I'm so jealous. I bought a 20g Browning Superlight with the idea of shooting skeet again. The gun hasn't had one round through it.

I used to shoot with a buddy who let me shoot his 20g Superlight.

Wish I had known. I saw you guys out there. Was out on the pistol and rifle ranges with my brother and a friend. Would have been good to meet some forum members.

Weather was awesome and Alpine is always acceptable. Was actually saying I need to try my hand at the skeet sometime.

just catching back up after a week long illness; better now... in any case shoot me a PM if you guys go out as a group again. I'm in FW but on the Hurst border so in your neck of the woods. I've shot once or twice informally (as in a buddy in a field with a launcher) but am by no means anything more than a beginner :-)

Andy, I didn't see where you had posted this thread! I put a few of the pics up on the "new shotgun" thread of mine, but thanks for posting these too.

Yeah I had a blast. Better yet, once I explained the game to my wife, she wants to try it out. So we're going to see if we can't borrow a 20 gauge from someone so she can decide whether or not she wants to spend the money on a gun for herself.

Hee hee.

Oh, and BrianSW99 has offered to loan The Annoyed Woman his youth-sized 20 gauge, and is interested in joining us for a skeet day.

It's a disease, isn't it?
