guys. Beer after shooting and conversation are the best.

Shot a lot of trap in the late 70's and early 80's. Then shot sporting clays late 80's and early 90's. Now at 79 back shooting SC the last 2 years. Just a middle of the road shooter but enjoy it a lot. Great comradery.

I got a box of clay birds you can have. Send me a PM I can drop them off in West Fargo possibly next week.

Skeet, 5-Stand, Sporting Clays, I enjoy them all.

I worked @ a trap club a couple summers in my early teens. I haven’t shot more than 3-4 rounds of trap since.

If I had a little more free time I’d entertain joining one of their leagues. With having a senior in high school my weeknights are pretty full with after school activities. Right now it’s just fun to catch up with a couple friends for an hour.

Got the 11yr old daughter on the thrower last night for the first time. After a little bit of work I think she hit 4-5 in a row and then would get a miss a few and hit a few. Everything was straight away and at different angles for height. I shot probably 6-8 rounds so she could watch (I'm not the best to be teaching but not many choices) and we got through 1.5 boxes before she decided she had enough.

My son got to start it as a sixth grader at Fargo North this spring. He LOVED it. Went from maybe getting 1 out of 25 to consistently breaking 19-20 out of 25 by the end.

We're both super pumped for hunting season!

I told him if he keeps this up through his senior year, he'll get as many rounds in six years as I did in probably 20!

Traps are alot of fun to shoot at.

Doesn't North Dakota have a High School Trap League like Minnesota ?

Not sure the total in 6yrs but in the last 2yrs our SCI Chapter has gave the Fargo North Team over $10,000, I think over $6,000 in 2025 and $4,600 in 2026.
