have fun-

our club has a shot size limit on the skeet trap and clays - nothing bigger than a 6, I think, big enough I don't use it for the venues (you can pattern heavy loads at the outdoor pistol bays

and no shooting between sunset and 9AM - remarkably reasonable for NY


my favorite ever regulation was a club I shot at as a guest of a friend back in the 1970's. The club house and skeet fields were on the outside of a curve in the rural public road and the trap was inside the curve. the rule was that if you were shooting trap, and a car was coming up the road towards the club- you had to let far right targets go. Seems that drivers were upset with shot rattling off their windows

seemed like a good rule to me

When I first joined my local gunclub back in the mid 80's you could shoot trap or skeet 24 hours a day 7 days a week . And I hate to admit it but there were many nights I was out there shooting skeet at midnight .
Now they say nothing before 8AM or after 10PM .

Well I did misspeak- skeet and trap (and 5 stand which uses one of the skeet fields) at my club are open a couple days a week under lights to 9PM
