dougall Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 I guess you are trying to 'benchmark' your own scores? A typical club shoot average will be 60-70%,good shots will be 70-80%,excellent shots 80-90% the best 90% +.If you went to premium grounds/competitions ie Hodnet/Southdown/RBSS classic opens etc..then 10% worse scores... If you shoot 4 times a year dont expect to improve,if you shoot at least once a month and have lesson 2 scores ,certainly when starting out should improve quickly! Look at CPSA www if you want to see more about averages/classifications etc...personally am not CPSA just shoot for fun,although take it half seriously whilst shooting... atb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super sharp shooter Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 (edited) I would say 70-80% I shoot clays once a week and rough/wildfouling once a week the more you shoot the better your score will be Edited November 14, 2011 by super sharp shooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maidment78 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 If I am honest and I never am I would say between 50 - 70% depending on how I am feeling on the day, seem to have better days in really windy weather for some reason and never do well on the right to left, think it is something to do with the earths rotation,,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iggy Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 As has been said, I think it largely depends on how often you shoot, how long you've been shooting etc. I started about 18 months ago and shoot 100 Sporting once a week, for the first 6-12 months I was averaging around 50-55% but over the last 6 months or so Ive gradually creeped up to 60-70% (low 70's on a very, very good day) I know it sounds obvious but it defintaley feels like the more you shoot, the better and more instinctive it gets, but practice is fun and if it wasnt we would'nt do it in the first place. The thing to do is shoot as often as you can and remember to enjoy it, my scores have got better since I stopped worrying about them. All the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyska Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 I'm rubbish at clay, on a 50 bird sporter maybe 20 if I have a good day, although I get a higher success rate on pigeons, I think its because I get very self concious with people watching me, stood behind me.

huffhuff Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) I think an important thing to do is get out to as many different shoots as possible. Don't stick with the one that's the closest and most 'familiar'. Shooting at the same ground each time, week in and week out doesn't help. It gives you a false sense of how good you actually are...regardless of the change in layout you might get there. Psychology comes into it also. If you shoot the same place each week, with the same faces...you feel more at ease and less under pressure. The same layout but in unfamiliar territory, with lots of strangers around queuing up behind you...watching your every move, making noises when you miss etc.. will kick you in the balls and drop your average (but ultimately make you better) So, go further afield and vary where and/or what you shoot. Just my two pennies Edited November 16, 2011 by huffhuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bi9johnny Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 between 75 to 85% depends on the day but bet i dont hit a damn thing next time for stating it on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timps Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 At Manchester Clay Club my member average is low to mid 80’s the last time I looked on the handicap sheet. At CPSA registered shoots its currently 77.2 according to them. On a good day I get into the 90’s, on a bad day into the 60’s, all head related and nothing to do with the difficulty of the targets with me. I try to shoot 100 registered at different grounds each week, apart from ******* skeet, I don’t do ******* skeet. :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
