I'm at 1,050 rounds of sporting clays, skeet, and 5-stand, all shot from a low gun start. It all helps!
Yup. Anything you can do to keep sharp in the off season will help. It's interesting that you mentioned low gun start. Perfecting your gun mount will go a long ways in of itself. Maybe have your buddies release the bird on their choice so you don't know when it's coming. Any shooting really is good though.
If you really wanted to make things more realistic, you could mix things up by holding the gun as you would if you were in the field too, providing you can safely do so. Sometimes using a trap/skeet combo field for this is nice as you can have your friends choose whether to release a trap target or low/high house skeet target without you knowing which it's going to be. This not only forces you to initiate a good gun mount, but also puts a premium on good foot work as well. It's likely that your foot position will not be perfect depending on which target is released and to make a good move to the target you will need to step into the shot with your leading foot.
Cant wait 'till pheasant season!
Hi all, myself and my boys and daughter shoot an average of 2 to 3 times a week. Nothing special, just pasture clays. We shoot at different angles and just have some fun and try and sharpen our skills.
We do have a special SxS event that a few of us get together for some shooting and fun....it's really a good time. Today was our 3rd one held.
Here's some pics of the event:

How can you stand not shooting?
