I wouldn't pay a lot extra for a Parker with a single trigger, mainly because I love to hunt with my guns. I also love shooting them at sporting clays, but not for the competitive nature of the game; just the sheer fun of shooting Parkers.
There are those who take clay shooting very seriously and you would never get any of them to shoot a double trigger gun.
I never could figure why there was a SxS trap gun, but maybe that was before the advent of the single barrel trap gun. A skeet shooter won't lift his head, or at least he shouldn't between the first shot and the second, but when we're hunting, and are fortunate to get a second shot, when we weren't fortunate enough to down the bird with the first, or in the case of a possible double, we almost always raise our head, so the motion of sliding to the rear trigger is of no consequence.
As with almost anything, it's horses for courses.
