Are you curious about how to get started or a little nervous about attending your first registered shoot?

Getting started in this sport can be a little unsettling.  Attending your first registered shoot can be down right nerve-wracking.

We were all new to the sport at one time or another, so we'll be glad to share advice and help you get started. Just fill out the following questionnaire and we'll get back with you to help make your entry into Sporting Clays safe, easy and enjoyable.  Some of the information may seem a bit personal, but it will help us provide you with the most specific information possible.

Rest assured, your personal data will not be shared, sold or otherwise made available to anyone other than the ASCA Board of Directors.

Equipment

Sporting Clays requires shotguns between .410 bore, which is very small,  and 12 gauge, which is the most common target caliber.  The guns will be required to fire two shots in relatively rapid succession.  With this in mind, please tell us about the shotgun you will be most likely using?

I have a specific question or concern:

If your interest is specifically with regards to getting started shooting registered tournaments, we may be able to help a bit more.  We may be able to get you a free limited membership to the NSCA, a free 50-bird event at one of the local tournaments, and 50 free shells to shoot it with.  This equates to a no-cost introduction to the sport at competition levels.  Some restrictions apply, but we'll do our best to get you out there and keep you coming back.

Once you've gotten your feet wet, you may want to take a lesson from an instructor, if you haven't already. Lessons can make your entry into the sport easier, or give you added confidence for your first registered shoot. Some folks don't want to start out with expense and time that lessons require, which is understandable. Be advised, if you do take a lesson up front, it will likely stop a bad habit or two from developing, and they are easier to prevent than they are to correct.

Once you've tried it, you may want to join the NSCA.
