This Month In Clay Target Nation

By

The June issue of Clay Target Nation is packed full of tips and tactics that will help you find more success and have more fun on the sporting clays course or the skeet field this season. Plus, we’ve got coverage of some of the spring’s biggest events.

In our Training Tips columns, you’ll find some helpful insight from Paul Giambrone III on what it should look like when a squad takes to the skeet field, while Bill Elliott offers some tips on how to train for sporting clays on the trap field when you can’t get all the way out to a sporting course.

The skeet season has kicked off, and the biggest event of the spring, the Triple J Classic, gets full coverage in this issue. On the sporting clays side, American shooter Braxton Oliver’s big win on the world stage is celebrated in our World English Sporting Clays Championship coverage.

When it comes to advice and helpful tips, we have plenty of reading for you. Victoria Stellato advises skeet shooters on how to reach their goals, while Todd Bender offers eight signs that you might need an instructor. Clayton Rue has some tips for sporting clays shooters who are struggling with targets that aren’t thrown in a straight line in his “Nonlinear Algebra” article. If you’re thinking of hosting a charity shoot at your club, you’ll appreciate our article from someone who has been there and done that (successfully), and don’t miss Haylyn Hanks’ article on eye health. Finally, we asked three skeet champions about the guns they used to win a world championship, and you’ll appreciate the answers from Houston Deshotels, Melissa Hinton and Kevin Monteleone.

Shooting for Rewards Program Being Phased Out

By

Shooting for RewardsThe Shooting for Rewards program, which rewards members with points for shooting registered targets and offers a catalog of items the points can be spent on, is being phased out over the next two years. The program will end and the store will close on January 1, 2028. All unused points will expire on that date.

In the meantime, points can be earned and spent until the program ends. The five-year points expiration timeline remains in place.

Items will be removed from the store as inventory is exhausted. High-inventory items will be offered at discounted point pricing and will be announced as that happens. During the last three months of the program in 2027, everything remaining will go on sale with deep discounts.

You can find your points on your My Home Page. Go to the Members tab, and you’ll find My Home Page at the top of the dropdown menu. In addition to seeing the number of points you have available, there is a Spend Points button that takes you to the catalog.
