American skeet
Skeet throws crossing targets from a high house and a low house while you move around eight stations, seven on a semicircle and one in the middle. It's a great way to learn leads on crossing birds before dove season. Any gauge that holds two shells works; the preferred load is #9 shot, and nothing larger than #7½ is allowed. Bring a box of 25 shells per round.
International skeet
The Olympic version is harder: faster targets, a variable delay of up to three seconds after you call, and a low gun until the target appears. For practice rounds any 12-gauge #7½ or smaller load is fine. Competition rounds must use 24-gram loads of #9 shot (pellets no larger than 2.6 mm) in a standard 2¾-inch, 3¼-dram-equivalent shell.
Tips
New to skeet? Book Learn to Shoot Skeet before your first full round. Shoot with a group of up to five for the classic squad rotation. Ask the store about trapper availability on busy weekends. Wear eye and ear protection at all times on the fields.
