This Month In Clay Target Nation

May 27, 2026 By hdyer

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.
