    Default Shooting schools in PA?

    Greetings all.

    I recently purchasd a Beretta Onyx Pro and was interested in taking some formal classes on trap/sporting clays shooting as a means of improving my pheasant hunting skills. I don't seem to find any listings for PA. I found a couple of places that will do individual instruction (LVSC & Wing Pointe), but that's not what I'm looking for.

    Is there anyone in PA or a nearby state that does a soup-to-nuts class on clays shooting?

    The range I belong to, the Lower Providence Rod and Gun Club, has trap clinics every wednesday evening from May-September. It is for range members only. I'm sure there are gun clubs closer to you that offer the same kind of thing.

    I joined Fleetwood Fish and Game late last year. They do a monthly trap shoot, but don't put on any clinics or classes, at least none that I have seen posted. I wanted some instruction before taking part in the shoots and possibly looking dumber than I am already .

    It's shame these clubs don't do public classes. It would be a great way to boost membership and get more people interested in clays.

    I you were not so far away I'd be glad to spend a couple hours with you....... that goes for anyone on the forum. I'll do the first one free!

    Maybe .............. Setup a clinic of 5 people and cover travel expenses, we might be able to work something out!

    Thanks for the offer. I would certainly consider it. You're about a four hour drive away, which is not a big deal to me. I'd be willing to do it over a weekend. How do you normally schedule instruction time?
