The nearest sporting clay range to me is reservation only- not because it is fancy but due to the course not being used every day and the need to load machines, replace batteries, and sometimes to ensure a trapper is available. Needless to say, the coarse is pretty bare bones as a "fancy" one would have all that covered every day.
In any event, have fun and enjoy being out shooting.
This place has skeet and trap and SC but they only do sporting clays on the weekends, Tuesday evening and Thursday all day. It was just blind luck that I could go this Thursday. I called Wednesday and got a 1p slot but nobody showed up so I was able to shoot with just the caddy or guide or WTF they call him. I was thankful for that because I didn't know what I was doing at all.
