A Great Book For The Beginner Clay Shooter, -- The book is great for the beginner who is starting out in clay shooting. The book covers all the important aspects of what a person would want to know about target shotgun shooting. From describing the variations between trap, skeet and sporting clays to the different kinds of shotguns, shell gauges and barrel lengths. The perfect first book to get into the clay target sports.

Reviews:

Missed the mark -- I found this book too advanced for a beginner (like me) and not advanced enough for someone who is at an intermediate or advanced level (my son). For example, the author talks about the parts of the gun, but then neglects to have a diagram of what those parts are. At the same time, his advice is very, very basic, so someone who already knew what they were doing may not get much out of this book. There is always a tip or two that anyone can pick up from reading a book, but I think there are books better suited for either the beginner or a more advanced trap shooter. This one isn't really right for either, in my opinion.
