Sporting clays are an outgrowth of trap and skeet, but geared to simulate in their courses the actual conditions of bird and rabbit hunting. After a brief history of the sport, the author gives an especially clear and helpful description of sporting clays. And then he offers expert advice on which gun to buy, how to get started, basic shooting, what chokes, loads, and accessories are best, and much more. The book is filled with helpful photographs and there is even a glossary of sporting clays terms. The Sporting Clays Handbook is an alternate selection of the Outdoor Life Book Club.

3.0 out of 5 stars
informative introduction to sporting clays,
By kinsman@colorado.edu (Boulder, CO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sporting Clays Handbook (Paperback)
This book provides a good overview of the sport. The contents however is dated, and there is little of instructional value. Overall this can only be considered a primer for further reading.

Shooting Sporting Clays,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Sporting Clays Handbook (Paperback)
This is the book I wish I had read before I got started shooting clays. It includes an introduction and much in depth information on a wide variety of topics including basic shooting techinques, fundamental information on shotguns, chokes and loads as well as guidance for various shooting situations in sporting clays.
It is well written and clearly illustrated.
