OKCGC offers a skeet class once every couple of months. It usually sells out very quickly. You might look at the training schedule on their website and se e when the next one is.

What level of skeet shooter is he currently? Is he a beginner, intermediate, or advanced shooter? That will help pair him with an instructor. The NSSA has 4 levels of certified instructors. We have 8 Level 1 (Beginner) instructors, 2 Level 2 instructors, and 1 Level 4 instructor at OKCGC. We also have Paul Giambrone, a multi-time World Champion, that comes once a year for 3 days. He will be here in May but his classes are already full.

Also, are you talking about actual skeet? Many people use the term “skeet” when referring to trap or sporting clays. All 3 sports are very different.

The advantage of skeet over the other shotgun sports is that the clays are in the exact same spot over and over all the way around the 8 stations going the same speed. :) :)

It’s the leads that are the challenge - 0’ to 4’ as you going around the field. The Oklahoma wind can really throw a wrinkle into the game. 😀

But once that's figured out, it's the same over and over. I've shot in north of Enid for over 30y, zero wind break. Unless the wind just happens to push one down or up, it's all the same over and over.
