    Trap shooting and gun rental?

    Alright, so I lucked into meeting a girl that would prefer some outdoors stuff over a fancy dinner. BONUS!

    Anyways, thought a cool date would be to go trap shooting. I don't have anything to do that, so I'm hoping there might be a place that rents that stuff and has someone go along with you or help you a bit.

    Any suggestions?

    Ive got a mossberg 20 gauge you might be able to barrow its not good with long shots but its the girls shotgun and not being used a bunch. As far as ranges i'm not sure of any that rent guns or walk you through it. The one we went to in delevan seemed very nice as far as employee's go i'm sure some one would be able to help you thru your first time. It was also pretty cheap. Bring about 4 boxes of shells for each person and shoot 4 rounds wear ear plugs and safety glasses. Last time i went i forgot my ear plugs and my ears rang for a month

    Boxhorns on Muskego lake rented guns when I shot there years ago. I would give them a call to see if they still rent guns and also explain your situation to see if they would let you shoot by yourself to give you a chance to see how it's done. They usually can find time to help you as long as they aren't too busy.

    Boxhorn in Muskego as mentioned above. Think their rate is like $1.50 a shell or something like that.
    Actually going tomorrow night to shoot night trap.

    That's an awesome average! I don't shoot trap nearly as much as I would like to. I would be lucky if I hit half lol, but at least I have a pretty gun to look at while I suck.

    I went for my first time to Cudahy Sportsman's Club and there was a guy there nice enough to walk me through it. It's not hard to be OK at skeet. It is hard to be consistent.

    I would like to know more about Waukesha Gun Club though, I pass it all the time on the way to work.

    Also, if you go out to Eagle (McMiller) you can skeet shoot all day with a day pass. Just bring a box (or two) of targets and ammo and a second person. One person shoots while the other one works the thrower.
