The November issue of Clay Target Nation is packed full of coverage from the World Skeet Championships — but don’t worry, it’s also got plenty of tips and pieces of helpful advice for all shooters.

In our Training Tips columns, Paul Giambrone III  has some solutions for shooters who struggle when swapping between rifles or pistols and shotguns. Meanwhile, Anthony Matarese reminds sporting clays shooters that breaking targets isn’t the same thing as being successful.

The 2026 World Skeet Championships concluded in early October, and this issue is full of coverage of Connor Thigpen’s big HOA wins at the World and the Mini World, as well as details on the Hall of Fame banquet and the grand reopening of the newly remodeled and expanded Hal duPont NSSA-NSCA Museum and Hall of Fame. There’s also a photo gallery where you can see lots of action shots and behind-the-scenes photos.

On the sporting clays side, some big events get coverage in this issue, including the South Central Regional and the first-ever World Super Sporting Championship, held at Northbrook Sports Club.

There are plenty of helpful articles in this issue, too, including a spotlight on the new NSCA Champions Coaching Circle and its elite members. Dr. Richard Colo takes an unflinching look at flinching, while Marty Fischer shares some insights for sporting clays shooters who struggle to break the second target of a pair. Haylyn Hanks offers 10 tips for youth shooters, and finally, John Shima chimes in to remind shooters that their purpose for shooting might change over the years — and that’s OK.
